Judges must not rule in favour of same-sex marriages: Hindu seer

Jaipur: A Hindu seer on Thursday called on people to reject the verdict if the Supreme Court decides in favour of same-sex marriages. He said that such a verdict be a "blot on humanity", IANS reported.

The court is currently hearing a bunch of pleas seeking recognition of the same.

"This is our matter. The court should not get involved in this. Judges should be told that nature will punish such people. If there is such a decision by the court, then there is no need to accept it," Nischalanand Saraswati, the 145th Shankaracharya of the Govardhana Peetham, Puri, told media persons at the 'Guru Deeksha' programme at the Gopeshwar Mahadev Temple here.

"The judges from whom the decision is about to come or will come should be asked whether 'you have married an impotent, being impotent? If you are a man, have you married a man? If you are a woman, have you married a woman?' It is a blot on humanity."

"This will encourage adultery. Marriage occupies the first place in the religious field. This is a matter of our domain, not the domain of the court. Homosexuality will lead to animalism, it is against nature," the seer said.
