[@librralbhakt]

I just have one question, Why did 'Parshuram' reject Karna? Isn't this discrimination? Purely birth based, if it was just "Varna" he would have accepted him as he was raised by brahmin, but Karna was Kshatriya by birth so he was rejected, discrimination is there in the myth by your god, and you want us to believe its just stratification? Very poor argument

[@Astitha]

​@@librralbhakt Sure. Do you also believe that Parashurama was an eternal person? and an avatar of Vishnu who existed at the same time as Krishna, a Yadav? do you also believe that Parashuram was killing all powerful landownding ruler class called Kshatriyas because they were absuing power? My point is if you are looking at meta or underlying narratives in the stories, why do you believe whatever is convenient to you? Karna humiliated during the swaymavar because he was NOT a kshtriya (because his birth was a secret) but in the story of parashuram, he suddenly became kshatriya ? Suyodhana made him king and all was good afterwards isnit it? It means, Suyodhana DIDN"T SAY to karna " hey man, you are born NOT a kshatriya, so you can't be a king". Krishna also karna after his death that he is "Satpurusha" - who upholds dharma. In the end, there are countless stories, several versions of each story across. This is NOT "standard" history book, where you can use to justify a narrative unless you are selective. Mata Amritanandamayi is a Fisher woman daugher. But brahmins, politicians and everybody fall on her feet. Why? India is extremely complex with several contradictory things in the past to form ONE official narrative. My position is if India has started industrialization much earlier or probably NOT colonized, the stratirification would have disappeard naturally as it did in Britian.

If you had read Mahabharata you would know that Karna belonged to Soot jaati which is not lower jaati by any standards. Soot means a progeny born to parents of different jaatis. In karna' s case his father was kshatriya and mother was Brahmin. How is he belonging to lower caste? Vyaas, Sanjay were also Soot. So before forming a malicious opinion go read the actual text. Karna was rejected by Parshuram because he decieved him. Infact karna was the student of Dronacharya. But karna wanted to learn Brahmastra to defeat Arjun, which he was not capable of, therefore he left Dronacharya and went to Parshuram. Kindly read the history.

Chaturvarna divides followers of Sanatana Dharma into four Varnas (classes). It is mentioned in the Rig Veda, the oldest of the four Vedas. It is important to recognise that Caste and Varna are different. Chaturvarna is mentioned in the Bhagwad Gita by Shri Krishna. It based on a person’s “gunas”. Gunas are attributes/qualifications. It is not hereditary. It is also important to distinguish between Hinduism and Sanatana Dharma. Both Hindus and Sanatanis draw their belief system from the scriptures. However Hinduism is a derivative of Sanatana Dharma that has been anglicised by the incorporation of a number of colonial terms, such as Caste, God, Lord, gods, goddesses etc. none of which are mentioned in the scriptures. The term Hinduism itself is an anglicised version, derived name for this religion. It is derived from Sapta Sindhu which referred to an area of the sub-continent. The Persians corrupted it to Hindu to refer to people East of the Hindukush mountains. Caste, which is accepted as hereditary by Hindus has been incorporated into Hinduism. However if a person considers themselves as Sanatanis, they have to reject Caste and embrace Varna, which is based on one’s occupation. Accordingly in Sanatana Dharma the Varnas are as follows: a Brahmin is a priest by occupation, who is knowledgeable of the Vedas, performs pujas and typically associated with a Mandir. A Kshatriya is a warrior. Vaishya is a self employed person, a business person, an entrepreneur. A Shudra is a person who works for someone else and gets paid. In short, Hindus embrace Caste, which is considered hereditary. Sanatanis embrace Varna which is based on occupation. It is hoped that this clarifies the issue of Caste and Varna. Jati is based on a person’s association with a community. It can be compared to Class. There are thousands of Jatis. Like Zamindars, fisherfolk, shepherd, toddy tappers etc. Typically marriages were within a community and son’s followed their father’s profession. It tends to be hereditary. For instance a person will be identified as so and so from such and such community. Bharat has implemented a reservation system that includes Jatis as Scheduled Castes. This includes reservation for Scheduled Caste (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST) and Other Backward Class (OBC). OBC is a collective term to classify castes that are educationally or socially backward.

Yes- Varna was a social matrix; Jati is karmic identity that comes because of your birth. One cant change the jati; but varna accommodated social mobility from Vedic times to medieval times. If anyone says it was rigid- then, that aspect of history is stained- like looking thru a tiny keyhole. Women were very much part of vocation; not restricted to farming. Weaving, pottert etc were family vocations where women played an important role in the preparatory stages of the vocation.

[@Inner.divinity]

Jati is identity of your Kula or family/ clan based on its traditional profession, Varna is determined by your individual merit, traits and profession

[@trshams575]

Differences are natural, real, essential. Architecture of society that makes harmonious, compatible is based on classification principle.

Sai Deepak is not that it immediately influences policy (an unrealistic hope, IMO), but that his work -- sufficiently publicised -- shifts the Overton window so that more people start pondering over the matters he has raised. I expect that his ideas will influence policy in about 20 years' time. (Recall Swami Vivekananda's dictum "No power on Earth can stop an idea whose time has come"). Until then, our responsibility is to ensure that he continues to get support he needs from both (other) intellectuals and/or (if required) the moneyed classes.

Means Varnas were classified according to Gunakarma i.e. according to Guna(qualities) and Karma(nature of their work), not according to birth but society made it by birth. This is against the Scripture. The divisions are there, Brahmans(intellectuals), Khatriyas(rulers), Vaisyas(producers and businessmen), Shudras(labour). Even today there are Labour Parties in USA, UK and Australia. In China, there is Dictatorship of the Proletariat(labour). So, those divisions had always been there but never it was by birth but according to the qualities and nature of work of the people. So, let us not commit the sin by making it by birth.

That's why you see caste in other religions in india. It's not the case for Muslims and Christians outside india. Main difference between class which you find in almost every feudal society and caste in India is 1. Caste was determined by birth with no social mobility 2.

He is normalizing hereditary professions ( makes sense by ancient standards ) and normalizes the discrimination based on power disparity ( makes sense ) separately. But how that disparity emerged ? If it is just based on profession , what are the job descriptions of a brahmin and that of a chandal that led to economic imbalance between these two groups ? And one last thing is that having a family profession as preference is one thing, but having a taboo on a chandal to take up a brahmin's job is another. Was that choice available ?

There's discrimination within the SC ST community, within the Xian community, within the Muslim community. They follow their caste hierarchy even after converting. Every invader felt he was superior. Feeling superior is a human asuric quality at work. However, cultural habits, eating habits and rituals are exclusive to many. Even muslims are picky abt halal, etc. Same way a particular community keeps sanctity of certain habits. And it is difficult to co exist with differing communities on a daily basis. It is more for practical reasons than anything else. In Singapore, they specially put advertisements for rent saying 'Indians don't apply' bcz they don't want their house to smell like masalas. But if a vegetarian in India says he wants to rent to a vegetarian, it is seen as casteist. We need to try not to look at everything with a western lens.

@@padmach3575 Unfortunately, if you want an answer from Sai Deepak, you might have to visit his lectures and ask him directly. But if you just want a sensible answer, I can give you that. Bear with me because this might be a bit long. If you want to have a rational discussion regarding this, I am open to that too. There are 4 varnas. Brahmanas were the priests whose job was to read, understand, practice and disseminate the information regarding Dharma. This was not just limited to Gurukuls but also to people who might get acquainted with the guru outside the gurukul. Hence, because they should not be misleading a huge number of people by misinterpreting the vedas, they were given extremely strict education on sanskrit, dharma, and how to interpret them. This is something people of other varnas namely kshatriyas (soldiers), vaishyas (merchants), and shudras (laborers) cannot afford to spend time on. Because their roles required the same amount of rigorous training but not in the vedas but in their professions. The duty of the brahmana is to guide the population with as much accuracy as possible regarding spiritual knowledge because others simply cannot have the time and energy to do so. Which is why they needed an entire varna dedicated to spreading this information. Varna mainly meant profession. Others can also independently do their own study of the vedas and achieve their own way of enlightenment. Take the famous rishi Vishwamitra. He was once a kshatriya king. Later on he became a brahmarishi. The famous Gayatri mantra was shared by rishi Vishwamitra to the world. So no one is stopping anyone from reading the vedas and benefiting from it's knowledge. But they need to meet qualifications in their expertise before they can be considered brahmanas. Just like a layman cannot become a successful astrophysicist just by reading books and tutorials. Most likely someone reading for themselves will face understanding issues and misinterpret the instructions. Hence, a guru is needed. A brahmana is that guru. Yes, there are people who can become a brahmana by studying the vedas by themselves. But they are a small minority. The majority of spiritual guidance needs to be done by an expert in that field. Who is the brahmana in this case. If you choose to study the vedas by yourself, you are free to do so. But when every individual can form different conclusions on the same vedas, what's to stop society from following down a false path? Hence why the role of a guru is important. Of course, even brahmanas are human beings and they can make mistakes. And the mistake one brahmana makes, is carried forward to the next generation and so on. So in the far future, dharma is bound to become adharma. This is why Krishna says that after each and every yuga, he will reincarnate in the world to punish those spreading evil and educate people on the true dharma, which is again from the same vedas. The vedas never changed. But humans do. Hence why they need periodic correction.

And most importantly he has done generalization of Indian History and mythology on basis of few examples.

Second he stated that even Brahmans or kshtriya couldn't get into profession of untouchables, well social mobility doesn't that way my friend.

In fact, why did Krishna turn away to face Kanakadasa who had pure motives despite being treated badly by the others? To show that caste is not an excuse to discriminate a devotee of God. Similarly, why was Ram born on Navami and Krishna on Ashtami? To disprove the myth of Ashtami and Navami flatly being inauspicious days without further context. All these bad things happen by corruption of human understanding of the Vedas. This is bound to happen since everyone has their biases and way of interpreting the same words. The Vedas never changed. But humans do. So they continuously need to be guided away from erroneous paths from time to time. This is why Krishna famously said "Parithraanaya Sadhunaam Vinashaaya Chadhuskrutaam, Dharmasamsthaapanarthaya Sambhavaami Yuge Yuge".

About land owning, I agree. I came from the Thiyya caste of Kerala but grew up in Malaysia. Thiyyas are supposed to be OBC or outcast. But when I first went to India at age 32 to get married. My mom brought me to her home and pointed to the surrounding mountains and said all the land below all those mountains belonged to her father. Later I found my dad's side were also very big land owners. Logically thinking will take you to the same conclusion, the Shudras made things for Romans all the way to SouthEast Asia so they should be the richest community. In N. Kerala there was an attempt by the British to confiscate wealth from the producers class (Shudras) and give it to the Ksythriyas and Brahmins which caused the Mopillah riots; though most people just assume the only reason for that was Muslim extremism. That latter justification may have added vigor to the clashes, that is all.

Half knowledge Sai deepak. He is saying shudras are not untouchables. Why people are taking him seriously?

[@kousiksinghamahapatrs1654]

Ambedkar has said shudras were not untouchables,they were important member of Aryan community,now say Ambedkar was fool

This caste system a European construct to homogenise all Indians and then convert....our old Varna/Jathi system served the panchayat community and joint family well. If it remains fluid and people moving from one to another without rigidity...Bharath can get back to her glorious past....must decolonise..

So Shreste is really not Shreste .

The Caste system is meaning less because all castes enjoy the same genetic profiling in the indo gangetic plain
