India women fight to enter temples
For centuries, temples in India have used "tradition" to keep women out, but now women are increasingly fighting for their right to worship.
The patriarchal managements of shrines that bar women devotees have been facing unprecedented challenge. Several hundred women took part in a march from the western city of Pune towards the Shani Shingnapur temple.
"Our aim was to enter the sanctum sanctorum of the 350-year-old temple which is forbidden to women," said Trupti Desai, leader of the protesters and member of a local women's rights group.
Though they were stopped and detained en route, their spirited attempt succeeded in lodging their protest in the national consciousness.
This started after the temple trust had carried out a "purification ritual" because a woman had climbed the prayer platform and touched the deity.
Ms. Desai says it is her "constitutional right" to enter any temple and blames patriarchy for keeping women out.
"These are man-made traditions. God does not differentiate between man and woman. He was born of a woman too," she says.
For her insistence on entering the Shani temple, Ms Desai has also received death threats - last week, a letter arrived in the post, signed by "an opponent". I ask her if she's afraid. "Not at all," she says. "I'm doing the right thing. I won't back down because of some threat." Disponível em: . Acesso em: 25 fev. 2016.
