I verified atleast the "hearing" part of the issue. I think yes in the
apasudradhikarana it is probably stated that Sudra cannot hear vedas.
I WOULD LIKE TO REQUEST THE MEMBERS TO ATLEAST TAKE THE CONVERSATION TO A
SUB-GROUP or OFF LINE IN THE INTEREST OF NOT PROVIDING THE REST - A COMPLETE
DIGESTED PICTURE
Yes there is a controversy and it appears deplorable. Since all Major
acharyas who have explained this issue sort of agree, there should be a
reason beyond our intellectual and emotional level for such a commentary and
smriti vakya.
I would feel that all of us should stop arguing about this on-line and look
at it in private sub-group
