Nowadays caste doesn’t bare any relation to jobs.
Brahmins who are supposed to be the teachers and priests
are running shoe companies. Vaishyas are taking care of
temples and being the teachers. Kshetriyas are rarely
serving as soldiers of America, UK, Africa, Canada, etc.
Everyone is doing everyone else’s job now. So, the question
bares no connection to its original meaning and is used
only to give us a way of judging others and putting them
into a box of “superior” or “inferior.” Therefore it should
not be used. These prejudices are simply bringing disease
to our community.
A good rebuttal is simply to say, ‘I am Indian.” Or “I am
Hindu.” Or “I am Gujarati.” Or “I am a child of God.”
Or, if you really want to answer the question in its true
meaning, then you can say, “I am a businessman.” Or “I
am a teacher.” Or “I am a doctor.”
6. At the government levels, also, we have not been
able to do away with the class differences like
‘Savarnas and Scheduled/Backward Classes’. They
have continued to offer protection under the
‘system of reservations’ in the areas of education
and employment. What is your opinion on this
subject?
7. Do you think a day will dawn when all Hindus
unitedly would say: ‘WE ARE ALL ONE AND
UNITED’? What should be done by social, political
and religious reformers in order to achieve this?
Yes. I am very positive and optimistic. I do think that the
day will come when we are all united. Bhagwan Ram built
bridges between men and men, animals and men, animals
and animals. He even built bridges to the demons! We
should take this example and the communities should start
building bridges between different castes and different
communities.
Our problem is our ego. That is the only thing inhibiting
our unity. Look at the “I”. Wherever it is, it always stands
capital, whether at the beginning of a sentence, the middle
of a sentence or the end of a sentence. “I” is always capital,
and “I” represents our ego. This capital “I” is a border, a
boundary, a wall between us. Our egos stand in the way
of our unity. Whether it is our personal egos, or egos about
the superiority of our particular caste or society. The key is
to bend our egos. We must bend the “I” and turn it from
vertical to horizontal. When the “I” becomes horizontal,
then it can serve as a bridge between people, families,
communities and nations.
The System of Reservation and the special protection and
The spiritual leaders can teach people to build bridges and
to unite. We have travelled across the globe, through USA,
services should remain but they should be based on need
Canada, the Caribbean, Europe, Russia, Africa, South East
not caste. They should be based on poverty levels and
Asia and the Pacific, spreading the message of Vasudhaiva
socio-economic status, not on caste. Anyone – of any caste
– living below a certain standard should be helped.
