Such was the state of things in India, in the sixth century before Christ. Religions in its true sense had been replaced by forms. Excellent social and moral rules were disfigured by the unhealthy distinctions of caste, by exclusive priviledges for Brahmins, by cruel laws for Sudras. Such exclusive caste priviledges did not help to improve the Brahmans themselves. As a community they became grasping and covetous ignorant and pretentious until Brahman Sutrakaras themselves had to censure the abuse in the strongest terms. For the Sudras, who had come Sunder the shelter of the Aryan religion, there was no religious instruction, no religious observance, no social respect. Despised and degraded in the community in which they lived, they sighed for a change and the invidious distinction became unbearable as they increased in number, pursued various useful industries, owned lands and villages and gained in influence and power. Thus society, was held in cast-iron moved which it had long out-grown; and the social, religious and legal literature of the day still proclaimed and upheld the cruel injustice against the Sudra, long after the Sudra had become civilized and industrious, and a worthy member of society. arthAta - "2500 varSa pahelAM AryAvartanI sthiti AvI hatI - dharmanI 2010_03
