A brahminical order evolved over the centuries ensuring male superiority and control over land, women and Rituals have got challenged over the years.
Most brahmins in Agraharam have lost their lands, their women whom they controlled thru notions of caste purity are crossing the caste barrier , rituals they
practised to the exclusion of other castes have got questioned in temples .
Even in earlier times, Buddhism challenged the vedic-brahminical order to bring in a more just society devoid of caste discrimination.
The extreme practice of caste and brahminism was put in place by nambudhris in kerala where supported by kshatriyas, they maintained their control over 64
villages with their women being kept in absolute isolation and control and they themselves took kshatriya women [nairs etc] on the side.
The erosion of the brahminical order thru the dravidian movement has ushered in a free for all baiting of brahmins , isolating them for ill treatment and
marginilisation.
In north, where states [UP?]have a large brahmin presence, suddenly there is a surge for cultivation of brahmins by others. Even at the national level, right
wing hinduism is encouraging brahminism as they appear to be interchangeable words for them.
Where are we going?
What can the brahmins do?
Do they forget their caste tags and intermingle more with majority caste, run away from it all by going to foreign countries or places with huge brahmin
presence or decay where they are?
