brahmanjo brahmana. brahmin is not a caste as per veda. one who knows self is brahmin. none of our gods are brahmin by birth. example :ganapthi, rama , shiva,krishna, vishnu, brahma , none of veda vyasa (basically he is a fisherman). but later the scholars termed themselves are brahmin caste. this was just and occupation based varna system. brahmin had the opportunity to be with kings and rich and hence they are respected which inturn exploited others. beware hindus , if we are still like this we will be killed islamic fundamentalist as hindus lost afghan,pakisthan, bangla, now kashmir, tommorrow kerala, day after andhra.. so beware and get out of your prejudices and learn proper vedas

Its right.... but can we get rid off cast systm described in manusmirti...... can we allow shudras/Dalits to inter in temples and read and learn vedas as its abandoned for them to learn, read and even listen holy books and verses.
