RE:What about Brahmins?
by chaitanya kumar on Mar 30, 2007 02:42 PM

well, these days it's difficult to find people who do that job(pujas/homams). Eeverybody want to sit a posh office and dance in bars. That seems to be the fashion of the day. There is no pride in doing that job while Hindu customs are being laughed at and Brahmin is mocked for doing that job in many places and demonically caricatured in cultural expressions like media. But many Brahmins still stick to that profession because of traditional reasons until there are further replacements(like how tribals and others are being skilled to do that job in recent years to bring egalitarianism in Hindu traditions).
