The plight of Hindi is that in spite of more then 50% of the population either speak hindi or understand hindi ,there is little pride associated with it. why? For instance A Maharastra .a Karantaka , a Tamilnadu and its people took pride in speaking there language but making it sure slowly and gradully that there language should be used by everyone who resides in these parts ,But can you say same about Hindi certainly not . Take for instance the oath ceromony of minister is taking place in Delhi yes our capital but how many of the ministers took oath in Hindi ?And did there was even a tiny bubble in any part of the country ? No why ? In Tamilnadu or in Karnataka or in West Bangal they want every should talk in there languge or local language and Hindi is the local language of Delhi forget about it as RAj BHASA we hardly have pride left for anything Indian but what about the local aispiration of the people that they say in Tamilnadu or in Karnataka why these minister didn`t take oath i...

Second addition of IPL was successful very very successful at that but the closing ceremony was complete spoiler of sort .Why I am saying that ? It was a great opportunity for BBCI and managing committee of IPL to show Indian culture and Indian artist on International platform . Isn`t it a Indian tournament ? Indian DJ also could have done English songs yes given that it was held in South Africa some of the local artist should also have been used .But what Mr. Flamboyant Modi did was a complete dampener .His heart is not in right place I presume but we have to know it before when he shifted it to south Africa . Second thing worth mention is Otha ceremony of Ministers by president .Only two Minister took oath in Hindi Mr. Sharad pawar and Mr. Kamal Nath why? Lets assume that few of them are not fluent in Hindi but isn``t being cabinet Minister from at lest 5 years as most of them were they should have learn ed Hindi and what about other ministers who speaks Hindi well but still preferre...

In the Jatakas Brahmins are mentioned as traders, hunters and trappers. R P Masani quotes the case of a Kshatriya prince, Kusa, mentioned in one of the Jataka tales, who became an apprentice in turn to a potter, a basket maker, a florist and a cook. Conversely, from even the Vedic days there have been innumerable instances of men born in the lowest rank of caste-society taking to professions which in theory were the monopoly of the other castes. Even the Mauryas royal family came from among the Sudras.” Swami Chidanand Saraswatiji ( ? ) of the India Heritage Research Foundation defines: "The Caste system as you see it today is not was originally simply a division of labor based on personal, talents tendencies and abilities. It was never supposed to divide people. Rather, it was supposed to unite people so that everyone was simultaneously working to the best of his/her ability for the greater service of all. In the scriptures, when the system of dividing society into four groups wa...

Lord Krishna as saying, in response to the question— "How is Varna (social order) determined?" "Birth is not the cause, my friend; it is virtues which are the cause of auspiciousness. Even a chandala (lower caste) observing the vow is considered a Brahman by the gods." “The four fold division of castes’ “was created by me according to the apportionment of qualities and duties.” “Not birth, not sacrament, not learning, make one dvija (twice-born), but righteous conduct alone causes it.” “Be he a Sudra or a member of any other class, says the Lord in the same epic, “he that serves as a raft on a raftless current , or helps to ford the unfordable, deserves respect in everyway.” Sardar Kavalam Madhava Panikkar (1896-1963) Indian scholar, journalist, historian from Kerala, administrator, diplomat, Minister in Patiala Bikaner and Ambassador to China, Egypt and France. Author of several books, including Asia and Western Dominance, India Through the ages and India and the I...

We are Brahmin not on account of birth or the performance of rites, not by study or family, but on account of our behavior. (na yonir napisamskaro nasrutam na ca santatih karanani dvijatvasya vrttam eva tu karanam.) ( sarvoyam brahmano loke vrttenaca vidhiyate vrttisthitasu sudropi brahmanatva, mouaccjato – Anusasanaparva. Even if we are born Sudras. By good conduct we can raise ourselves to the highest status. (sudrayonau hi jatasya sadgunan upastisthatah vaisyatvam labhate brahmam ksatriyattvam tathaiva ca arjave vartamanasya brahmanyam abhijayate – Aranyaparva. ) Patanjali refers to Brahmin kings, and Manu to Sudra rulers. There were Brahmin soldiers in the time of Alexander, as there are today. Shankara held the view that members of all castes can read the sastras. Hindu acaryas denounced the spirit of caste separatism. Vajrasucikopanisad holds that many who were born of non-brahmin women had risen to the rank of Brahmin saints. Author Beatrice Pitney Lamb has pointed out: "Cl...

The caste system is based on the sound economic principle of division of labor which ensures efficiency of production. A person from his birth knew what profession he was to follow later on. So from the start, he devoted all his energy to the one profession of his forefathers. It was because of this reason that in every period of Indian history, there was no dearth of highly-skilled workers and scholars. Megasthenes, Hieun Tsang, Alberuni, Ibn Batuta, Babar and even the early Britishers were impressed by the talents and artistic skill of the Indians in every art and craft." (source: Ancient India - By V. D. Mahajan p. 166).While Marxists and other anti-Hindu intellectuals calling themselves Secularists never miss an opportunity to denounce it, the fact of the matter is that the Indian civilization survived nearly a thousand year onslaught of Islam. Several other ancient civilizations – like those of Iran (Zorastrian), the Byzantine Empire (Christian) and Central Asia (Buddhist) br...

Varna (वर्ण varṇa) is a Sanskrit term derived from the root vrn meaning "to choose from".One of the foremost Rishi in Rigveda is Vishwamitra, who was a King and Kshatriya by birth. Vyasa was of mixed birth between Parasara, a Brahmin and Sathyavathi (a Soodra, fisher woman). Maharishi Matanga was from the Matanga Bhil tribe but was raised as a Brahmana. Hence to attribute inherited class system to Hindu scriptures is without substance
