    Intolerance Within India's Caste System

    The Indian caste system is harsh and oppressive, yet it has not always been that way, and policies have been implemented to end this intolerance. The caste system within India is a set of classes that is used to place people into occupational groups. It is a system followed by Hindus. The story of how it began states that the original five varnas were made from a primordial being, and each varna contains many castes and sub-castes, each of which has a specific job. The cast system of India had three stages; the early caste system, changes in the caste system, and today’s caste system. The solution to this intolerance will not be simple, but will hopefully help to one day allow India to escape the binding…

    Buddism on the Caste System in India

    Buddhism started nearly 2500 years ago in by the son of a wealthy and powerful man named Siddhartha Gautama. He saw the suffering and despair of others one day and taught that they should be equal and live in harmony. As stated in The Buddha Dharma Education Association, Siddhartha sacrificed all his good fortune he had possessed and tried to feel what his other Indians felt and tried to comfort them with a new teaching and faith (Pilgrimage, 1). Furthermore, he did this for his own understanding and for all people. According to the chapter from, the Life of Buddha by G.P. Malalasekera, the Buddha once said, “By birth one is not an outcaste, by deeds alone one is an outcaste.”If you were living an uncomfortable life, in disenchanted poverty and could not survive independently, would you seek a new religion to find peace and equality? Buddhism was a major advantage for India because it made people equal in the caste system compared to Hinduism and Jainism.…
