Part 11: Jati: a practical weapon to split society

Use of Mulnivasi Bhahujan Women to create ‘Jati’

It has become the common notion of people that Varna and Jati is one and the same thing. But this is wrong.  Varna and Jati are not the same thing. These are two different facts. First was the Varna system. After Varna system got disintegrated; Jati system developed. Creators of Varnas are Brahmins. Those who say that after Varnas got disintegrated Jatis got constituted; this natural thesis is not at all acceptable to me. Jatis were created by Brahmins.

Lots of people keep on repeating what Babasaheb Dr. Ambedkar said about jatis in 1916. But these people forget that what Babasaheb Dr. Ambedkar said in 1916 were his thoughts. Now time has changed. Followers of Babasaheb Dr. Ambedkar first of all must keep in mind that Babasaheb Dr. Ambedkar did not consider words as evidence, that’s why Babasaheb’s words are not evidence for us.

We have to prepare this much; otherwise if we go about considering ‘Babaasheb’s sentences as evidence’ then we could become believers of Babasaheb. Now recently DNA report is out, from that it is clear that Jatis were created by Brahmins and in order to create Jatis Brahmins used women as assets, this fact also got established from DNA research. India’s jatis are world’s greatest surprise. The specialty of these ‘jatis’ attracted foreign researchers and compelled them to think as to what is the secret of these jatis. In order to find out the secret and the root of jatis researchers carried on the DNA tests. After DNA tests they reached to the conclusion that Brahmins in order to create jatis used women as assets. In Marriage father performs daughter’s kanyadan, satipratha these facts are related to women. Special festivals were declared for women. Child marriages are also related to jati system.

Based on all these facts it is clear that Arya Brahmins in order to create jatis used women and the women that were used for this purpose are not Brahmins. This is so because Aryans came to India as invaders and invaders came with preparation for war. And those people who come prepared for war they do not get women with them. This is so because generally women are not considered as soldiers.

That’s why when Brahmins came to India they did not bring their women with them. When Aryans settled here permanently then in order to beget their progenies Aryans used women from here. Based on DNA research this fact is very clear that women in the homes of Brahmins and SC, ST, OBC jatis homes women share common mitochondrial DNA. This means women in the families of Brahmins and women in the families of SC, ST, OBC are mulnivasis from here.

In order to create jati system Arya Brahmins used these women because these women were mulnivasis from here. That’s why now for some time if we believe that what Babasaheb’s thesis about jati is something else, and now the question is whether in spite of conclusions from DNA research would Dr.Ambedkar got stuck with his 1916 thesis or he would have accepted today’s thesis in 2002? There is only one answer that would have come, would Babasaheb rejected findings that has come from scientific research? Babasaheb Dr.Ambedkar totally supported Science that’s why we have to go about admitting that Babasaheb accepts science and that’s why conclusions of DNA are agreeable to us, acceptable to us.
