Guest guest Posted January 20, 2001 Report Share Posted January 20, 2001 Imagine that there is a plane emergency landing on the on the mountain top.Some immediately and automatically turn to holy scriptures and prayers for obtainining spiritual strength and to give spiritual strength to the group.These people have Brahminic tendency or inclination or swabhava to turn to scriptures and prayers etc...Some immediately take guns or other to protect the group from wild animals and thieves.These are Kshatriyas.Some arrange barter deals such as f milk to be give to hungry children for in exchange for clothes or similar items.These have commerce expertise or vysyaas.Some collect materials to pitch in tents or improvised shelters.These are experts in building with hands.These are called sudras(auspicious workers).Thus the Lord created natural expertise of four broad varnas.All are equal.All are important and vital for the welfare of the society.No one is superior and no one is inferior.These four varnas exist in creation for the good of humanity,whether we like them or not ,in all countries and at all times.. In India,the varnaas have degenerated into creating superiority and inferiority complexes among the people which is the root cause of the problem.Also due to lack of access to schoos as we know now,it was found convenient to let brahmin parents to teach scriptures etc to their children with presumption that all children of brahmin parents have their parents' swabhvaas,which was a mistake.Similarly other varnaas too.This created a caste system based upon birth rather than on natural talent and interest of the child resulting in misfits in the society of mediocre or poor quality brahmins,vaishyaas ,kshatriyaas and sudraas,who are responsible for such degeneration... Remember that neither Sri Krishna nor Lord Rama was born in brahmin caste,yet all the learned brahmins worship them from ages with all reverence and humility in addition to composing great scriptures based upon their leelas.
