[Reader-list] Brouhaha Over the Veil

[Tapas Ray]

I would like to know what the likes of Ms Jogi have to say about the 
practice prevalent in Hindu society in the living memory of people in 
their sixties and seventies, of "asurjampasya" - "she who is not to be 
seen by the sun" (perhaps because the sun could impregnate them): Hindu 
women who were not allowed to appear before males not belonging to the 
immediate family, and if such appearance was unavoidable, were required 
to cover their faces COMPLETELY with a veil (saree's end) coming down to 
the chest.
