Casteism, Reality and Ideology of the People.

 

Caste, Creed

Of course you must have listened about the words.

In India these words are as important as the dignity of the people. But for whom their dignity matters less, also these words are less important for them then starvation. Yes I'm talking of the weaker section of every society. In India at least, we can't deny of the vulnerability of the families, 'cause we have seen the little hands begging for a rupee and moreover we have felt ourselves as more vulnerable than them because we have been unable to help the little soul. We can't even give him/her that single rupee because of the severe reasons of this society.

India has always been an exuberant country for the world, because of its diversity of nature almost every type of fruit gets its presence their and hence every country or the people of the different habitations tried to dominate the place. I am not sure about the fact but it's came to listen that a certain section of the people attacked and dominated India, which believed in the presence of casteism and before that there was no caste. Actually caste is not a physical thing it doesn't exist actually but by the passage of time this term has made a permanent place in the minds of people that it seems real.

When that society came to India they divided people into four categories

1 Swarna

2 Kshatriya

3 Vaish

4 Shudra

first they divided the people according to their type of work, but slightly it became the part of their ideology and they started defining themselves on the basis of Birth. It could be the greed of the people that they wanted to have all these property rights and good things to them and their children only.

So according to them Swarna are the purest people and who are equal to the Gods, secondly Kshatriyas were the people who just fight for the nation and security of the people and no other caste will do their work. Thirdly Vaish are the people who only will do the commerce and trade and finally the Shudras are the people who will only serve to these three and will do nothing else. They were considered as untouchables. This system when slightly getting the place in the society of India, no one cared about it. But always there's a peak and when Upper caste people started oppressing the lower caste people, they recognized themselves as also as human beings. One human was ruling over the another one. They started agitating. Have you listened about Karna the Daanveera? the person may have agitated first and tried to do what he was interesting in, but when he got the recognition as a super fighter people gave him the Identity of Kshatriya and asked him the son of Sun, the Surya Putra. They personified the Sun  But the Sun is actually a fireball and can't have human as its sons. Whatever, there were many of the myths on the basis of which this Community was established. So here was the establishment of the caste system.

When you want to dominate a certain country you need not have the muscle power, actually what is needed is the understanding of the ideology and you just tune it a little and everyone will be there to serve you. When English people came to India they just wanted to have trade and commerce but when they saw the actuality and illiteracy of the people they thought the idea of domination and finally dominated the whole country they were less in the number but they know how to drive the ideology of these people and hence they established their state. Their study was mostly based on scientific proofs that were also spread in India and and now again when people recognized their illiteracy and domination they strived and freed themselves after a long period. Also now we understand the reason behind our domination was this mythical ideology and mindset, which was needed to remove and then our leaders thoughts to recognize the people who were super oppressed by the earlier societies and they started making special provisions to upgrade these oppressed castes. The reservation policy is one of these upgrading policies. After the centuries of ill ideology and ill system now India has started developing the minds of their people certainly in every field. Still there are some political leaders and religious people who have keep this ideology of Caste Creed alive in the minds of people, just because of their personal reasons. But being an educated human, we all should behave like educated human. 

Being in the search of spirituality I can have only one logic on the basis of which we can eradicate this ill thinking and that is the realization of existence. when we meditate we always must have and Idea in our mind that we are the undivided part of this existence and what we think and act, is obviously going to affect the another part of this existence and hence we all are no different from one another. Going fundamentally deeper we are the part of this whole existence, which is energy, time and space obviously the physical things which can be seen are the perfect concentration of energy, and energy is nothing but the electron, protons and neutron having as smallest of the entity. Our science has not gone more deeper but definitely we need not more to understand the essence, hence the basis on which you discriminate yourself from that another person becomes irrelevant because you are the same as that person fundamentally. 

That was the understanding for today till next be happy, keep learning.
