My answer!So many people ask me this question.I used to give an indirect answer.The idol of Sabarimala temple is made by MEN, the sanctorum is made by MEN,the 18 steps,the prasadam,the roads,in short the whole temple are all made by human beings.The pooja is performed by MEN,and also the management and security of the temple are in the hands of people.If all these can be made/controlled/guided and managed by MEN,what is the problem if the Makarajyothi is also made by MEN.
Can anyone think that the fire is lighted by God himself?Is there any book which says that the Makarajyothi is made by god?
Can we think that the god has no other work than lighting fire?
When we worship or follow any aachaara it should be rational,logical and scientific!Hence millions of people go to the temple and they need not bother whether the Makarajyothi is man made or God made.
We worship the Jyothi as divine,because for us the mother/father/teacher/nation/earth/sun/airetc. are all divine to Indians.So is the Makarajyothi also.
Last line spirituality and good rituals are part of psychology says modern psychologists!
