Disadvantages Of The Caste System

Allison, I don’t agree with your statement that “I think it is interesting because, in America, we too have different classes of people, as well as in the world.”. As you are comparing Hinduisms caste system to American capitalism. In America, we have a lower, middle, and upper class. However, a person is not confined to any specific class in the United States. It is possible for someone from the lower class to be a part of the upper class through education or entrepreneurship. Whereas in the Hinduism caste system, the people are restricted to their class. A person that is born a Shudra could be a genius, but cannot become a doctor because of their class. The only exception of an individual leaving their caste system would be a woman.

As in China, another dominant developing classical civilization, India, (300 B.C.-A.D. 500) focused greatly on philosophy and religious progress. Implanted within Indian divine belief systems, social status dictated all. The caste system, provided order and stability in India. Based out of Hinduism, the caste system clearly determined social status between five different divisions. The top of the caste were Brahmins (priests), followed by the Kshatriyas (warriors), Vaisyas (merchants), underneath merchants were Shudras (peasants and laborers), and the lowest rank were Pariahs (untouchables). Hinduism and Buddhism, the two dominating religions in India share many of the same concepts, as well as some distinct differences. These two religions

be more expensive, more overcrowded, more militarized, and the most aggressive in the country’s history. It is fair to say the system is racist, but even if we took all people of color out of prison, leaving only the white majority, we would still be over-incarcerated. Our nation would still face awful police brutality, and we would still need to reform our corrupted criminal justice system.

The different belief systems allowed for rulers to maintain power in their empires. The systems would enforce their right to rule. For example, Alexander the Great affirmed the divinity of his rule to the Egyptians when an oracle confirmed that he was the son of Zeus Amon. As the Mauryan Empire reached its peak, when Buddhism was adopted as the official religion. It was essential to maintaining imperial unity. In addition, Ashoka declared himself to be a universal monarch. Inscriptions of decrees issued by Ashoka during his reign show the use of Buddhism as a sanction for rule.

Hinduism reinforces the caste system, which is a "division of society into social classes that are created by birth or occupation" and it is a "prevalent social system of Hinduism" (Molloy 90). Thus, class and race are both elements affected by the caste system. There are different castes, or social classes, and there are also subcastes. Despite the caste being permanent for one's life, it's not to say that those in lower castes cannot move up to a higher caste. This is where the concept of rebirth comes into Hinduism, which is the idea that an individual can make certain choices in their lives, good or bad, and this can affect what caste they will be reborn into.

Imagine a life without a family, a world without the loving support and nurturing from a Mother and Father. An existence without best friends and dear loved ones. The human soul longs for relationships with substance, continuity and a sense of belonging.

Children are grown in bottles located in hatcheries and every stage of growth is micromanaged by the government. The embryos are chemically manipulated to stimulate or to retard their physical and mental growth. One commonly used practice was oxygen depravation, "The lower the caste," said Mr. Foster, "the shorter the oxygen." The first organ affected was the brain. After that the skeleton.

Throughout our experience, we have encountered so many challenges when it comes to gender in the society. Gender is being used as a basis for stratifying people in the society. In this article, the racial caste system that used to exist in the United State is depicted. In that the black women were denied the access to justice because of their status. They were perceived to be people who do not have any right within the society and no one could believed them when they were raped by the white men because all the court judges were white men according to this article. The women were classified to be from poor background and they should remain at a low class in the society.

During the last centuries of the classical era, India and many other civilizations modified their culture while other lifestyles continued on with the way they had always been. During the periods from 300 – 600 C.E, Indian civilizations kept their political structure of the caste system and also their religion of Hinduism, but slowly departed away from long distance trade with other societies.

Seeds, Rubber Pipe, and Diamond. These are all ideas that are essential to our society running smoothly and they are all communicated using our understanding of symbolism. While these symbols are necessary to function in everyday life, authors and producers can also use symbols to enhance an audience's understanding of key themes and ideas, and Arthur Miller does just this in his play Death of a Salesman. Arthur Miller uses symbolism to make his audience think more deeply about the themes of success and failure in the play.

Adiga describes the passiveness of the poor as a Roosters Coop, chickens in “wire-mesh cages” at a market. He also writes that these roosters “see the organs of their brothers lying around them.They know they are next, yet they cannot rebel (147).” The isolation of the poor occurs because of their inherited obedience and indifference to their own welfare and their community’s. Indian society and culture conditioned people of a lower status to see themselves as hopeless and inadequate to their rich counterparts. This feeling of unworthiness frequents the minds of the lower caste and suppresses from ample amounts of opportunities. Disillusionment from various lifestyles and certain privileges engenders envy for affluent classes, which then turns into abhorrence.

Indian serfs have to prove loyalty to their masters and all of them are trapped under what Adiga refers to “The Rooster Coop”. This is the way of how Indian society is structured in which the well-off and the poor cannot amalgamate with each other. And this system ensures complete control for the upper classes, transforming the lives of the employees a prison. The master-servant relationship is established based on this philosophy which permits to maintain the endless servitude of the lower classes and providing wealth for a dominant

In this novel before birth fetuses are categorized in a caste system. The caste system is ranked from Epsilons (the lowest), Deltas, Gammas, Betas, and Alphas. The Gamma, Delta, and Epsilon fetuses undergo Bokanovsky's Process (Huxley 6). This process is human cloning when one fertilized human eggs goes through in vitro. This causes them to split into identical genetic copies of the original creating a happy average which is a final sum of 96 identical humans (Huxley 6). Embryos are bottles, travel on conveyor belts for 267 days, which is the manufactured gestation time period (Huxley
