The Fact about Brahmins
by Bangalorean on Apr 30, 2007 01:54 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

The MANU SMRITI (BIBLE OF HINDUISM) says:

A) A Brahmin is born to fulfill Dharma. Whatever exists in the world is the property
of the Brahmin. On account of the excellence of his origin, he is entitled to all.
The Brahmin eats but his own food, wears but his own clothes. All mortals
subsist through the benevolence of the Brahmin.
B) Ignorant or learned, A Brahmin is still a great deity. To Brahmin, THE THREE
WORLDS AND THE God.S OWE THEIR EXISTENCE.

Dr. Ambedkar says the cardinal principles of Brahminism are six:

1. Graded inequality between the different classes.
2. Complete disarmament of Shudras and the untouchables.
3. Complete prohibition of education of the Shudras and the untouchables.
4. Ban on the Shudras and the untouchables occupying places of power and
authority.
5. Ban on the Shudras and the untouchables acquiring property.
6. Complete subjugation and suppression of women.
.Inequality is therefore the official doctrine of BRAHIMANIS. (IBID-204)

Devadhinarn jagat sarvam
Mantradhinam ta devata
Tam Mantram Brahmandhinam
Brahmana nam devata

Meaning:
The Universe is under the power of Gods.
The Gods are under the power of the mantras.
The mantras are under the power of the Brahmins.
Therefore the Brahmins are our Gods.

Abbe J.A. Dubois.s, .Hindu Manners, Customs and Ceremonies., Oxford. Third Edition
1906, Page 139.

Also Manu-VI1, 137:
.Let the king after rising early in the morning worship Brahmans who are well
versed in the three-fold sacred sciences and learned in policy and accept their
advice..

Again Manu . XI, 85:
.Brahman is the root of sacred law. By his origin alone he is a deity EVEN FOR
THE GodS and his word is authoritative for men..

ARE THE BRAHMINS SONS OF INDIAN SOIL?

No! They are invaders like the British and the Moghuls who entered India via Khyber
Pass to plunder its riches.

How clever are they when compared to the so - called low caste Hindus? They are
cleverer than the Jews. Why? Because the Jews with all their brain and might have yet
not settled. But the Brahmins who came from Central Asia are dividing and ruling
India without anyone noticing them.

The British have left India. But the higher caste Brahmin is still following the British
policy of .divide and rule., creating barriers of caste and creed. They have carved a
niche for themselves in India. At whose cost? At the cost of the poor, half clothed
starving lower caste Hindus.

Where did you get the Manu script. If you are not well versed with what Brahminisation is the do not swing your tongue. If you hate any on then keep your self away from them. You do not have any right to judge who the Brahmin is? How ignorant are you to say that Brahmin origins from Central Asia. Do not become a psychic with your hatred-phylosophy.

o body told any body to get supressed... just think.... Alll these supressed ppl were happy to be supressed... Who told them to be a slave..Our country became a slave to British becos of our fellow Indians...similarly these became slaves becos of their fellow caste ppl... These stories told so that they can enjoy the benifits now....Without doing any anything they want seats in IIM and IIT based on their supression some 50 yrs back.. As u can see even now they re happy to be supressed, they very happy to be a OBC/SC/ST...afterall they re enjoying a benifits of being the same.


My overall pt, they re happy being a backward class/supressed class....Dont blame Brahmins for ur Laziness.. Go and do work, study well....and try a get a seat in IIT/IIM though merit... Dont blame Brahmins for ur failures in life..It is ur own life and u have to decide where u shuld go.. no body can stop u..

u r saying brahmins came from central asia. mankind is said to have originated from africa. u first go back there and then ask others to follow. it is no use talking nonsence. no one really knows who came from where thousands of years ago.
let us forget casteism. now no one makes disctinction on basis of caste at least in urban areas. if there is no reservation on caste basis, everyone will forget caste. if at all reservation shaould be on economic conditions for all half clothed indians

Dear friend, you are just read and wrote a very long notes on it. In practicality, leave the caste Brahmins and take a look at dalits. there are a number of sub-castes in Dalits. You may be astonished, if you are a FC, that one sub-caste people will not allow the other sub-caste will not allow the other to fetch water from their community well. This is the rule they thoroughly follow as die-hards. You are saying that the other OBCs and FCs should treat the Dalits as equals. First of all, you please make them equal among themselves and ask other castes to follow the suit as the proverb says, Chairty begins from home.
