Universal Scope of the Gospel

No caste or outsider barrier to the gospel. This doctrine invites a genuinely double-edged regional comparison: Puri’s Ananda Bazaar tradition of sharing Jagannath’s mahaprasad across caste lines is a real point of local convergence with ‘no distinction,’ but the Puri temple’s own historic exclusion of non-Hindus from its sanctum is a sharp point of contrast — Romans tears down a boundary that even this caste-crossing local practice still keeps standing.
