Subramanium: but the way the shirur mutt has been interpreted as if you have to belong to a known school or a known school within the larger canvas of the hindu faith which is either supported by the expression samprayada, is not very accurate. all temples in India are quite different and they vary totally- temples in the north India are completely different from the temples in east India, or South Inida. So, I am submitting that we will need a slightly broader-based understanding of the word denomination.

and if its broadly construed, it doens't offend anybody. it only guarantees equality to all religions. In other words in a religious denomination, that people who belong to the faith and who come together for the purpose of practising religion in the form of endowment, in the form of a trust, through erecting an edifice of learning praya, they would qualify for denomination.
