It is not matter of differentiation or partiality. <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Temples</st1:place></st1:City> are a source of Positive energy. This is why while going to a temple we are felling peace of mind and happiness. Some acts like visiting a a temple without bathing. Going to a temple after eating meat of othe non vegetarian food. Throwing hair or nails, spitting in side the temple etc.

Anciant people want to avoid the same. The best way was to restrict non Hindus who doesn’t believe in all these. And they were not wrong. In the present scenario people are not ready to accept these facts and they are following the old tradition.

We need to change this slowly and steadily. And it will take time. It’s a tradition of hundreds of thousands of years.

You can see in some of the temples in north <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:country-region w:st="on">India</st1:country-region></st1:place> there is no restriction for non Hindus. Also the big example for this is the <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceType w:st="on">Temple</st1:PlaceType> of <st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Shri Dharma Shashta</st1:PlaceName></st1:place> at Shabarimala at Kerala.

Fasting is recommended every where. I use to fast one time in navaratries and at night I used to eat some fruits.

In day time takes only juises tea and water. But the experience is great.

But remember fasting is never meant that you don’t eat food. You should make you mind calm and devote time for worship and don’t be angry to anybody.

Believe me you will start getting the benefits.

Hindu is not a religion. It is a way life that followed by the people who lived in the <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceType w:st="on">valley</st1:PlaceType> of <st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Indus</st1:PlaceName></st1:place> ie Sindhu river. Sikh budha and jains are branches of these people and they can be considered as hindus. No need to go deep into what Swami Vivekanda told. He explained the same with some examples to understand to common people.

In some of the temples non hindus are not allowed. And the same is noticed the action will be taken.

In all systems such things happens. In Judiciary too all crimes are not getting punished and some times people even don’t know about once crime. This is the weakness of systems.

This happened in a Hindu temple so everybody is questioning. What happened to their moral when ancient temples were destroyed in Russia Afghanistan etc.
