Loudspeakers

Don’t know how many of you will agree with me on this matter.

One thing that irritates me is the tendency of temple authorities to switch on the loudspeakers and play devotional songs in the evenings.

Saturdays are when I usually get a chance to visit the temples near my home. I prefer these temples as they are usually free from the crowds that throng the popular temples in the city.

Even though the temple might have just one or two devotees, they play loud devotional music. So even though one goes to the temple for peace of mind and to spend some time in reflection, the music only serves to disturb one's concentration.

Like I said at the beginning, maybe not everyone would agree, but this is one of my small peeves.
