Walking out from Pooja.

In the old age, when a person was recognized by his work and not what his father did. There were people who were naturally aggressive and good at fighting, they became kshatriya, they use to protect others from any danger and hence earned respect, wage and their food.

Some were good in business and use to become Vaishyas. They were merchants and use to buy and sell different things and made profits from the trade to earn their place in society.

When one community was attacked by other, Kshatriyas protected everyone. Given their courage to lay down their lives to protect their land and people, they were often made kings.

Then their were those who cleaned others mess, the Shudhra. Shudhra's earning use to come from doing most of the dirty jobs in the society.

The last and important community was that of guide/teachers or advisors, the Bhramin. Bhramin's earn their livelihood by giving their advice on how to live or what to do. They tagged that since Shudhra's do the dirty jobs, they should not touch anyone else others will become dirty as well. Bhramin's layer out the rules and regulations of the society mostly as per their own comfort or interest. They became part of kings ministry as it was easy money. So as most people worked hard to live and earn, bhramin's got the easy way out.

Not much has changed in India even today, yes there is a segment of population which do not follow all that is told to them, but our society is still governed by these bhramin's. Though everyone work to own a place in society, bhramin's still enjoy the superior position.

Shouldn't we value more of our work, choices, thoughts and comfort than follow someone who had hardly experienced what we have gone through. Where does all the money donated in temples go? Why do we spend so much on Pooja which has no direct result. Cant we have a better use for it. Why can't we donate the same for education, medical and development.

Generation next has a lot to change, something which their elders didn't do.
