Thank you very much for your replies. However,
I would appreciate a further clarification of the
caste system. It still seems to be an unjust system
trying to suppress the weak. Why was it started?
Do the Vedas mention it or is it something that
the society started itself? Also by the Arya-Samaj
question I meant to say that it is better than
mainstream Hinduism since it does not believe in
the caste system as an average Hindu in India does
and it doesn't follow other evils such as Sati-pratha,
just things like that.
