Abstract

One of the heated argument which we all are well aware in recent times is that the prohibition of the women's entry in Sabarimala Temple. Kerala's Sabarimala Temple is one of the temples which allows all the religions and castes without any discrimination. It is a well-known fact that Sabarimala Temple is the second largest seasonal pilgrimage subsequent to the Islamic Holy Site of Mecca which is situated in Saudi Arabia. Unlike other temples in India, this temple is quite significant about the dress code of its devotees which denotes that the devotees are equal before the Lord Ayyappa. The authors in this research article would like to cite out the historical background of the pilgrimage along with the reasons as to why women aren't allowed inside the temple and also the practicality involved which would substantiate the insightful reasoning for the restriction.
