Guest guest Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Haribol, Can someone please elaborate or point to some work by purvacharyas on the jati and castesystem. On what sastric basis do some claim caste and jati is birth right and others say it is only due to Gunas and not due to birth.( i want pramanas for both) Where it is said brahmna gayatri is to be given only for a brahmana by birth? I would like to know if any has the dharma sastras to refer to the details of these concepts as i beleive dharma sastras are the only text that deals with this topic in detail. please refer an article i found that has more details on the history behind http://www.epw.org.in/showArticles.php?root=2003&leaf=11&filename=6474&filetype=\ html Thanx Start your day with - make it your home page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
