                            Hello . I am a hindu who belongs to kuruba gowda community, I am really interested lingayat religion for its reformatory influence and it's Kannada literature . If I convert will I be equal with others or there is a difference I mean I know I will not be equal to priest but in general will I be a proper Lingayata or just new convert ??
