Lomaharasha and his son Sootha Maharishi belonged to the so-called lower caste(in Manu terms) but they (by virtue of their knowledge) were acccepted as Chairpersons of assembly of rishis.(See Mahabharata). Thus, origibnally, it was "class"-Intellectual/Rulers/Traders/Labour. Then, Manu the fake made it "caste". Let us cast way caste.
