AMBEDKAR'S PHILOSOPHY OF HINDUISM AND CONTEMPORARY CRITIQUES PROF. M. M. NINAN X VARIOUS INTELLECTUALS A: http://www.anand.to/india/caste.html ........"The word caste is not Indian but comes from the Portugese word casta (breed or race). The Sanskrit word applied to the groupings is varna, which means several things but is often interpreted to signify colour. In a verse from the first millennium epic, the Mahabharata, Brigu, the sage explains: "The brahmins are fair, the kshatriyas are reddish, the vaishyas yellow and the sudras are black." According to available evidence, the majority of the people seems to be radically very mixed, and to quote the Mahabharata again, "If different colours indicate different castes, then all castes are mixed castes." The Hindus also believe that a man's varna is determined by his profession and deeds and not by his birth. Besides, the ancients were not racists. The truth of the matter probably lies in the fact that varna, like a lot of Sanskrit words, changes its meaning according to the context it is used in and can denote form, quality, class, category, race, merit or virtue......." +++++++++++++++++ B: http://www.hinduwisdom.info/Caste_System.htm The Caste System or varna-ashrama has been one of the most misrepresented, misinformed, misunderstood, misused and the most maligned aspects of Hinduism. If one wants to understand the truth, the original purpose behind the caste system, one must go to antiquity to study the evolution of the caste system. Caste System, which is said to be the mainstay of the Hindu social order, has no sanction in the Vedas. The ancient culture of India was based upon a system of social diversification according to SPIRITUAL development, not by birth, but by his karma. This system became hereditary and over the course of many centuries degenerated as a result of exploitation by some priests, and other socio-economic elements of society. 184
