Social Rules, Caste and the Ashram

You must not get upset like this over these things. After all when one comes to an Asram to do Yoga, one leaves social rules, caste, ceremonial purity etc. behind one. Also one tries to practise সমতা [samatā] to all people and all things, because the Divine is everywhere. Why not take that attitude instead of the old one?
