narrative of caste system to continue!
It’s high time we tackle this fake narrative Head On!!!

THERE WAS NO CASTE SYSTEM IN BHARAT!!!

Bharat had a fluid varna system where society was divided according to occupation & skills!
A false narrative of rigid birth based

caste system has been entrenched over centuries in the collective psyche of a nation 2 subdue it &serve the divisive agenda of a selfish few!

Time 2 dismantle this BIGGEST BULLSHIT ever created!

So here we go…..let’s peep into our history a bit 2 know the real truth

Maharishi Valmiki was a Shudra who became a learned Maharishi.

Satyavati was a Shudra fisherwoman who became the Kshatriya Queen of Hastinapur.

Maharishi Vishwamitra was a Kshatriya Raja who left everything & became a Maharishi.

Nahush became Shudra from Kshatriya.

Satkam Jabali became Brahmin from Shudra.

The very first historical dynasty to unite large part of India, the powerful Nanda dynasty was of Shudra origin

Chandragupta Maurya was handpicked by Chanakya from a family of lower origin (barber community).
He also married

Dhanananda’s daughter Durdhara who was a Shudra so the subsequent kings Bindusara and Ashoka too had Shudra origin.

The great poet Kaalidasa was a "Shudra" as he was a goatherd - but then he became a Brahmana because he chose to master literary arts of that era.

The founder kings of Vijayanagara, brothers Harihara & Bukkaraya belonged to the Kuruba (shepherd) community of Karnataka.

King Avanti Varman the founder of Utpal Dynasty of Kashmir was from “Chamar”caste.

There are innumerable such instances of rulers & Brahmins who

came from the so called schedule caste &schedule tribe of today.
Nobody then in that era gave a shit about their birth but respected the person based on his work!
Once a person became a king & thereby started protecting his subjects he automatically became a Kshatriya.

The caste was basically what he/she was entrusted or chose to do & not born into.

But we, today still go on & on about this fictitious birth based caste system which was actually thrust upon us by the erstwhile colonizing Europeans!
It was their society that placed

a great emphasis on purity of blood line (whatever that meant 🙄)…
It was their society that had rigid birth based class system.
They thrust this framework on us & created, believe it or not 2378 castes in their 1901 census!
They used this to divide & rule over us &

unfortunately 4 Bharat the subsequent politicians in newly independent India too continued with it 4 their own vote bank politics!
For far too long this caste system has also been used to berate Sanatan & it’s followers….to monkey balance Sanatan, a truly liberal &

scientific way of living which is in balance with cosmic laws of nature, with the rigid Abrahamic religions, their dogmatic views &their extreme conformities.
If we, the people of Bharat do not now dismantle this false narrative of caste in Sanatan once & for all then

This falsification of our history has affected our present & will continue to affect our future!

It’s a clarion call!!!

WAKE UP….. KNOW YOUR REAL GLORIOUS PAST AND GET UNITED LIKE NEVER BEFORE!!!

Cont… 13/n
Even after listening to people openly and brazenly calling for our eradication, can we, the Sanatanis of Bharat rise unitedly as one against all these forces and eradicate them from public life for good???

Now that’s a million dollar question on which rests our future!!! 🙏🏼

Today when I saw a heart wrenching clipping frm the channel “India Today” about Nadimarg massacre of Hindus, where even a 2 year old was not spared but shot in cold blood, &justice is still not given to dead…it set me thinking
were we always a “Bechara” community like this?

1/n
Were we only persecuted without any retaliation? Always running away?

A resounding NO!!!

Hinduism has always held the duty to fight for dharma at a very high pedestal!
Ramayan and Mahabharat are testimony to this! Our gods are always shown with weapons on them.

2/n
History too shows the immense valour of our ancestors!

The Islamic invasion of Bharat was resisted so spectacularly and bravely that at no given time the whole of Bharat could be conquered by Muslim invaders…nor did the majority of our population get converted!
