"To be born a Brahmin is a privilege and an honour". You wish it is a privilege. If you do not work your behind off you ain't nothing but a day dreamer that your caste will get you to the places. Honor? get out of here. What you do in your life matters your caste not withstanding. Do you think that you are honored just because you are born as a brahmin is a hog wash, just like some foreign dimplomat getting honoerd doctorate degree from some hotshot university. "The Brahmins are the highest caste of Arya Hindu society". Actually it is too mythical. Again you wish you are of the highest caste. All castes are highest regardless. If you think you can blow your own trumpet, go ahead. Highest in what sense? that you have some saying before other castes? What a whimp.
