At Sri Gokarnatha temple in Mangalore, tradition is being updated in a welcome way. Usually, priests you see at a Hindu temple are all men. And widows are unable to take part in many ceremonies. But turning all that on its head, this temple has taken the step towards equality by training two women, whose husbands have died, to become priests.
