I love this take. I feel very similarly when I visit Tirupati and see the masses of people lining up at 5am like they’re trying to buy the latest iPhone. Also for the big temples like BAPS in Robinsville it just feels like a commercial thing.

I also recognize the irony. I’ve volunteered at temples and some of the people treated us pretty poorly especially considering we were just unpaid high schoolers.
