I hope that continued reading of your blog will help me do this.<br /><br />Thanking you again,<br /><br />Anon<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14756769.post-54419606100746844472015-02-08T04:04:57.158+05:302015-02-08T04:04:57.158+05:30anon, thanks for the comment. didn't see it ea...anon, thanks for the comment. didn't see it earlier. it is my view that there can be no brahmin liberals. you can be only one of those. kuffirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12137701734913669203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14756769.post-23119901283041510632014-12-30T03:23:28.979+05:302014-12-30T03:23:28.979+05:30Dear Mr. Nalgondwar,

I have realized that it's one thing to condemn caste intellectually, but quite another thing to internalize the said condemnation<br /><br />I was wondering if you could make a post like the Buddha wrote 2500 years ago on the "ideal Brahmin." That is, maybe a list of things that liberal Brahmins do that end up being casteist anyway, that we should stop immediately. On the other note, are there Brahmins or savarnas in history-- like maybe Varavara Rao?-- that we can use as role models in the process of "de-casting" ourselves? of I understand if this is not possible, but thank you for your time!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
