We need culture: Last time when I was in India in a meditation center, I met one guy. He was studying engineering in one of the highly reputed Indian University and he was so called Dalit by caste. Dalits are considered backward people pretty much same as Kami, Damai, Sarki etc of our country. Thanks to leaders like Ambetkar, VP Singh, and Kashinath who provided dignity and privilege to these people! Unlike our Dalits they are not unprivileged anymore. I learned quite a bit from him about Bhim Rao Ambetkar. During our conversation he strongly opposed the political system in India and frankly spoke against the upper castes people. I put this question forward to him; "Who are more moral, upper castes or lower casts?" He looked at me and said; Upper casts He was well educated, talented wise guy. He said, lower castes people were more morally corrupted compare to upper caste people. Lower caste people were more indisciplined compare to the upper caste. Lower caste people were more uncivilized compare to the upper castes. I said to him that a good quality will always surpass the bad quality. A moral person will certainly be forerunner compare to the immoral person. A disciplined person will progress compare to the undisciplined one. A civilized person will certainly lag behind the uncivilized one. ..... This is unavoidable law of Nature and no one can change it. He was wise person. He said, he was not jealous of the upper caste people..I trusted him because he was very clean hearted person.... He added he knew that better would always be forerunner but he didn't like the way those so called upper caste people treats the so called lower caste ones. ...and he was right. Forerunners must have some special qualities over the ones who are lagging behind. The slow runners must have some weak points. However, if the forerunners mistreat the slow runners, it is forerunner's weak point. I find, like any other society our society is divided into two branches with this respect. Forerunners are so egoestic that they believe they are some other species and the back runners have strong hatred against forerunners. It is the time for slow runners to find their weak points and catch the fast runners. It is time for forerunners to find the cause of hatred from their fellow runners.... I will analyze these points.. in my future postings. Don't hate... hatred will make you tired and you will not be able to run..you will lag behind more and more and will never catch the forerunners..... Find out your own limitations .... run with extra energy and win the trophy.....
