I pity the author because he do not know what is the real meaning of brahmin and brahminism. The word brahmin comes from "Brahmam" which means the entire "brahmandam" or the universe. A person who is in union with the universe is called brahmin in vedas. Hence it is not a caste. Any person from East to West on the earth can be brahmin by becoming one with "Brahmam" or in simple form GOD. Better these so called social workers/writers go to some institutes like Vivekananda Kendra or Read Vedas in Veda Patashalas or visit nearest %u201CBrahmakumaris%u201D centre before giving definitions on brahmins. As regards Periyar he is the worst creature on earth. He lived lavishly at others cost and in the name of social reformation, enjoyed sex, wine and woomen and harrassed whoever opposed him and created division in Tamil Nadu. Tamil Nadu now stands last in most of the happenings. The is the legacy of periyar and dravidian partes
