best way i'v heard to describe countries like India, China or Russia is that they are a civilization dressed up as a country
That's spot on. I've never heard of Russia in that context, but India and China are civilization-states for sure.
@@PawanRao007 Russia is a federation made made of dozens nations, languages etc. Their administrative division is pretty confusing with different types of regions
Yes China and India but not Russia
I'm not sure about the significance of bathing ritual, but Bali And India have a special connection involving hinduism. Much of south-east asia was ruled by hindu kingdoms, and that's why in ancient times south-east asia was part of the indosphere (region of the world influenced by indian culture). In modern day, Bali remains as a living dharmic cultural centre.
Thank you for sharing.
The name bali is itself named after the ramayana, where Bali is the monkey king who is a very benevolent and strong ruler.
@@afkass4965That's just not true. It's just a coincidence.
@@PawanRao007 why would it be a coincidence? Does the word Bali have any other possible origins or significance in other languages? With such a rich Hindu heritage and culture, it only makes sense that bali was named after ramayana. Even though it has other meanings in sanskrit, ramayana was definitely a reason for that name
@@afkass4965 lol you contradicted yourself in your reply itself. I am not denying the Hindu influence on the area but its definitely not Because of vanar king Bali, there is no proof of that claim as well 🤣. Although it is widely believed that "Bali" is a deteriorated pronunciation of the word "Vali" that means waves in sanskrit. The name found on rock inscriptions was "valī-dvīpa" in Sanskrit वली-द्वीप = “island of waves”.
Bali also follows Hindu culture. Hindu kings ruled Indonesia before Islam thats why there is a lot of Hindu culture in Indonesia and Thailand, Cambodia pretty much most of south east Asia
India is like European Union without military border inbetween the states.
From what I have learned, a LOT of Indians find the caste system to be outdated and harmful. The change is slowly happening, but changing non-the-less
Change is great!
Yes indian caste system is harmful because it has grown outdated.
Yes so true am Brahmin and pure one too as In full Brahmin family too but I didn't know any casteism until I read it in history books so truth there not always in actual practice depends on who are and sometimes where you born as in sometimes in South cities it's still prevalent especially temples
Bali People follow the similar culture to india including the same gods too so yeah the spiritual cleansing thing is right🙌
Caste system is not what we know now. Caste(Varna) system was actually used to divide people in socio-economic groups according to their role in society like thievs and murderers are lower caste and scholars, prists are higher caste. Also it was a fluid system, not rigid system like if you born in certain caste, you must live your entire life with that. A thief or dacoit can move to upper caste by reforming, studying and practising religion. Later when British arrived, they saw a potentil in this system to exploit and divide people on the basis of caste.
sadly brother, its till very popular in backward areas...........like I have personally seen it as a brahmin and that is just terrifying.
@@kartikeyabhai8390f..k backwards area lower cast they get more facilities then us
@@kunalwadkar9336 na bruh, they legally get it but in reality they are opressed by the higher castes.....taking their lifes for land irrigation and shit...i can confirm that many of them work so as to repay loan that they took years ago.
@@kunalwadkar9336😂lol ! Get well soon brother.
@@PawanRao007 what get well soon I am open cast we get 75% in 10th still no good college take us but in lower cast like OBC etc they get 50% still they enter in good clg with less fees
Just for the knowledge the video was pretty old it showed india which was like before 2015, things like caste system is outdated except in marriage maybe nobody cares about your caste and if you even asks someone’s caste you are looked down upon. The infrastructure and unheard boom of startup ecosystem was completely missing here. But for the amount of knowledge he has tried to include in a single video is commendable even if a lot of information is outdated.
Even in marriage it's not given priority anymore in many parts of India thankfully but yeah sadly some parts still gives it importance
This CAST system was implemented on Hindus by the British.Hinduism does not have such a cast system where one is judged on the basis of birth. you never find this type of things in any Hindu scriptures.
Exactly
Cast system was there way before Britain came.
Way back to Gupta Empire, there r records about caste segregation.
@@spilltea4241 Read my comment again & again and understand what I had tried to say. You don't come to reply quickly like that know-it-all without reading or understanding anything.Hinduism talks about caste system but it is completely different. According to Hindu religion, everyone is sudra'' in this world just after his or her birth but according to 'karma' and 'guna' he can choose what he wants to be(Brahmin,Kshatriya or baisya).
But some creepy Brahmin for dominance in society and britishers for the division of Hindus, they implement this system
Ever read manu-smriti? I m pretty sure britishers didn't write it 😂😂
@@PawanRao007 when people's makes comments like this that means their brain is into their ass. In
Hinduism all scriptures are like Bhagwat Gita was Words of Sri Krishna, Vedas and Puranas we get from Adi Yogi. But Manusmriti is made up by some creepy Brahmins, just like there are "hadiz" in Islam which were written after Muhammad's death.
Varan and Jati which would roughly translate to lineage was turned into "caste" system, it was meant to categorize people on basis of skills not birth and it can be seen in other culture as well like Japan and even in Europe where surnames like Baker or Smith could tell you their ancestral occupation. When East India company arrived in India they praised the Indian education system and family values but after involvement of crown in the company you can see the shift in their writing, they start depicting India as very savage and backward place. Moreover, the being more white skinned comes from colonization.
There's a video of his explaining about INDIAN states too.❤
You guys are amazing! Respectful and honest
India is great my family
From Surat Gujarat n I myself don’t know my own country 😅
cast system is90℅ gone... Biggest example is our president. She belongs to the lowest caste.
Exactly… she might belong to the lowest caste as decided by the British census, but she does not belong to any low Varna or low jati as per Hinduism.
One has to to remember that the caste system as we know it today is not ancient or even Hindu in origin. India had entirely different and parallel systems,Varna and Jati,which looked nothing like the caste system of today.They were complex and many people did not belong to any Varna.’Caste’ is a British administrative hodgepodge term which evolved in the late 19th century as a Socio political tool to divide people and was cemented in public consciousness due to its inclusion in the census in 1902. In fact, most of the ‘Caste’ terminology popularly used today is not more than 125 years old . Also, most of the well-known visual aids like the caste pyramid are made up outside of India. They are incredibly damaging. The earlier systems were not entirely free of exploitation, but the implied baggage of the caste system is very different from what existed earlier….
1)the heavy racial connotation in the caste system is colonial in origin originating in the Aryan invasion theory .The old Indian systems of Varna and jati were not racial at all. They have their own history and learn how to really study it to understand it since it is no longer used.
2)Especially in the US ,caste is being sold as something parallel to racism or slavery or even worse than that. It’s unfortunate that the common American is being gaslighted, as such by the same people who indulged in slavery.The fact is that Indian had no system to racially discriminate between people till the British came into the country. It’s unfortunate that people in USA are being fed a false narrative.
The reason behind this is religion. India is the only country in the world which still has a native religion majority. And people hard at work to change that. So most of the narratives about India, but particularly about Hinduism in the English language, are either negative or downright mutilated. If one really wants to know about Hinduism, one has to bypass colonial European records, or opinions about it, and go back into the past. Unfortunately, this is true for many Indians, as well, as we have been educated in the British system for almost 8 generations. Today, the common Indian will not be able to tell the difference between ‘caste’ and Varna/Jati and what each one means.
The current gen doesn't give a f about caste lol. I didn't even know mine until i had to fill some forms in school. I have heard about preference of castes during marriage tho
In simple words "India is a country with population of Africa & Diversity of Europe"
Aur garibi
I'm from Northeast, India. Seven sisters from the far east. He doesn't know about us. Its alright. Let me throw a GK. Two horned rhino's are from Africa. And one horn Rhino is from Assam, Northeast, India. Do check it out.
I love my india❤❤❤ from bihar
In India u ll find -50°to +50° there are sahara like deserts,Amazon like forests,Siberia like places,beaches like Australia,and many more India is like the whole world in One place
Now India is 1st in population 😅
Not all Indian films have dances and happy ending. Also we make movies now which are top notch. Watch trailoer of the upcoming movie named JAWAN. Also....India is not a single country. It is like 28 countries packed in one. Hundreds of languages and hundreds of different cultures and cuisines and geography.
Indonesia and Bali were hindu countries at first but then Indonesia converted to islam because islam was prospering but Bali retained Hinduism. Even tho majority of Indonesians are muslims(largest in the world) they still follow and celebrate hindu customs as a part of their heritage
Most of the information in this video are outdated..
Caste system still exist today mostly in rural areas
In Gujarat there is a village of Afro Indians who came from Africa as slave to india 600 hundred years ago n today they r Indian n speak Gujarati the one in Gujarat r Muslim Afro black n in south they r Hindu n Christian it was all depend on who was the king of that area during that time that’s how they were converted 😊 but in the end we indian
It is celebrated in a cycle of approximately 12 years, to celebrate every revolution Brihaspati (Jupiter) completes, at four river-bank pilgrimage sites: Prayagraj (Ganges-Yamuna-Sarasvati rivers confluence), Haridwar (Ganges), Nashik (Godavari), and Ujjain (Shipra
Watch Andaman and Nicobar islands of india, it's history and also the natural beauty
Hey... You know when you read Indian History you can learn that the Britishers captured the whole of India not because of the power of the gUN BUT divided the whole community so they can rule easily. Britisher gave the name caste system and now they spread worldwide. An oppressed can understand what the colonial did to the whole community. now doing all the bad in the world they lecture us about difference. The cast system is not what you think. It is the Varna system, the Varna system in Hinduism divides the human into 4 states or classes. Every class represents the community in a socio-economic structure. Like the warrior class, educational or teacher class, or the service class (who work in different areas). like today's an economic division of 1st is agriculture, 2nd is manufacturing, and 3rd is service.
India has a great ancient history. example Like ayurveda and yoga are comes from the ancient time. If the cast system was always been in Hinduism so why is this precious gem not categorized or divided between the cast. You will not be able to understand this because this is new for you. and this is new for most Indians too.
Like Black is bad it is derived by white Britisher, and now everyone facing this racism not only African but also Indian face the color racism. This video tells you about there are different languages in INDIA even though their religion is Hindu. Then how these differences do not reflect in social norms. For example, an African or American or Britisher is hard to marry a Japanese or a Middle east community, or a Scottish or Italian, or French. because of the language barrier. So when an Indian tells you it is a diverse land you have to understand it has different countries inside. And besides all of these differences, they are hardcore Indians.
The caste system he explain is mot like that the actull system is
Lets consider a men named ( aarav )
Now in case aarav is fighting for its nation , his loved ones , righteousness and for people at that particular time he is considered as kashtriya
And now aarav is giving guidance to someone , teaching someone so that time he is considered as brahmin
Now aarav is doing something for its survival like doing some kind of job , business etc at that time he is considered as vaishya
And aarav is doing something in its home which has no connection with outside people like cooking food , cleaning house etc at that time aarav is shudra
And there is no mention in any text that is like brahmin is greater or kashtriya is greter a person is considered brahmin , kashtriya , vaishya , shudra at different point of time depend on what he is doing at that particular time
We from the Northeast eat different foods. And they only talk about Idli and Naan. So Northeast is missing here.
Namaste 🇮🇳🇮🇳🙏🙏
Try out South INDIAN Cuisine..
CALIFORNIA and NY has got more of the SOUTH INDIAN Cuisine..
Indo CHINESE Cuisine in THE US....
It's old video now India changed a lot,
I'm not sure if the spiritual cleansing and rituals in bali you researched have any correlation or not but they could be, as at one point (before colonialism and globalisation) in recorded history, Hinduism had spread as far West as Afghanistan and as far East as Japan. There's also a verse in Hinduism which you can look up yourselves, known as "Vasudev Kutumb", which in a very general sense means the people of the world are one big family. However some claim that it means that the people of the world are descendants of the Vasudevs, with Kutumb meaning family. Another interesting fact about India is that, India has a record of 10000 years of not invading or warring with any countries or regions outside of the ones it had already acquired, which spanned from Afghanistan in the West to Myanmar in East and from the Himalayas in North to Sri Lanka In South.
Note: There was no India, as in a unified front like a country back then, it was all divided, but rulers, lords etc in the region had an unspoken understanding so to speak, that they would neither attack anyone out of those boundaries first nor would they let anyone else from outside those boundaries get inside with intentions of war and invasion. Though that latter part was broken a couple of times as history is witness, there's always that bunch of idiots, who want to gain more power by allying with the enemies.
Caste system was brought to us by Portuguese. Not us, so please know this as well.
Bali is a Hindu dominated Island so yeah it's heavily influenced by Hindu spiritual practices.
This video is great, but it's outdated. Still fun to watch.
West Bengal or simplify Bengal, is East not North. Just FYI ! 😅
In India there is no caste system India was a Secular country before every civilization that's why you will get Black, white, brown people in India but after invasion India started to feel inferior that's why they forgot their own history and civilization
Where did you learn all this bullshit)?
I hate to say this. But I personally think Indian schools should. Acknowledge and teach about controversies. Like controversial colonialism, human trafficking, etc. I feel those past controversies are essential towards. Our ancestors did shady bad things.
Caste discrimination still prevails like murder,house destruction etc but but administration covers it with different reasons to stabilize violence.thats why it doesn't comes out.,.if you want to know cover recent violences around India ❤❤
