Higher people can fall from grace too it would seem, though one could then say they're no longer that
Hey Nester
DONUT
CASTE MIXING IS NEVER GOOD
yes
the vedas made a mistake
THE POINT OF CASTE, @Kalvin , IS THAT WE CAN HAVE PEOPLE FALL OUT OF CASTE AS WELL
yes
SO SOMEONE WHO IS OF HIGHER CASTE BUT DEGENERATE CAN BE BUMPED DOWN TO DALIT
a brahmin is not born a brahmin
ON THE BASIS OF CHARACTER
I like the varna theory, but think it's too complicated
THIS IS THE NATURE OF "TWICE-BORN"
I believe in two varnas
he is born sudra status who gets to become a brahmin
THEY ARE BORN AND THEN REFINED
good people and bad people
@fallot IT WAS MADE COMPLICATED IN AN ATTEMPT TO ENFORCE IT
if he screws up and is not a brahmin by a certain age he stays a sudra for life
it sounds like Exilarch does too
Brahmin/dalit
WE NEED BOTH DIMENSIONS
those are the main ones I focus on because I do not know any kshatriya
KSHATRIYA ARE IMPORTANT BECAUSE THEY ARE HIGHLY CAPABLE BUT MAKE MISTAKES IN DIRECTION
and I am not really interested in their stuff
LIKE THE MIDDLE CLASS
Denies qualitative differences? Good and bad people seem to be pretty differentiated
qualitatively
The binary aspect of varna is twiceborn vs not
one is good, the other is bad
I WOULD ARGUE THAT YOU MOST LIKELY HAVE MET ONLY KSHATRIYA AND SUDRAS
NO BRAHMINS
by my view I have met almost only sudras
and dalits
I wish I could meet a kshatriya
it's all eggheads and merchants
and a few vaisyas
very few of them
everyone I meet is happily a work slave idiot
