Dr. Ambedkar says the cardinal principles of Brahminism are six: 1. Graded inequality between the different classes. 2. Complete disarmament of Shudras and the untouchables. 3. Complete prohibition of education of the Shudras and the untouchables. 4. Ban on the Shudras and the untouchables occupying places of power and authority. 5. Ban on the Shudras and the untouchables acquiring property. 6. Complete subjugation and suppression of women. .Inequality is therefore the official doctrine of BRAHIMANIS. (IBID-204) Devadhinarn jagat sarvam Mantradhinam ta devata Tam Mantram Brahmandhinam Brahmana nam devata Meaning: The Universe is under the power of Gods. The Gods are under the power of the mantras. The mantras are under the power of the Brahmins. Therefore the Brahmins are our Gods. Abbe J.A. Dubois.s, .Hindu Manners, Customs and Ceremonies., Oxford. Third Edition 1906, Page 139.
