The information in the above link will reveal so many Dalits were reverred saints in India.
After the destruction of Nalanda and Taxashila, and so many centres of learning by the marauding Islamists, all the learning and training became home based, or family based. So much so, that the trade secrets were never allowed to be known by other castes or even by the other family. But then the society functioned as well as an ecosystem of a tropical rain forest, where each caste supplemented every other caste but grew as a homogeneous society without inter-caste mixing.
The problem was further aggravated by the British when they were duty bound by the clergy and the church who were egging them on to convert the entire population to christianity as they did in the Americas and Australia and New Zealand where all the aboriginal tribes were either killed or converted. The British took over temple lands and the administration and the few hundreds which had a system of education similar to that of Nalanda and Tashashila.
They encouraged rogue elements in the Brahmins and other castes to perpetrate atrocities on the lower castes so the frustrated lower castes could get converted by giving them largesse and privileges

Thank you very much for sharing these questions and answers. These are in much more “straight, direct and piercing (infact directing)” form than book “Thank you India”. Namaste.

In reply to MW.

I wouldn’t call God of the Abrahamic kind biased. In fact scripture says he is impartial. Playing oneupmanship is a sign of insecurity. God is God and you can never be God which is why he is absolute not relative.

In reply to Krishanu Bhattacharjee.

Vedas are the original revelation, the concept of “one God” by the Abrahamics was taken from ‘Brahman’, but distorted into a biased entity who loves only those who follow one person. Abrahamics don’t have the absolute level, they have only the relative level. God as absolute truth cannot be separate from his creation. read ancient texts, Puranas, they are all in western universities and were made use of for cosmology. incredible insights of your ancestors.
