Varanasi: The City Of Moksha (Salvation)-Photo Feature

Varanasi is one of the oldest living cities in world. A city which believes in living life to its fullest. It teaches us the art to associate with life in a fun-filled way. It’s a city which is sandwiched between traditional values and modern beliefs, wherein traditional vibes enjoy an upper hand over global ideas! It’s also a city where life enjoys a wide space even in most congested lanes. The city cries foul about encroachments yet congested lanes constitute the heart of city pulsating with cultural, spiritual, literary and colourful happenings. Needless to state its popularity has transcended national boundaries. It’s one of the cities which enjoy constant arrival of foreign tourists from distant lands. It’s strange to notice that dusty lanes do not disappoint such sophisticated and sensitive foreign visitors, who are really overwhelmed and impressed after interacting with so many unique shades of life at Lord Shiva’s abode! It’s hard to decipher why this city, also known as Kashi, enjoyes so much respect among foreign visitors, but for Indians the reason of its popularity within themselves is so evident: It’s a city which belongs to Lord Shiva known as Vishwanath- the one who rules over the entire universe. He is the one who promotes nothingness yet never allows the colourful life to lose its relevance as long as one finds meaning in it! That’s the reason why people wish to breath their last breath in this city even as the city never misses to offer enough food to every hungry person who happens to venture into this city. And that too everyday-thanks to Goddess Annapoorna who happens to be the giver of food and nourishment!

Allahabad: City Of True Beauty, Real Romance And Mysticism (Photo Feature Part 2)

Many find Allahabad a very tough place to live an honourable life. That’s because┬а even though it came to enjoy a wonderful divine legacy, it never┬а ensured┬а a desired vibrancy for average souls. It never created any scope for living a truly fun-filled life, being all the time involved in dry intellectual activities.┬а Lack of┬а proper encouragement on the part of city towards its vast pool of talented brains have now given way to brain drain sort of affair. Many great souls remained an unsung hero in this city. However, what’s amazing is that it keeps on producing great souls at a regular interval! In nutshell, it’s a city of true beauty, real romance and mysticism. The city teaches you how to remain true to life in a real way, making it very clear to any conscious soul that life is not a bed of roses and it is meant to discover new mysteries of nature. Naturally, average souls running after money, fame, beautiful girl, big house, big car and many other cosmetic affairs would always feel disappointed to be part of this city. Having said that, I hope this city learns to truly honour its exceptional souls and also learns to be bit more blissful! ┬а

 

That's one of the major Lord Hanuman Ji's  temple situated in the heart of the city.. Anyway, it's so ironic to see love birds engaged in romantic talks at this place  :P

Company Garden has the honour of having this wonderful  Government Public Library.  This majestic building built in Gothic style was designed by R. Roskell Bayne.  This building is of immense significance since here only Legislative Council for the North Western Province and Oudh held its first meeting on January 8, 1887.  Let's not forget it was capital city from of United Provinces from 1902 to 1920! Anyway, I am happy that in my college days and even now I am the most frequent visitor!

Nearly all newspapers have their offices in Civil Lines area. However, Northern India Patrika's  office holds a special place in my heart.  This is one of the oldest newspapers in India which started in year 1868. It was then named Amrita Bazar Patrika.  Today, all good news editors and journalists are by-products of this newspaper.  Today it's not that financially successful but editors like V.S. Datta have kept its standards high.  V.S Datta, seniormost jourmalist from Allahabad, is its editor since early 60s. And when my first article appeared in print in this newspaper he was the one responsible for its publication. I owe a lot to him for all my accomplishments to him as a writer/journalist. May Lord give him long life and good health!

The Bhagavad Gita: Gateway to ineffable peace and bliss

Lord Krishna: The Ultimate Goal

Lord Krishna: The Ultimate Goal

The messages of Krishna offer great solace to us in present times marred by confusion and disorder of worst types. I know it’s one of the easiest tasks to read the great words. It’s proper reflection and┬аsubsequent┬аaction plans that really matters in the long run. ┬аHowever, such shortcomings on part of human beings do not make these words lose relevance. Even a casual approach on our part while dealing with these pearls of wisdom proves to be a meaningful gesture.
┬а

A beginning is something that really matters. It’s better to be part of the journey than remain always trapped in a statue mode. In most cases, the beginning is often in the form of casual interactions with words spoken by enlightened souls. Have you noticed that when we are journeying we often read great messages posted on walls of railway stations? You are in great hurry but even then these words manage to catch your attention. From that very moment a reflection takes place birth inside your mind which if given conscious direction on part of us could lead to miraculous transformation.

So on this occasion when the world is celebrating the birth of Lord Krishna, let’s try to reconnect with Him for one more time via his messages. In lighter vein, Lord Krishna is┬аrepresentative of Absolute Self that’s above birth and death, and still we celebrate his birth with great fanfare.┬аBut is it that easy to keep the great charmer Krishna away from one’s life whose very name means the one who has power to attract us-the attractive one?
┬а

In the end, I wish to quote the words of Sri Aurobindo Ghosh to make us aware of the worth of messages spread in The Bhagavad Gita. According to Sri Aurobindo Ghosh one should always remember Krishna’s teaching because it ensures “perfection of action. It makes man great. It gives him the utter strength, the utter bliss which is the goal of life in the world.

2. Svagatam Krishna

This is a very beautiful bhajan addressed to the charming Krishna. There are many versions available on the net but this one is close to my heart. It’s been rendered in a soulful manner by the singer. As you listen the Bhajan, I request you to take note of the┬аextremely┬аbeautiful camera work involved in the making of the video. It lends an unique charm to the video.

5. ┬аRudrashtakam

Another very popular Indian Shiva stuti. One that I have always heard and sang since childhood. It’s been written by Saint Tulsidas.

Verses In Sanskrit With Translated Version:
1-Namaa miisha mishaana-nirvaana rupam

vibhum vyaapakam brahma-veda-svaroopam
nijam nirgunam nirvikalpam niriham
chidaakaasha maakaasha-vaasam bhaje ham

I bow to the Ruler of the Universe, whose very form is Liberation,
the omnipotent and all pervading Brahma, manifest as the Vedas.
I worship Shiva, shining in his own glory, without physical qualities,
Undifferentiated, desireless, all pervading sky of consciousness┬а
and wearing the sky itself as His garment.

niraakaara monkaara-moolam turiiyam
giraa gnaana gotiita miisham giriisham
karaalam mahaa-kaala-kaalam krpaalam
gunaagaara samsara paaram nato ham

I bow to the supreme Lord who is the formless source of тАЬOMтАЭ
The Self of All, transcending all conditions and states,
Beyond speech, understanding and sense perception,
Awe-full, but gracious, the ruler of Kailash,
Devourer of Death, the immortal abode of all virtues.

tushaa raadri-sankaasha-gauram gabhiram
manobhuta-koti prabha sri sariram
sphuran mauli-kallolini-charu-ganga┬а

lasad-bhaala-balendu kanthe bhujangaa

I worship Shankara, whose form is white as the Himalyan snow,
Radiant with the beauty of countless Cupids,┬а
Whose head sparkles with the Ganga
With crescent moon adorning his brow and snakes coiling his neck,

chalatkundalam bhru sunetram visalam
prasannaa-nanam nila-kantham dayaalam
mrgadhisa charmaambaram mundamaalam
priyam sankaram sarvanaatham bhajaami

The beloved Lord of All,
with shimmering pendants hanging from his ears,
Beautiful eyebrows and large eyes,
Full of Mercy with a cheerful countenance and a blue speck on his throat.

pracandam prakrstam pragalbham paresham
akhandam ajam bhaanukoti-prakaasam
trayah-shula-nirmulanam shula-paanim
bhaje ham bhavaani-patim bhaava-gamyam

I worship Shankara, Bhavani’s husband,
The fierce, exalted, luminous supreme Lord.
Indivisible, unborn and radiant with the glory of a million suns;
Who, holding a trident, tears out the root of the three-fold suffering,┬а
And who is reached only through Love.

kalaatitata-kalyaana-kalpanta-kaari
sadaa sajjanaa-nanda-daataa purarih
chidaananda-sandoha-mohaapahaari
prasida praslda prabho manmathaarih

You who are without parts, ever blessed,
The cause of universal destruction at the end of each round of creation,
A source of perpetual delight to the pure of heart,
Slayer of the demon, Tripura, consciousness and bliss personified,
Dispeller of delusion┬а
Have mercy on me, foe of Lust.

na yaavad umaanaatha-paadaaravindam
bhajantiha loke parevaa naraanam
na taavat-sukham shaanti-santaapa-naasham
praslda prabho sarva bhutaa-dhivaasam

Oh Lord of Uma, so long as you are not worshipped
There is no happiness, peace or freedom from suffering┬а
in this world or the next.
You who dwell in the hearts of all living beings,
and in whom all beings have their existence,
Have mercy on me, Lord.

na janaami yogam japam naiva pujam
nato ham sadaa sarvadaa sambhu tubhyam
jaraa janma-duhkhaugha taatapya maanam
prabho paahi apan-namaamisha shambho

I don’t know yoga, prayer or rituals,
But everywhere and at every moment, I bow to you, Shambhu!
Protect me my Lord, miserable and afflicted as I am┬а
with the sufferings of birth, old-age and death.

rudrastakam idam proktam viprena haratosaye
ye pathanti nara bhaktya tesam sambhuh prasidati

This eightfold hymn of praise was sung by the Brahman to please Shankara.
Shambhu will be pleased with whomever heartfully recites it.┬а

karpoora gauram karunaavataaram samsaara saaram bhujagendra haaram

He is white like camphor and the very incarnation of mercy and compassion,
The only good thing in this world, wearing a king cobra as a garland

sadaavasantam hridayaara vinde bhavam bhavaani sahitam namaami

It is always springtime in the lotus of His heart I bow down to Bhava (Shiva), as well as to Bhavani (Parvati) who accompanies Him

Shambho Sadaa Shiva!

In Defence Of A Brahmin: Brahmin By Birth Alone !

In Defence Of  A  Brahmin: Brahmin By Birth Alone !

The previous article тАЭWhy have the Brahmins become a miserable lot in India ?тАЭ gave rise to some pertinent concerns. ┬аOne of the main concern was that the previous article needed more analytical and serious approach. ┬аI wish to present the missing links to establish that although the Brahmins have lost their aura to a great extent, it’s still contemptuous to pass lowly remark on their potential. I didnтАЩt go in in-depth analysis in the previous article merely because my primary concern was to simply highlight the plight of the Brahmins.

However, as I now do so, I should make it absolutely clear at the beginning that there is no attempt to project the superiority of Brahmins over other caste. ItтАЩs not an attempt to substantiate the caste differences but only a humble attempt to make Brahmins realize that they have come far away from their original nature and yet itтАЩs not too late to restore it back. Or for that matter, letтАЩs make an attempt ,to gain the lost sheen which is in my eyes a simple task owing the ability of Brahmins to learn quickly.

True, the times have changed and itтАЩs indeed not possible to move backwards. However, nothing has prevented us to imbibe the essence of past. Before I move ahead,I need to present set of views that seems to take note of the special features that separate the Brahmin from the rest of the community. ItтАЩs a tough task to fulfill the criterion which makes Brahmin worthy of being hailed as Brahmin.

The way Brahmins have to undergo so many sanctions,so many rituals and other ceremonies are indicative of the fact that living a BrahminтАЩs life is a tough task.ItтАЩs only their bonhomie with so many rigorous practices and prohibitions which makes them attain a tag of superior class. ┬аWhile criticizing Varna Vyavastha which in some eyes is a mean to upheld the superiority of Brahmins, I must say that Vedic sages had imposed more restrictions on Brahmins than on any other class of people.If there were doтАЩs and donтАЩts for other classes,the Brahmins had lot more restrictions imposed on them by the sages.The progressive group of writers always talks about doтАЩs and donтАЩts made for Dalits ,females and etc.but they simply fail to take note of the set of rules ascribed to the Brahmins.

In Defence Of  A  Brahmin: Brahmin By Birth Alone !

Anyway, let me discuss the definition of Brahmins before I come to have a take on the whole issue in my own way. OneтАЩs that especially quoted by others to lambaste and ridicule Bramhins. OneтАЩs which are often quoted to prove that even when a person belongs to different тАЬvarnaтАЭ(caste or group) he/she can be treated on par with a Brahmin. I have to do that because many of us love to quote them, in out-of-context manner, without bothering to realize that there is no point in bringing on forefront the essence of тАЬBrahminhoodтАЭ when the world has become a changed place.

There are many who love to remind Brahmins about the loss of their Brahminhood on the basis of these very defintions of Brahmins. Well, I would love to know which class of people are in tune with their тАЬSvadharmaтАЭ (roles defined on par with oneтАЩs nature) with right set of orientations ? None. Are women in league with essence of womanhood ? No. Are other castes in league with their orientations? No. Virtually all the class of people have deviated away from their pre defined roles yet we find them being promoted and pushed ahead with favours and concessions.

However, the Brahmins are supposed to retain and exhibit their Brahminhood to elicit respect and promotion ? ┬аAm I at this point trying to make Brahmins worthy of admiration minus Brahminhood? No. The point is that though itтАЩs a great loss that most of the Brahmins have deviated away from the attributes that once made them special, itтАЩs still sheer hypocrisy to measure their worth against backdrop made up of such lofty definitions. ┬аItтАЩs another thing that most of them are in league with their potential lying in a dormant state within them. They are still reflecting the same essence but in a diminished way. ┬аAt this point I must say, there is no need for the Brahmins to give way to concessions and favours. Let them retain most of their intrinsic features whether or not that makes them object of admiration in eyes of people around. ThatтАЩs one of the chief purposes of this article.

I should begin with this verse :

тАЬjanmana jayate sudrah
samskarad bhaved dvijah
veda-pathad bhaved vipro
brahma janatiti brahmanahтАЭ

(By birth one is a sudra, by the purificatory process one becomes a dvija, by study of the Vedas one becomes a vipra, and one who knows Brahman is a brahmana.)

(One is brahmin because of oneтАЩs action not because of oneтАЩs ancestry or VedaтАЩs recital.)

тАЬYasya yallakshanam proktam punso varnaabhivyajyakam |
yadanyatraapi drshyet tat tenaiva vinirdeshet ||

(Srimadbhag 7/11/35)

тАЬWhatever be the signs, indication, distinguishing features, characteristics (lakshan) of a Brahmin, such as self-restraint and self-controlled (sham-dam) etc. if those qualities and characteristics naturally are in one from a different тАЬvarnaтАЭ, then inspite of being in a different тАЬvarnaтАЭ at birth, he must not be considered so.тАЭ

uttamanuttaman gacchan
hinam hinams ca varjayan

тАЬIf a brahmana disassociates himself from lower caste people and associates only with higher caste people, he attains greatness. If he does the opposite, he becomes a sudra.тАЭ (Manu 4.245)

тАЬbrahmanah ksatriya vaisah

(Padma Purana )

тАЬIn Kali-yuga, all four varnas are devoid of character and proper behavior and are addicted to sin. The brahmanas are devoid of Vedic knowledge and sacrifice. Giving up the five sacrifices mentioned in the Vedas and all brahminical behavior and consciousness, they engage in inferior activities.тАЭ
In Srimad Bhagvat Geeta Lord Krishna has stated that тАЬSerenity, self-discipline, austerity, honesty, purity, forgiveness, knowledge, wisdom, and faith in the almightyтАЭ are the traits of Brahmin (Chap.18,Sholka 42)

na yonir napi samskaro
na srutam na ca santatih
karanani dvijatvasya
vrttam eva tu karanam

тАЬNeither birth, purificatory ceremonies, nor learning, nor progeny are qualifications for brahminical status.Only brahminical conduct is the basis for brahminical status.тАЭ (MahabharataтАЪ Anusasana Parva 143.50)

In Defence Of  A  Brahmin: Brahmin By Birth Alone !

We are often reminded of the story of Ravana. Ravana was a grandson of risi Pulatsya. He was an expert on Vedas too. So, he was a Brahimin by birth under Manu definition as well as a Brahimin (educated) by qualification (veda-gyata). However,he paid a heavy price for his wrongdoings. Some also love to tell us that how others who were not Brahmins by birth got status of Brahmin by their karmas. ┬аThe example of Rishis like Vishvamitra, Maharaja Dhrsta, Satyakama and others are often presented to show that how actions or Karma could lead transformation.In fact,some very enthusiastic souls would quote from Purush Sukatam to suggest that all the castes are basically one and the same as they belonged to the same Paramatma. Some over enthusiastic souls would also never fail to quote that a devotee( bhagavata) is superior ,and hence, even if one is Brahmin one is Sudra if the said Brahmin is not a devotee.

One would find numerous such analogies,assumptions, references and so on and so forth whose principle motive is to suggest that one is Brahmin by action and not Brahmin by birth. Anyone can be Brahmin , whether one is born in a Brahmin yoni or not. That is what so many so-called lovers of Shastras (scriptures) wish to prove. ┬аIs it true that actions or Karma alone define Brahminhood and Brahmin by birth means nothing ? This is what I wish to explore and ascertain in my present lengthy piece. Is being Brahmin by birth means nothing ? Is there nothing special in being Brahmin if one is devoid of traits associated with Brahmins ? ArenтАЩt the Brahmins a special class even as in the eyes of Lord all is equal-something so strongly expressed in Purush Suktam and other scriptures ?

My point is that most of the present age commentators have downplayed the importance of тАЬBrahmin yoniтАЭmerely to serve their diabolical interests. The verses have been interpreted in whimsical manner to suit their own interests. ItтАЩs a well known fact that even a demon can quote verses to serve its interests.ItтАЩs motive which defines the utility of a given set of actions.This is ridiculous and dangerous as well that in our age it has become a fashion to misquote тАЬShastras тАЭ and come out with self-concocted theories in their name. No one is above Shastras. Let us understand this fact very well. Once you get this fact very well half the problem is solved. Now letтАЩs hear what Krishna says in Bhagvad Gita:

Yah sastra -vidhim utsrjya vartate kama-karatah

Na sa siddhim avapnoti na sukham na param gatim

Tasmacchastram pramanam te karyakaryavyavasthitau

Jnatva sastravidhan oktam karma kartum ihaтАЩrhasi
-Bhagavadgita, 16. 23 & 24.

(Who so forsakes the injunctions of the sastras and lives according to his own desires does not obtain liberation, finds no happiness. The Sastras determine your work, what is right and what is wrong. You must know the way shown by the sastras and pursue the work – vocation – according to them.)

We find that Krisna who loves to superimpose his persona/will in verses of Gita never suggests that do what as I say in matter pertaining to set of actions ascribed to four Varnas. ┬аHe says do what scriptures suggest you as far as set of rules are concerned for living a proper life. If thatтАЩs the case let me suggest that scriptures convincingly suggest that not only one is Brahmin by birth but also that Brahmins as a class are superior as they enjoy so many privileges. This may shock many,especially who make a shrill cry about a society devoid of castes in which all are equal. ┬аAs per their view тАЬcaste-lessтАЭ society alone ensures a egalitarian society. I must say that people while discussing this issue forget one thing that exceptions are not rules. They also forget that reading scriptures in a sweeping way and then proclaiming fallacious interpretations as truth is a very dangerous phenomenon as itтАЩs an attempt to hide the truth from the seekers. An attempt to confuse and distort the truth is certainly demoniacal.

In Defence Of  A  Brahmin: Brahmin By Birth Alone !

IsnтАЩt it reveals something that the way some people have so eagerly quoted that one via certain set of actions can become a Brahmin automatically proves that Brahmins as a class are superior in the hierarchy of Varna system ? Here lies the great paradox. Though the detractors are eager to quote the sholkas that suggest transformation of one class into a Brahmin class, itтАЩs really hilarious to note that they are not willing to treat them as superiors.Then what is the urgency to be hailed as a Brahmin? Stay in the class to one which you belong. The urgency is so great that one is willing to be a Brahmin even if one has not attained a Brahmin yoni.What does that suggest ? Anyway, let me in simple ways try to bring clarity in this very complicated issue.┬а┬аNow letтАЩs know what is varna system.

тАЭ Varna is a Sanskrit term derived from the root тАШvс╣ЫтАЩ meaning тАЬto encloseтАЭ or тАЬcolourтАЭ.The term, which also means letter, paint, cover, coat, class and caste, has been used in various contexts in the hindu scriptures. In historical Indic traditions the varna and caste systems are not the same system, although they are related. Varna and caste systems are beleived to have become related to mean the same thing, as caste, after the Vedic_period when the puranas and dharmashastras were written.In popular belief, the varna system, also known as varnashrama dharma, is based on principles laid out in the scriptures of the Vedic tradition, which categorize Hindus into four тАЬvarnasтАЭ or social classes and prescribe specific duties for each.тАЩ

Now we are living in times of тАЬVarna sankaraтАЭ (distortion of caste), which Arjuna has talked about in Bhagvad Gita.Many are of the opinion that a classless society should be the aim and this Varna System is an obstacle. The most strongest reason is that it promotes superiority of Brahmins. May be in our times the caste politics has generated such impression but our sages were not politicians. They didnтАЩt provide apparent privileges to Brahmins to create conflict. This varna system was not devised to proclaim oneтАЩs superiority over others but to ensure a balanced society by ensuring proper chanallization of oneтАЩs tendencies.

The тАЬGunasтАЭ (attributes) and тАЬKarmaтАЭ (action) became the deciding factor.The sages could easily see that this a best system to ensure a proper society instead of creating a so-called classless society. тАЬNone excels the sages in impartiality. They do not talk glibly like us of equality but they are truly egalitarian in outlook since they look upon all as one with Isvara.The conduct of the worldтАЩs affairs is such that it requires people following different vocations, doing different jobs and with different mental qualities in keeping with them. It is in conformity with these differences and dissimilarities that the sages assigned the samskaras also differently to different people. There is no question of high or low among them.тАЭ

Now what was the need to ensure that Brahmins enjoyed┬аprivileges? LetтАЩs not raise eyebrows over the word тАЬpriviligesтАЭ. LetтАЩs read it along with the word тАЬsanctionsтАЩ to avoid heart burn. The Brahmins are supposed to follow so many strictest rules. So whatтАЩs wrong if in the process they enjoy certain privileges ? Basically these тАЬ┬аprivilegesтАЭ enjoyed by them are for the тАЭ Atmic and cultural advancementтАЭ of the rest of us.ArenтАЩt in modern society most of the preachers of equality in which a bureaucrat is supposed to treat a commoner on equal footing have ensured for them all sorts of privileges ? So whatтАЩs the need to blame the sages that ascribed certain privileges to Brahmins ? They had some higher motives unlike the present people enjoying privileges for their own sake.тАЭ

In our religion there are many duties and rites that are common to all. But to carry out oneтАЩs special duties certain conveniences are needed: as a matter of fact what are called conveniences are actually not conveniences or privileges, and also they are necessary to carry out the duties of the caste concerned for the welfare of the society as the whole. It is important to accept this truth: the special dharma of any jati (caste) is meant not only for those who constitute that jati but for society as a whole.тАЭ No wonder,that Brahmins have been denied access to lucrative professions other than to pursue Vedic learning in an attempt to balance for the privileges enjoyed by them.Vedic learning in our times could mean dissemination of knowledge of the scriptures.

In Defence Of  A  Brahmin: Brahmin By Birth Alone !

Now progressive people who are raised to making hue and cry about this varna vyvastha saying that it promotes all sorts of complexities just forget that we as owner of oldest civilization loaded with this system have managed to overcome all the crisis. We have remained the part of universe while so many societies across the globe plunged into nothingness with their so-called liberal values. ┬аDoesn’t┬аthat compels us to bow our head in admiration for the vision and understanding owned by our Rishis? Today we are living a life hailed as тАЬitтАЩs my lifeтАЭ under the impulse of teachings shared by modern Gurus.Now see how тАЬitтАЩs my lifeтАЭ has given rise to unspeakable problems. Therefore, letтАЩs kill the illusion that sages created dharmashatras for their own benefit with a treacherous design to promote Brahminism.

Now letтАЩs solve the dilemma with the Brahmin by birth or Brahmin by action ?This has to be solved to prevent the flow of unholy set of actions.I have already presented many verses that talk about the Svadharma(duty) of the Brahmins. I have also presented verses that suggested that almost anyone can be Brahmin if he/she ensures certain set of actions ascribed to the Brahmana. In the same breadth,these people have also suggested with the help of verses that how a Brahmin loses Brahminhood due to lack of sincerity in following code of conduct assigned to them. In lighter vein, it looks like treat all as Brahmins or else we will strip Brahmins of their dignity by pointing out flaws in their system !

I will begin with simple logic why Brahmin yoni is required to be hailed as a real Brahmin.It looks fascinating that all can be a Brahmin.However, a close reading of the scriptures proves that this simply can never be the case. There are exceptions. Sorry ! Exceptions are not rules.I just fail to understand even if a Brahmin fails to observe certain set of actions how does it ensure that тАЬbirthтАЭ no longer remains an essential quality to be hailed as Brahmin ? Now is there any relation between both of them ? I donтАЩt think so. However,the overenthusiastic souls when they quote that Brahmins means following certain set of actions they often link it with futility of a Brahmin birth ? Now,how on earth this logic holds any merit ? However, the blockheads continue to see a relation.

Anyway, Gosvami Tuslidas says that тАЬto attain a human birthтАЭ one needs grace of Lord-bade bhag manus tan pava. When thatтАЩs the case how come Brahmin by birth be of little significance? Why are we seeing this only in light of observance of certain code of conduct ? In Saisatcharitra we find that while talking about the glory of human birth, it has been stated that to be born in refined Brahmin family is a greater blessing than a mere human birth. Actually,the problem is that the so-called interpretors of scriptures read scriptures with a closed mind,having certain biases towards the Brahmins. After all, they are special ! ThatтАЩs the only reason why they have come out with so many vague theories that have made Brahminhood slave to certain set of code of conduct. Though Brahmins have no problem with this drama as they themselves are highly conscious of their downfall , itтАЩs an altogether a different thing to promote false theories.

Now how important it is to be Brahimin by birth whether or not we are in league with code of conduct shall be explained in light of relevant examples. In fact, the Dharmashastras are unambiguous about the importance of Brahmin by birth.

yajna-siddhy-artham anaghan

brahmanan mukhatoтАЩsrjat
brahmanyam brahmanenaivam
utpanno brahmanah smrtah

тАЬFrom the mouth (of the Lord) sinless brahmanas were created for the purpose of performing sacrifices.The child born of a brahmanain the womb of a brahmana wife is known as a brahmana.тАЭ (Harita Smrti 1.12.15)

Now in Yakshna Prashna episode in Mahabharata the Yaksha talks about for special feature that defines a Brahmin:

1. Kula-ancestry

2. Vritta- good conduct

3. SvAdhyAya- proficiency in Vedic recitation

4. Shruta- learning

Yudhisthar gives preference to good conduct to determine the тАЬBrahminhoodтАЭbut the fact remains that тАЬKulaтАЭ has not been ignored which we often ignore when we suggest that just good conduct is essential to be a Brahmin. Had that been the case the other three options would not have emerged and simply good conduct would have prevailed. Here letтАЩs apply some common sense to grasp it. How come a human birth that is result of good previous past actions is so honourable but Brahimns who are hailed as тАЬBrahmin Devta тАЭ the yoni that determines their Brahminhood holds no meaning? What sort of logic is that ? This is height of irrationality. Take the example of Karna hailed as тАЬSootpootraтАЭ. ┬аHis example shows that there is no need to be surprised over varna determined by birth rather than by actions.In fact,the most ridiculous impression conveyed is that once a Brahmin is devoid of right conduct he immediately ceases to be Brahmin and turns into a Shudra. No he doesnтАЩt turns into a shudra.He still remains a Brahmin by birth. Not a qualified Brahmin but an ordinary Brahmin. The fall of Ravana is so much quoted to highlight importance of actions but one forgets that he is all the time hailed as Brahmin- a Mahapandit.His ancestry still holds importance.

Now coming to the king of ridiculous assertion: тАШFrom birth everyone is ShudraтАЩ.Why ? Any answers ? ThatтАЩs not correct.This shloka is a popular one but it serves little purpose other than creating confusion,other than laying stress on the fact that you have to be a тАЬDvijaтАЭ.тАЭDvijaтАЭ means one who has two births.One human and other spiritual. At higher level it means when a person attains realization. However, we are not concerned with this definition.

LetтАЩs deal with it at gross level after all we are determining the Brahimin and Shudra at a gross level being more concerned with the тАЬby birthтАЭ aspect.тАЭ Now how will yajnopaveetam would be conducted , which is a pre-requisite for becoming Dvija and taking education in the Vedas ? тАЬAshtame varshe braahmanam-upnayet, ekaadashe varshe-kshatriyam , dvaadashe varshe vaishyam тАЬ. It can be seen that no rule exists for Shudra to turn into a тАЬdvijaтАЭ via this ceremony which is necessary to turn into a тАЬdvijaтАЭ.Only the first three varnas in Hindu Dharma namely Brahmins, Kshatriyas and Vaishyas are included in Dvija. Swami Dayanand Saraswati has stated in Satyarth Prakash that the Shudras can read scriptures but they are not supposed to have тАЬUpanayanamтАЭ. Against,this backdrop isnтАЩt a great dilemma that if all are born тАЬShudraтАЭ it would automatically mean that none of them would have тАЬUpanayanamтАЭ and therefore the тАЬvedarambha sanskaarтАЭ or for that matter sending Brahmins to Acharya-kulam for the study of the Vedas would be then impossible. This sacred Sanskaara of тАЬUpanayanamтАЭ whereby one attains dvija-hood or second birth, where Gayatri is the mother and Guru the father would then be impossible.тАЭ

тАЬTatra yad brahm-janma- asya maunji-bandhan- chihnitam/

Tatraasya maataa saavitri pita tu-aacharya uchyate// Manu 2:170тА│

Now people who boast of varna based on тАЬattributes need to tell how are they going to determine which one of them is going to follow a certain route via the Upanayanam if тАЬby birthтАЭ aspect is zeroed.тАЭ If the above ages do not relate to the caste of the child from birth, then how precisely in the tender age of 8th, 11th and 12th years does one determine the varna of the child (according to attributes or propensity) in order to perform the Upanayanam at the correct age as stated in the scriptures? ┬аMoreover, at such a tender age how exactly do we ascertain (simply by attributes) which child is to undertake study to become a Brahmin, Kshatriya or Vaishya?тАЭ The people who are used to convey false impressions via the half baked understanding of the scriptures need to understand that their false understanding would lead to serious confusions. It would only lead to meandering.

Braahmanah kshatriyo vaishyas-tryo varnaa dvijaatayah/ Shankh 1:6

Braahmanah kshatriyo vaishyah tryo varnaah dvijaatayah/Anusha. 47:7

Braahman-kshatriya- vaishyas- tasmaad-ete dvijaah smrutaah/Yag. 1:2:17

(Scriptures suggesting who are the people on route to dvija)

Teshaam janma dviteeyam tu vigyeya maunji-bandhanam/ / Yag. 1:2:17

Maatur-agre adhijananam dviteeyam Maunji-bandhane/ Manu 2:169

Matur-yadagre jaayante-dviteeyam Maunji-bandhanaat/ Yag. Aach. 39

(These suggests that тАЬUpanayanamтАЭ is an essential aspect )

I must say that people who are used to making frivolous declarations must come out with authentic declarations in support of their claims. If thatтАЩs not possible there is no point in going against the тАЬVarna AshramaтАЭ as laid down in the scriptures. There is also no merit in talking about the dominance of тАЬgunaтАЭ over тАЬbirthтАЭ via erroneous assertions with the help misquotes.Once again need to restate that while talking of rules letтАЩs not rope in exceptions.If in some case two plus two is five I donтАЩt think that gives one right to quash two plus two is four. People who talk about burning the Vedas, people who talk about caste less society, people who talk about superiority of Karma and Guna over birth and people who consider Varna Vyavastha a system to impose the dominance of Brahmin class are in reality the Moodhatmas (block heads).They are the quacks in the field of spiritual knowledge.Remember people with shallow knowledge are dangerous as their only task is to sow seeds of confusion where none exists.

Now letтАЩs deal this тАЬbrahmin by birthтАЭ issue from a more higher angle.Beginning from an interesting perspective, Lord Krishna assures to Arjuna that тАЬyoga bhrastaтАЭ (seekers unable to complete the spiritual journey) should not worry as they are born again in high-ancestry to begin from where they left in previous janma (birth). My question is that if тАЬancestry тАЭ something that proves тАЬbirthтАЭ is essential how come in some eyes тАЬbirthтАЭ issue is insignificant. The most striking principle of Karma theory is that human birth is result of set of good actions. Obviously, only chosen fools would speculate that birth and high ancestry means nothing even as they come to believe that accumulation of good karmas and grace of Lord leads to birth both in manusya yoni(human birth) and mansya yoni in higher clan. ItтАЩs laughable that scholars who diminish the importance of тАЬbirthтАЭ forget to take note of Astrology that is totally dependent one тАЬbirthтАЭ aspect. ItтАЩs strange that in a mad rush to promote тАЬgunasтАЭ or тАЬset of actionsтАЭ they have rubbished the cardinal principles of Jyotish-one of the six auxiliary disciplines of Vedic religion.I mean if the very birth is of no significance how will this science have any value ?

In Defence Of  A  Brahmin: Brahmin By Birth Alone !

Now coming to the most important aspect which gives тАЬbirthтАЭdesired importance over тАЬactionsтАЩ I need to unfold the most important declaration in this regard.The words of Krishna in Bhagavad Gita,which are simply the manifestation of views of ancient sages in Shastras (scriptures). ┬аTwo slokas viz. (IV.13) and (XVIII.41) of Shrimad Bhagwat Gita support four castes by birth. Many interpretations have been given against it to upheld that though Krishna has determined the nature of tasks on par with natural tendencies (gunas), itтАЩs ultimately the set of actions that determine the caste. Since I am myself not that qualified enough to comment on it in an authoritative fashion and also I am not interested in putting forward my own interpretations, ┬аI would rely mainly on bona fide declarations of scriptures interpreted in light of words said by people belonging to authoritative and bona fide Hindu institutions related with the study of Vedantic scriptures like Sri Kanchi Kamakoti Peethama and others.

The problem is that when so called Gyani-Dhyanis ( so-called people of wisdom) make stupid interpretations they are merely promoting тАЬkarmantara-pravistaтАЭ(change in duties) which is even a greater offence than тАЬKarma bhrastaтАЭ (people who have forsaken varna orientations). That simply means they are doubting over the wisdom of saints. Now whatтАЩs the need for one тАЬvarna тАЭ to give way to duties of other varna only because тАЬsvabhavaтАЭ(tendencies) of one Varna has become тАЬsvabhavaтАЭ of another Varna or, for that matter,a Varna has attained rights through noble actions to be hailed as Brahmin class. People who love to quote Vishvamitra and other sages examples should first tell me that do the oneтАЩs wishing a virtual change in yoni leading to status of Brahmin have the aura and stature like Visvamitra ?If not ,then they better stop making bogus declarations. Remember one thing when you are born in a certain caste which includes the very birth then it is simply the manifestation of divine will.

I mean had one really deserved a Brahmin birth one would have attained it from the very beginning.If one has not attained it then it should mean wait until your time arrives in future births.It does not mean at all that be a Brahmin as you have done this or that set of noble actions in this very birth. That too by pointing out that Brahmins have not been performing their duties? I laugh at such childish arguments. Suppose I feel that a certain bureaucrat is not discharging the duties in sincere way then that does automatically gives me the right to replace him/her ?

Even if I am granted the rights to replace that bureaucrat will qualifications required to deserve that post shall also be amended just for my sake who has the will,desire and ability to hold that post ? No. ItтАЩs simply impossible.May be an exception is generated but I donтАЩt think a rule can be framed.But then have a look at people promoting Brahminhood without a Brahmin yoni ? I mean when you guys simply cannot bend an earthly rule that easily then who has given the rights to you people to make ridiculous assertions in matter of Varna system coined by enlightened sages. That тАЬBrahmin yoniтАЭ in itself is meaningless in absence of right karma (actions). тАЬThe word svabhava means oneтАЩs inherent nature. This inherent nature arises from samskaras or past impressions and karma or reactions from past actions and is the root cause of determining birth as a Brahmin.тАЭ (RamanujaтАЩs commentary).

Now letтАЩs have the two shlokas from Gita that talk about Varna Vyvastha.

c─Бtur-varс╣Зyaс╕┐ may─Б sс╣Ыс╣гс╣нaс╕┐ guс╣Зa-karma-vibh─Бga┼Ыaс╕е |
tasya kart─Бram api m─Бс╕┐ viddhy akart─Бram avyayam ||

тАЬThe four orders of society were created by Me [Krishna] classifying them according to the mode of Prakrti predominant in each and apportioning corresponding duties to them; though the author of this creation, know Me, the immortal Lord, to be a non-doer.тАЭ

(Chap.IV Shloka 13)

Brahmana -Kshatriya-visham sudranam ca parantapa,
karmani pravibhaktani svabhava-prabhavair gunaih.

(Chap.18,Shloka 41)

тАЬO Arjuna,the activities of Brahmanas, Kastriyas,Vaishyas, and Sudras are clearly divided according to the qualties born of their own nature.тАЭ

The popular belief is that since Lord Krishna has based caste on oneтАЩs guna ,the caste system by birth is of little significance. This is far away from truth. The question often asked is тАЬWhere does He say that Varna is determined by birth in a particular family of parents of the same varna?тАЭ Most of the so-called lovers of classless society in blunt way state that тАЭ Krsna Paramatman says in the Gita that the vocations are assigned to people according to differences in their nature, not according to their birth.тАЭ

This is once again to create a vulgar mis-impression.I wish to ask the detractors where does he suggest that тАЬby birthтАЭ holds no significance? Here the shloka plainly suggests that various castes have been asked to perform their duties as per the natural traits.Had he been utterly against the тАЬby birthтАЭ concept then there was no need for him to specify the castes. When people talk about these two verses they forget to present the big picture involved in it. Now letтАЩs remember the words of Krishna are to be understood in light of analytical understanding with the help of scriptural references. One fails to understand that how come one is talking about тАЬsvabhavaтАЭ without тАЬbirthтАЭ ? If actions or karma had been that important as suggested by the people who wish to switch over to duties ascribed to others by quoting Vishvamitra and others ,then there was no need for Krishna to specifically refer to four castes. He would have then simply stated look these are the types of actions and anyone who may comes closest to them should treat themselves to be of that caste.

However, we find thatтАЩs not the case.Here svabhava or Gunas (attributes) are specifically used against the four varnas.The people who say that Brahmins are at par with other class are also wrong. тАЬThe predominating attribute of the Brahmins or spiritual class is sattva guna the mode of goodness. It is the Vedic scriptures which defines what qualities are possessed by Brahmins and what are the duties proper to their status as well as what occupations they may engage in. This Vedic directive applies to the other orders in society as well.тАЬ.(Commentary by Sri Ramanuja) . This commentary establishes two thing. One that any aspect need to be understood in light of Vedic directives ,and secondly, Brahmins are representative of Sattava and thus greater among equals.

The another curious thing is that when people so easily talk about to be known on the тАЬbasis of actionsтАЭ or on the basis of traits that belongs to others they then forget that Krishna has also talked about тАЬsvadharmaтАЭ ( following oneтАЩs duty in league with natural tendencies).In other words, there is no need to be lured by the charm of attributes of others. May be in our times when there is state of тАЬVarna-sankara) this point may not be intercepted with true essence but then this is the ultimate truth. Remember,this was the dilemma before Arjuna who was talking like a philsopher when his basic duty was to fight like a warrior.

My request to over enthusiastic interpreters is that letтАЩs not corrupt the proper interpretations with selective references. I think the problem is that democratic values have made Indians devoid of etiquette. They think that they have got right to curse Brahmins or Vedic system the way they feel like. Since greater blockheads (the people in league with demoniacal tendencies ) have occupied the media and government sector,the partisan and flawed views have hit our consciousness. And as we all know that we the people have become the part of rat race,there is little time left for the people to discriminate between right and wrong other than to give way to false impressions generated by the secular religious preachers. Anyway, ┬аmy advice to conscious souls is that they should also remember the words of Krishna in Chap.16 wherein He suggests that who dares to follow his own stupid ways not on par with scriptures shall not attain proper end.

sreyan sva-dharmo vigunah
para-dharmat svanusthitat
sva-dharme nidhanam sreyah
para-dharmo bhayavahah

тАЬIt is far better to discharge oneтАЩs prescribed duties, even though they may be faultily, than anotherтАЩs duties. Destruction in the course of performing oneтАЩs own duty is better than engaging in anotherтАЩs duties, for to follow anotherтАЩs path is dangerous.тАЭ
(Chap.3;Shloka 35)

It would be interesting to know that why Krishna did not refer to birth in clear terms while ascribing gunas to each castes.In other words ,though He meant birth yet there is no strong emphasis. ┬аItтАЩs because He knew clearly that тАЬwhatever be the outward qualities of individuals, their inner quality is in keeping with their hereditary vocations.тАЭ It would be interesting to know that in his times тАЬthe various castes were divided according to birth: we learn this, without any room for doubt, from the Mahabharata, the Bhagavata and the Visnu Purana.тАЭ.

In Defence Of  A  Brahmin: Brahmin By Birth Alone !

It was commonplace to find an individualтАЩs vocation determined by birth in those times.In fact,if we take into view the opinion of present age scientists itтАЩs now proven beyond doubt that тАЭ heredity and environment play a crucial part in determining a manтАЩs character, abilities and attitudes.тАЭ In those time unlike the confused state of affairs in our times the professions practised according to birth came to be the same as that practised according to guna.In our times ,it might be that some variations have appeared but then who can deny that heredity and the environment in which we are placed still the determining factor. ItтАЩs not that strikingly visible that Gunas and birth are one and the same but in those times the relations was highly obvious.

The relation is in our times is also very much clear but then we are used to propaganda instead of having faith in words of sages and Lord. The guanas and karamas that determine us are the ones we receive via heredity even as we swing to a different mode. ThatтАЩs why Krishna suggests that there is a greater chance to succeed in professions that are at par with oneтАЩs natural traits.However,the point is that heredity is the essence of oneтАЩs persona irrespective of gunas one come to possess. I am not sure that how many of us who are so vocal about тАЬactions and gunas alone тАЭ are truly are having a job at par with Gunas they claim to possess.If we look closely at the problems that have hit the modern times one would know that most of the problems are result of people doing the work not at par with their inner traits. Only God knows what will happen if one who is supposed to be a teacher turns into a warrior ?

And thatтАЩs the reason why a highly respected saint from Kamakoti Peetham in unambiguous way states that тАЬSri Krsna establishes that an individual owes his caste to his birth.There should not be the slightest doubt about it.тАЭ So when Lord Krishna gives values to тАЬattributesтАЭ he is not trying to create a contradiction. He is surely confirming the тАЬby birthтАЭ phenomenon as thatтАЩs desirable.

The same thing has been confirmed by other great saint Swami Ramsukhdasji Maharajji.His interpretation when read together with the authentic interpretation by Sri Adi Shankara presents a different meaning to the GitaтАЩs shloka from Chap.IV. whose popular interpretation says that тАЬThe four fold varna was created by me based on guna and karma.тАЭ

Chaaturvaryam=chatvaar eva varnaaH chaaturvarnya

Maya= eeshvarena

sRShTam=utpaaditam (braahmanoтАЩsya mukhamaaseet-ityaadi shruteH)

guna-karma vibhaagashaH=sattva-rajas-tamaansi

(From the Geeta Bhashya by Sri Adi Shankara)

тАЬWhat Bhagavan Krishna ji says is that the fourfold varNa system as described in Shruti (Brahmana was the mouth of Purush etc.) is designed by me and a person takes birth according to the prevalence of the three guna (sattva-rajas-tamas) coupled with the effect of their karma (according to the actions of previous existences etc.). There is no inference here that a personтАЩs caste is determined by their actions and attributes in their current existence. Hindu Dharma upholds that the prAni attains a birth according to the fruits of their previous lives and that action done in that life will determine the outcome of any subsequent birth. This also applies to the verse from Gita (18.41) which actually means that all varnas are allocated duties according to the guNa (sattva-rajas-tama) that has determined their birth. There is no implication that these attributes develop through the current existence and in fact refer to the guNa which a person possesses at birth.тАЭ тАЭ Genetics has proven that we inherit various traits, idiosyncrasies and disorders from our parents, so would we now refute this also? OneтАЩs jati or natal kinship community (not varNa) is intrinsically linked to parentage.тАЭ

Before I conclude I must clear the air,especially to the secular and progressive minds, that itтАЩs not at all an attempt to project the supremacy of Brahmins.ItтАЩs also not an attempt to lessen the value of actions. After all, ┬аwhy would I ,a lover of Advaita philosophy, come to glorify the gross body. I had to get involved in the painful exercise yet highly enlightening experience of writing a long piece merely to quash the fallacious views that have gained importance. And yes ,as I say ,I am not at all interested in creating caste conflict by bringing the supremacy of Brahmins on the fore.

On the contrary, I am in league with the words of Sage Vyasa that тАЬSudrah sadhuhтАЭ (sudrah is at par with saint). Since a Sudrah is devoid of most of the restraints that has been imposed on other three castes,a sudra always has a great chance to have an inner perfection via his set of simple actions. ┬аA few word on the deterioration that has hit the Brahmins. ┬аIt would indeed be foolishness to suggest that Brahmins alone have fallen from the grace. Nearly all the classes have given way to corrupt practices as highlighted in one of the verses from Padma Puranas. ┬аMost of us are aware of the reasons that have caused the degradation of various castes. ┬аSo instead of using the downfall as a pretext to curse Brahmins,itтАЩs time to allow Brahmin Devatas to regain their lost glory.LetтАЩs not make the revival of Brahmins a difficult task by giving rise to so-called progressive theories aimed at transformation of society.

Why have the Brahmins become a miserable lot in modern India ?

Why have the Brahmins become a miserable lot in modern India ?

We have become used to making crass remarks in our times.One of the most common perception is that Brahmins are themselves responsible for their downfall.ItтАЩs their bonhomie with corrupt thought patterns that have eclipsed their glory.There is cycle of events. Since Dalits were oppressed at the hands of Brahmins in previous ages,itтАЩs now their turn to oppress the Brahmins. Ironically, reservations have nearly created such a scenario in which Brahmins have become a marginalized class.

Interestingly, the rise of women is also being hailed as per cycle of events.The men tortured them in previous times.Now itтАЩs their turn to harass men.Here too female oriented laws and reservation for them are virtually tearing apart the man and woman intimate relationship.I would not deny that both in case of Dalits and women some injustice indeed had been done in past.However,let these problems do not give rise to solutions that become more dangerous than problems!

However,the same thing is happening in our society?The solutions in form of laws and reservation may or may not have improved the face of Dalits or women but they have indeed polarized the society to a dangerous extent.At present,the Indian society has become playhouse of strange set of values that have virtually toppled all good beliefs.Reservations have replaced meritocracy with mediocrity leading to great frustration among the talented souls.

A married woman threatens to implicate the husband in false case if the husband dares to prevent her from wrongdoings.In modern terminology thatтАЩs being hailed as тАЬawarenessтАЭ. However,my thinking mind,fails to treat that as awareness.Is it awareness that has given rise to so many complexities of all types? Is that awareness that makes a women file a false case ? Is that awareness which place mediocrity above meritocracy merely to honour reservation policies ? I feel that if awareness is creating so many problems for me then itтАЩs better that I should fast become most ignorant !

Why have the Brahmins become a miserable lot in modern India ?

One womenтАЩs rights female supporter once told me that rising number of divorce cases in courts is indicative of the fact that women have now become aware of their rights ! That means court cases are directly proportional to level of awareness ! Readers please donтАЩt blame me for such odd assumptions.I am only stating on basis of perceptions that have hit our society in recent times.No body should assume that I am against reforms.Or that I am against corrective measures. I am only stating that while framing new rules for new society just be extra conscious so that our better ways and means donтАЩt trap us in unspeakable problems.

One reason why our solutions have backfired is because we arrived at them via lies and falsehood sponsored by progressive literature and ,of course, because we treated theories created by Britishers as ultimate truth.One such theory is that Brahmins prevented other classes from having access to knowledge of Vedas.However,we find not only great woman scholars but we also find that characters like Kakbhusundi narrating tales of Rama to Garuda or for that matter Lord Shiva in form of a тАЬchandalaтАЭ(low person) giving discourse to Sri Shankara !

We never dared to question the findings of foreign scholars who talked about us in prejudiced way.They said men oppressed the women.We believed that with eyes wide shut.They told us that Brahmins suppressed and harassed the Dalits.We also believed that in toto.We never tried to question the exaggerated versions.As a result ,we are a society caught in worst type of contradictions.Anyway,I was talking about the downfall of Brahmins.I agree they have deviated away from highly virtuous lifestyle.

Why have the Brahmins become a miserable lot in modern India ?

I wish to know havenтАЩt we all deviated away from a life based on values?Why Brahmins alone are being ridiculed as hypocrites,as ponga pandits ?They may have fallen from grace but then is that fall solely because of their own character flaws ? I mean if Brahmins have deviated away from the life based on values then is that because they have willingly chosen to do so ? I donтАЩt think so.May be most of us have stopped treating them as representative of virtues ,especially in urban belt, but I can still say with conformity that they are still the fountainhead of wisdom.

They are still unparallel in their understanding and approach.They are still finest combination of wisdom and balance which is why they are hailed as Panditah(one who is owner of wisdom and equanimity ).No wonder why a dalit leader finds her social engineering incomplete without their pivotal role ! ItтАЩs another thing that very system in which they come to play an important role they are being subjected to humiliation of all sorts.I will not go into past to tell that they enjoyed a high position,to an extent that all our main incarnation of Gods washed their feet and had their blessings.тАЬI am convinced that everything has come down to us from the banks of the Ganges, тАУ astronomy, astrology, metempsychosis, etc.It is very important to note that some 2,500 years ago at the least Pythagoras went from Samos to the Ganges to learn geometry.But he would certainly not have undertaken such a strange journey had the reputation of the BrahminsтАЩ science not been long established in Europe.тАЭ (Voltaire)

Why have the Brahmins become a miserable lot in modern India ?

ItтАЩs really painful to see Brahmins stripped of their dignity in our present society.Even they themselves admit that since they have given to modern lifestyles itтАЩs hard for them to hail themselves as Brahmins ! Some openly tell that they drink beer and are involved in prohibited actions. However, having seen society from all possible angles,I must say they are still the best class of human beings on planet earth.

ThatтАЩs why I refuse to believe that Brahmins would have ever treated Dalits or women the way it has been depicted in foreign literature.In my eyes the real culprit are the patterns that we followed for past many centuries.

Why have the Brahmins become a miserable lot in modern India ?

CanтАЩt we see that how modern education has distanced away from our roots that most of the Gen-Next people are absolutely unaware of the finer traits of our legacy?How can we honour our roots if we are so cut-off from our past ? Same logic can be used to explain why Brahmins are so ashamed to acknowledge their true worth or, for that matter,why they have made themselves susceptible to humiliation ?They have just lost hold of the attributes that made them special.ItтАЩs still with them but they are unable to manifest it.Remember, a diamond even in guttered water shall remain priceless and precious.My point is that circumstances are to be blamed more than their own individual flaws which have led to downsizing of their aura.ItтАЩs time for the Brahmins to recognize their true worth.They should mend their manners and learn to keep themselves above the ironies of our times.

The essence of India is the essence of Brahmins.From birth till death the shlokas carved by them show us the way.If time has written for them a role mired in humiliation then they should accept that with grace.However,the ironies of our times should not be the excuse for them to move away from the divinity that exists in them. I hope their bond with divinity shall remain intact which is so necessary to keep universe no less than as reflection of the kingdom of devas(gods).
