Manusmriti, Ambedhkar's view on Hindu religion, British authors who interpreted vedic books.

 

Manusmriti was not perfect but Hindu religion has evolved over time. Some Islam nations follow Holy Book & by taking different views of the holy book. Dr. David Frawley said 'Manusmriti is not a Hindi scripture but one of many ancient law codes and their varied opinions. To look at Hinduism according to Manusmriti is equivalent to looking at Christianity today according to Christian law codes of the Middle Ages.' Moreover Indian constitution was never based on Manusmriti unlike the holy book of Islam which is even today used in certain islamic countries (Source: Sharia Law)

80% + of banned terrorist orgs are from this religion. So Hindu way of life may have discriminated in the past due to various reasons like divide & rule policy of the British and due to political parties such as INC, DMK, VCK in Tamilnadu but through social reforms is it not sorted? Tamilnadu has the highest reservation of 69% in the country. Then why some parties brag saying they are the beacons of social justice ? Will a Dalit or a hard working party worker become a leader of DMK? Dynasty politics continue.

Islam as a religion has the conversion part in the holy book because those days there were not enough people so they resort to conversions but now still this is used by various means like missionaries etc. Mass conversions happened during colonial days by creating superior & inferior classes using colour etc & by mis interpreting Hindu scriptures. Conversion in Hindu way of life was not required as anyone can practice their religion in India. As per the supreme court clarification in January 2022, people who lived on the side of Sindhu river are called Hindus. Hindu, Hinduism, Hindutuva terms shouldn't be used to create communal differences for any malicious reasons.

Periyar also preached corruption free governance but did it happen ? If yes why scientific corruption etc all happened. So if people want to misuse without proper understanding of scriptures you can’t blame the religion. Should we blame Islam is flawed because 80% + terrorist organisations are from this religion (Source: https://www.state.gov/foreign-terrorist-organizations/)? No right so in the same way you can’t blame or abuse gods of certain religions for your own political mileage. M.Karunanidhi asked 'Who is Ram, is he an engineer?' This created furore among the UPA alliance and he had to talk in Hindi on the stage to mend relationships with the alliance and the central government.

Social justice of 69% reservation achieved , what more can you achieve through more reservation ? Moreover 2+ generations have benefited from social reforms .. people should not be made lazy by divisive parties for their selfish motive to stay in power.

1. After ruling India for 200+ years (East India Company came in 1608, in 1858 power was transferred from EIC to the British Crown) the imperialists were not successful in their mission to convert people so they formulated a strategy to divide & conquer

2. Max Mueller, William Jones, Robert Caldwell, Herbert Hope Risley - they were instrumental in promoting division in society in various forms such as translating Hindus scriptures in English (lies, half truth, biased) which was purposely done to create division in society using the Varna system and promote Christianity.

3. Whilst we respect Dr. Ambedkhar as father of constitution but even his book on ‘ Who are Shudras’ are based on the translated books by imperialists. Of course Dr.Ambedhkar was great in law, politics but not a spiritual guru with ability to read, write Sanskrit ..Page 14(xiv) he talks about the deficiency in Sanskrit and makes references to books written by Max Mueller- that are interpreted with a purpose to create inferior/superior classes. eg. Virat Kohli is a great cricketer but that doesn’t mean he knows football well and can coach players. https://ia801603.us.archive.org/15/items/in.ernet.dli.2015.143076/2015.143076.Who-Were-The-Shudras.pdf

4. Varna system recommends 4 Varnas 1. Brahmin 2. Kshatriyas 3. Vaishyas 4. Shudras . This was manipulated in every possible way through these translated books and in practice.

5. By birth no one is born as a Brahmin, Shudra etc. It is by their qualities and skills. There is no varna called Dalits..it is completely untrue. eg. All IT employees are Shudras. In England we have surnames/family names such as Baker, Butcher, Smith which are all based on their professions, family business. Over the time in India it all got messed up by people, British who through promoting Endogamy (same religion marriage) to promote divisions in the society and to convert people to Christianity through missionaries by using the society made upper and lower caste

6. Because of Colonial policies to divide & conquer, promoting endogamy (marriage within same caste) & political parties with false theories, Caste system got strongly embedded in our culture. Cannot blame the religion if it is misunderstood or misused.

7. There is no direct link between various castes and varna system eg. Mudaliyars, Thevars, Chettiars, Pillai’s to classify them as upper and lower caste. There is no religious text that says classify a person from X, Y Z caste as upper or Lower caste. It is all man made division & by politicians for vote bank politics eg. more reservation.

8. Rational thinking, Women empowerment are some of the great principles of Dravidam. DNA is NOT different from North, East, West Indians…all are same proven in the recent years.
