@@ReldrikGeo Actually you were right caste system was introduced by then Britishers to divide and rule. Caste system is not even a Sanskrit words. The actual words were Varna Pratha. In Manu smriti Varna Pratha was not locked during birth but the Britishers translated the manusmriti according to their agenda just like the Aryan theory to divide north Indian with South Indian people. That's why you will not see caste system in Nepal or Mauritius which are Hindu majority country but those countries don't follow British rules Indian constitution have many British laws still now. It's hard remove those now but we are trying our best.
Some corrections: there is no mentions of caste system in any puranam or manusmriti. It was a mistranslation of varna system knowingly done by Britishers to divide and rule which till date caused a lot of distress in society( though not much in urban India). If you are interested in Mahabharat….best is to see the tv series on it…it’s really good, but then again if you want to read do read the translation of some actual Indian authors. Though it’s original author was Maharishi ved vyas who wrote the poem in Sanskrit.
Don't falsely accuse the british. Discriminatory caste system is mentioned not only in the Vedas but also ramayana and mahabharat. All these scriptures have promoted social exclusion, oppression and discrimination of a section of society
@@shyamjithsajith7897 I am not sure why? But what I can say is that, the poor fellow had a terrible childhood where he faced discrimination, though his education and everything was funded by a Kshatriya ( Maharaja Gaikwad) on recommendation of Dada Keluskar ( a Brahmin), he might have seen how the book was mistranslated by British to advocate hate towards something which never existed. So instead he targeted the book as it’s a easy way out rather than changing the minds of each individual. And why not any other book because manusmriti itself doesn’t have anything as caste system in it which can be seen in its first chapter where it mention varna which is derived from vrinja meaning choice. So their was no point in bringing forth any other book because it will make his whole point pointless.
@@shyamjithsajith7897 on top of it manusmriti was deliberately misused by the Brahmins in 15 - 16 th century to keep their wealth to themselves which also propagated Jainism and Buddhism in India. This also might be one of the reasons that I could logically think of. Obviously if there was some hidden agenda which I wouldn’t presume about a guy who was involved in making of the constitution .
@@shyamjithsajith7897because manusmriti is the only text which says that Brahmins are the most respectable and those without a varna are the least. This philosophy coupled with a rigid caste system enforced by the discriminatory state made for a highly divisive and problematic society. Ambedkar had said that it was impossible to remove the deeply entrenched caste system. Therefore it's better and more practical to erase the basis which asserts superiority of one caste over others. Philosophically, the actual Brahmin (as a varna, not as a caste) had a very difficult life. They couldn't engage in earning or comforts. They had to rely on donations and we're only supposed to spread education, awareness and spirituality, which was considered the highest form of service.
Please note that this video is outsiders understanding of what Hinduism is. Even 90% Hindus don't understand what is Hinduism, that includes me as well. There is no one video that can explain it simply, but one key thing to remember is Hinduism is not an -ism at all, it's a way of life. This video is a nice summary but please don't judge Hinduism by anything said in this video.
@@ReldrikGeo Even Manusmriti is misrepresented by the british who translated it in English. British made Gurukul Education system illegal and banned any social support and assistance. There were more than 50 subjects taught in Gurukuls. British introduced convent schools. One of the famous letter of Macaulay, he writes to his father: ′′ These convent schools will bring out children who look like Indians but are English by brain and they don't know anything about their country. They won't know anything about their culture, they won't have any idea about their traditions, they will not know their idioms, when such children are there in this country, even if the British go away, English will not leave this country.′
@@vishezar2137 True. People just read 2-3 misinterpreted Manusmriti verses and judge the book. Manusmriti translation by Arya samaj is the most accurate
@@ReldrikGeo Bro as a hindu what i can say is that it was the british that SOLIDIFIED caste system in india.Things started to show changes only in 1300's or something when islamic invasions happened.In south india it happened way later.The OPPRESSIVE caste system that we think came abt in the 1750's. Varna system was GOOD as it helped the rulers to classify ppl and do the needful for them.Brahmins then were considered most important since they were the only ones giving and spreading knowledge.That's the only reason to respect brahmins,other than that everyone was seen.People mix varna and caste system and call them same.THEY ARE NOT SAME.Just remember , god creates differences for betterment NOT for discrimination.

Honestly other than Hinduism and Buddhism all sacred text of other religions are more like paid advertisement They keep saying things like believe in this or you will go to hell, our god is the real one , your sins will be forgiven if you believe in our god. Ofc Buddhism started from Hinduism and you can actually learn to be a better person if yoy read hindu scriptures but i cant sya the same about abrahamic religions And I'm definitely stealing your comment 😂❤
Yes, points of contention due to his source of information being from the west: 1. The age of our civilisation 2. The Aryan Invasion and tribes in India 3. Origin of the word Hindu 4. The nature of the content in the Vedas 5. The meaning and application of Manusmruti 6. The caste system origins and the later manifestation of the system.
‘Caste’ system is a creation of the colonial administration and divide and rule policy of the British. Hindus followed the Varna and Jati ,an entirely different and complex system.
Nope.. even before colonialism, people were oppressed based on their caste. The only ones blaming the British are the entitled upper caste bastards trying to justify their ancestors.
22:41 Krishna never said such words in Geeta, it just that our texts were badly translated in English! If you're really interested in Hinduism i suggest you to watch more indian version of explanation!
@paperclips1306 guna karma vibhagcha means psycho-physical nature. It's not decided by birth but by our works. For example a guru who has known god is brahman, A soldier is kshatriya, a businessman or a worker is vaishya and a labour worker is shudra. Get it? It's not some caste thing, it's just thier nature and anyone can become anything by thier karma (deeds)
@@paperclips1306Bro they changed the context. There's a huge difference between Caste system and Varna system. That's why i said they poorly translated our text and changed their pretext!
@@kushagrakumar163Agreed! But unfortunately people so prevalently follow the Caste System implemented by British and then by the Politicians! Most Sad part is that u can't even argue over this with our fellow indians!
@@SandhyaEve-ii5im yeah man you're right but people are getting aware about these things. I was also not aware some yrs back but thanks to social media, I'm also getting slightly aware. I hope it happens with everyone out there. 😊
There is no such things written in manusmiriti that you can't change your caste the thing is when britishers translated the manusmriti "The laws of Manu" they changed that part in that to do divide an rule, the guy who translated the manusmriti revealed this after quiting this job.
Really but they are still teaching this in schools Our history was really fucked by congress wasn't it There are so many fake things that are added in our history in past 70 years
Just the title is so misleading no santan text talks about 'laws' of anything that needs to be followed, Hindu scriptures are directional they are meant to guide not to be believed as commandments
@@NovelTuberManusmriti is a Code or Law for the humans to follow given by Manu Maharaj who is believed to be the very first Man that took birth on this planet. It's like a rulebook to guide humans about how to live life to its fullest potential. It's separate from the sacred scriptures like Vedas, Upnishads, Puranas etc.
@@Antrikshyatree smriti means something that is to be remembered meanwhile Shruti means something that is to be heard, Shruti includes Vedas and Upanishads who are authorless , Smritis include Kapla sutras, Puranas, Mahabharata, Ramayan, Bhagavadgita and multiple smritis, smritis are derivatives from shruits and are composed by man, Manu smriti is one of them written by sage manu. But neither shruits or smritis are commandments, they are prescribements, you need to have proper knowledge
Indica was the name given by Alexander The Great's era's Greek traveler-scholar-philospher Megasthenes. So I wouldn't call it "Modern" by any stretch of the imagination.
23:19 true , although it wasnt covered in video. Not just British but spanish and french who created caste system as they didnt understand varna system but British used this to advantage and popularised it to divide and rule
Yeah. It was a surprise to me when I was first learning. I thought the caste system was an Indian thing. We don't really have it here in the US so any media around it is solely associated with India. But that's what my channels goal is, to learn and understand the true history and culture
yep thats legit persians gave hindu term for ppl living near sindhu river and in 440 BC a greek geographer named herodatus changed it to india so name india was coined by greeks but indians call it bharat since time immemorial .. even in G20 meet it was written bharat
About the CASTE system, It had become rigid but still lot of inter movement was happening as you can see through out history lot of so called lower caste become kings and so called upper caste were doing lower cast jobs. But when British came they were looking for cracks in the system and exploited them, They introduced word CASTE(which is not Indian but rather Portuguese) and through population census they grouped people in those caste system and even deemed them untouchables by birth, we have records to it. Later then they started giving preferential treatment to people in upper caste like government jobs or contracts because of that it made fissure in society. In order to solidify their claim they occupied academic space and mistranslated and purposely miss interpaled our texts. Those academic matter and books are which circulating through out the world and when our writers and scholars tried correcting that they were ignored because they still has control our academic publications. That's why we are still labeled as the casteist society. But I have hope that when to prosper we will rewrite our original history.
I will just cite one example. When Hun Tsang visited India somewhere around the 7th century AD, Varanasi was ruled by a Shudra King. He mentions it, in his book. So the caste system was not at all rigid during his time.
16:10 it’s Maha-Bharat where “Bharat” is India and “Maha” is prefix to imply humongous… it refers to the humongous size of armies that fought in the battle as the Bharat then used to span from Iran/Iraq to Mayanmar and Indonesia of today. There are some evidences that back these epics to have happened in real life but conclusive proof is yet to be found.
First 🥇 7:38 actually multiverse actually exist in sanatana dharma and its also mentioned in the scriptures 9:11 Hinduism teachings actually match with the current science like the age of universe, how the earth is round and it circles around sun and many of these information are written in hindu text which are the oldest ❤ ofc its not completely scientifically similar but its the closest out of all religions 19:57 just to be clear sati and parvti is the same person, when sati died she was reborn as Parvati so shiva only has one wife ❤❤

There are 4 varn according to scriptures which were always meant to be interchangable.. when British came and could not understand the system of Hinduism they gave caste according to Job.. they came up with 4000 caste while 2011 survey came with 4 lack caste some with even less than 100 people in them... There are just too many variables that were not understood... There is still debate going on if the varn vyavastha( system) had any merit... Now the politicle environment in India is such that people want their caste to recognised for reservations... It has become more of an identity politics than social problems
Just to be clear : Hinduism can never be explained in its true essence. Only people who have lived as Hindu can really understand it. People who study it often study it as a religion. But it's not just a religion. It's an amalgamation of various philosophies or schools of thought originated in the Indian Sub continent. The religion part of it is mostly influenced by a philosophy called 'Vedanta'. The word Hindu in it's true form include all the Dharmic/Indic religions - Hinduism, Budhism, Jainism, Sikhism. It also includes Atheists who wants to be identified as Hindu(which means being Hindu is by self identification) The best way I can think of to get the best idea of Hinduism is by going through the 2 Hindu epics 'Ramayana' and the 'Mahabharata'.
If you wanna read Mahabharat, make sure you read the BORI Critical Edition of it as the texts cant be mistranslated, manipulated and some can be based of local folk lore in other versions of the text.
As per Scriptural Analysis Hinduism is basically Henotheism. Henotheism Definition is as follows:- "Henotheism is the worship of a single, supreme god that does not deny the existence or possible existence of other deities" Religious Scriptural Evidence:- In Hinduism, there is one god but many deities. first, know the difference between god and deity Rigveda book 3, hym 54 Visvadeva , line 17 :- महत तद वः कवयश्चारु नाम यद ध देव भवथ विश्व इन्द्रे mahat tad vaḥ kavayaścāru nāma yad dha deva bhavatha viśva indre "This is, ye Wise, your great and glorious title, that all ye Deities and Demigods abide in Supreme." Rigveda 2.38.9 na yasya indra varuṇa na mitra vrata aryaman na minanti rudra na arāti tad idaṃ svasti hvā devamsavitṛ namaḥ Him whose high law not Varuna nor Indra, not Mitra, Aryaman, nor Rudra breaketh, Rigveda 4.26.2 I have bestowed the earth upon the Arya, and rain upon the man who brings oblation. I guided forth the loudly roaring waters, and the Gods moved according to my pleasure “Great indeed are the Devas (demigods) who have sprung out of Supreme God.” - (Atharva Veda) Why deities are worshiped and the result:- Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, verse 22:- स तया श्रद्धया युक्तस्तस्याराधनमीहते | लभते च तत: कामान्मयैव विहितान्हि तान् || 22|| sa tayā śhraddhayā yuktas tasyārādhanam īhate labhate cha tataḥ kāmān mayaiva vihitān hi tān Endowed with faith, the devotee worships a particular celestial god and obtains the objects of desire. But in reality, I alone arrange these benefits. Bagvad Gita, Chapter 7 verse 21 यो यो यां यां तनुं भक्त: श्रद्धयार्चितुमिच्छति | तस्य तस्याचलां श्रद्धां तामेव विदधाम्यहम् || 21|| yo yo yāṁ yāṁ tanuṁ bhaktaḥ śhraddhayārchitum ichchhati tasya tasyāchalāṁ śhraddhāṁ tām eva vidadhāmyaham Whatever celestial form a devotee seeks to worship with faith, I steady the faith of such a devotee in that form. Bhagavad Gita: Chapter 4, Verse 11 :- ये यथा मां प्रपद्यन्ते तांस्तथैव भजाम्यहम् | मम वर्त्मानुवर्तन्ते मनुष्या: पार्थ सर्वश: || 11|| ye yathā māṁ prapadyante tāns tathaiva bhajāmyaham mama vartmānuvartante manuṣhyāḥ pārtha sarvaśhaḥ "In whatever way people surrender unto me, I reciprocate with them accordingly. Everyone follows my path, knowingly or unknowingly, O son of Pritha." Hinduism God gives many options of worship u can worship him directly through a medium or via deities. It's up to each devotee which path he will choose this doesn't affect god he can hear both.

I have a suggestion every Hindu scriptures should be read in Sanskrit because no one can successfully translate Sanskrit into any language and the mantras produce specific vibrations in Sanskrit language ❤❤
@@ReldrikGeo Yes, it cant be translated correctly for every language, it has words which do no exist in other languages and many things which needs a guru to understand. It is the oldest and has the most words in the world compared to any language(Wiki will show less because they haven't decoded other words).
@@ReldrikGeono language can ever be translated perfectly but it especially stands for Sanskrit. Even with Hindi when I sometimes read Bhagavad Gita side by side translation in Hindi and English , the English translation feels so out of place, it looses the entire essence. Sanskrit is a very subjective language with very specific words meant to describe very specific thoughts or emotions, English in comparison is very objective and abstract, translation to English looses the orginal essence
@@ReldrikGeo words like Varna, dharma, Maya, aatman have no direct translation in English, translators just choose the closest best word for them, like caste, duty, but it's not the correct translation if u are trying to understand the meaning of the text. And some words like Karma have been so badly misued by the west because of it
Nice reaction. Please also do reactions on: A Brief History Of Vedas A Brief History Of 18 Puranas You might already know that these are some of the holy books in hinduism/sanatan dharma, but you will still really get surprised to see the depth in these books. The channel of my recommended video is serious source that you want, but I dont know why my comment gets deleted if I mention channels name (its not offensive word but still youtube deletes it)
The Bhagavad Gita is a chapter of Mahabharata. It's so important that it itself became more famous than the Mahabharata. It can be considered as a condensed form of the philosophical knowledge of the Vedas.
Well you are correct about the British part. The caste system had issues before British came but they exploited and worsened it to create divide in society. They wanted each and every crevice in society exploited to achieve their goal of divide and rule. They intensified Hindu-Muslim divide, caste systems to further divide the Hindus as it still was a major chunk, basically they wanted no major group to exist which would pose a challenge to them.
Correction : Shiva's consort Parvati and Sati are the same, (forms of shakti who is immortal like shiva). This is the only god I have seen who is like very harcore "one wife" god in any culture. Shiva and his wife shakti they both are like more transcendental being. Shakti used to take human births. And marry shiva and die. Then shiva stopped it and made her immortal..and this sati and parvati both are her incarnations.
4:25 yeay that's legit. Foreigners gave us names, but the name of our nation that WE called was "BHARAT". I think we should only call India by this name.
This should have been changed during independence like many other countries did during there independence, we should have renamed to BHARAT / HINDUSTHAN , but didn't and all of us Indians know why , doings of Nehru.
There is no declared sacred book in Hinduism. Though there are multiple books, which contain a lot of knowledge. It is up to you which one kicks you. Most of the knowledge is about Cosmology, Astrology, Mathematics, Science, and medical science. Few of them are dedicated to the way of worshipping. Few of them are dedicated to How humans should live in a society with harmony.
23:40 The Manusmriti he's quoting from isn't the original one. It's a mistranslated one. The original Manusmriti also known as Vishudh Manusmriti doesn't have anything of this sort.
British and muslims deliberately mistranslated the hindu scriptures cause they feared that sanatana will be more liked and followed by their religion 😅❤
Correct name Is Bharat as well as India, also reffered as Hindustan.. its not a Country.. Its a culture.. There's a reason South Asia is also known as Indian Subcontinent..
Hey reldrik please react to Keerthi history's video titled My Question To Sadhguru What kept the Indian culture alive It is a nice video I highly recommend

According to hinduism the basic metaphysical single binding unity behind diversity in all that exists is the Creater. Hindus will start saying when asked " Diffine your ultimate god the creater/ishwar" They will tell it is in piller, in materials (like atoms) and it is in you and me (like soal), it has multiple names. Spiritual gurus will tell its like sunlight you will not see it you will see its effect, you will feel its presences, it can travel from you to me, it can take any form and stay at a place and can go frim a place. So in conclusion it is Energy or Matter. Like never be created nor be distriyed, can chnage form like kinetic potential heat light, it can stay like a charge, it is in piller, in materials it can literally become matter E=MC^2.

And one more thing Shudra is actually people who provide any type of service, not just eating meat or tanning leather. Even famous artisans who were appointed by royals were actually shudras. The only disparity came of untouchability was due to hygiene issue back then . There were certain people who had the job of carrying human faeces were avoided due to breakouts of different diseases and sanitary conditions.
Untouchability was because of fake superiority complex of some particular community because they had knowledge of something that the untouchables lacks !! Accept it and move on don't cover it
@@spartaa_007 there is no covering it….ever heard of Nanda dynasty….the king was a shudra, it just a concept put in the minds by invader which still prevails
@@Bakaranger2712 Nanda, Maurya and many dynasty were shudra , but that's too old thing ! Untouchability came around 1500s to 1600s ! When the world started revolving around knowledge and not swords! So the community who used to gain knowledge for society used this as an opportunity for selfishness! Invader destroyed our culture but even we supported that to rule each other
23:50 Misinformation. THE LAWS OF MANU, or MANUSMRITI did not restrict the movement of the people from one caste to another. I have read the book; Manu did not fix any caste based on birth. In fact, it was not mentioned as caste, but Varna System. Many historians believe that Britishers were responsible for the emergence of Caste System (caste comes from Portuguese language), while others believe that influx of other cultures into Indian society brought about a hierarchy in the society in the form of caste.
I would like to draw your attention on the God Shiva. In west during translation west actually misunderstood God Shiva as a God of destruction. God Shiva is the God Of Change. What does Change means, it means destruction of something outdated and making room for new evolution.
Do read or watch the Mahabharat. It is an epic tale (we believe it is our history) which is 1000 times more interesting than any of the stories you would have read or watched.
23:58 Manusmriti never had any authority over hinduism. What was enforced as a rigid system was mostly due to human nature which is present everywhere. A king wants his heir to be the king, priest wants his to be priest, trader would want that for his heir as well, and they would do anything to get that done. Thus, a rigid system was born. Manusmriti was never practised or even considered as 'The book of rules'. The caste system was mostly demonised and vilified by the muslims invaders, brits, missionaries, and communists. But earlier foreign travellers to Bharat ie. India, like Megasthenes never mentioned anything about oppression. Indeed the word caste itself is wrong, we use the word 'varna'.
3:11 I want to say that Aryans is a Sanskrit word and those who said they come from the Central part of Asia there is not such record about that and the biggest h1a in India(indus valley compare to the route which those so called historians(left wing) says) and then the Europe facing Russia part has the the concentration of H1a and those historian😂 says Aryans come through chariot with horses 🐎 they and said there is no such horses 🐴 in central India but when there proof found of such they just hide it by saying those are Bullock cart they just want us Indian to divide that is there whole agenda😢

@@vishalrajshahi8517religious violence started when Isl*mic invaders came , first thing they did was k*ll th students and teachers of nalnda and takshshila University ( Worlds first University ) and burned millions of books British were actually better than muslims atleast in religious department, cause British did try to destroy our culture but they were more interested in money while m*slims were heelbent on killing, r*ping and converting hindus
There has never been a single proof given for Aryan invasion theory, it's all propoganda that was started by Britishers during colonialism. Latest genetic data has actually shown that the genes present in Indus valley civilization are the same genes as the so called 'native' people of the subcontinent , it just shows Harappa and Mohen Jodaro were native civilizations and no central Asian from outside came here on chariots

7:15 please do watch how the universe is created according to Hinduism.... it'll blow your mind if you wanna scale that..... let's hope you like maths 😂😂😂 ❤❤❤like your reaction ✌🏻
Caste is a Portuguese word and not Indian. Generally, people identify themselves through their Jati and Varna (i.e., family and community to which they beloon). British has used the word and created division in Indian society
Brief history of Vedas or brief history of puranas by project shivahom react ❤or the day in a life of a gurukul boy....react most of the students are foreigners
If you are not following any religion then you will be considered a Hindu ...that is also a part of Sanatan Dharma...you can refuse to follow any deity. It is ok. Just follow the basic human life etiquettes.
6:06 That pronunciation (and spelling) of "Brahman" is a little off. It should be spelt and pronounced as Brahmaan. With two "a"s. Important because the way he pronounced Brahman, is actually the way we pronounce Brahmin, which is the highest "Caste" in the so-called Caste system (actually it is the Varna system).
There is no caste system described in Any Sanatan books. There is only warna that means occupation caste system was created by British rulers to divide and rule over India in 1865. While in Gita and Rigveda varnas (occupations)are described in very detail that only occupation of a man is his varna like teacher is Brahman soldier is kshatriya businessman is vaishya and a man in service secter is shudra so where is caste comes? It comes from the mind of invaders who devides Hindus for rule on them.
Hinduism is not a religion.. it is about spirituality and philosophy... You can be an atheist and still be a Hindu.. you may or may not believe in idol worship, and still be a Hindu .. There is no word for 'religion' in any Indian language except for Urdu as it is influenced by the language of foreign invaders.
You see, Hinduism is the only religion that considers women as God. This is way ahead of modern feminism which has believed since thousands of years that the goddess of knowledge is Saraswati and the goddess of wealth is Lakshmi. Think deeply about this, this happened thousands of years ago.

It's hard remove those now but we are trying our best.
Some corrections: there is no mentions of caste system in any puranam or manusmriti. It was a mistranslation of varna system knowingly done by Britishers to divide and rule which till date caused a lot of distress in society( though not much in urban India). If you are interested in Mahabharat….best is to see the tv series on it…it’s really good, but then again if you want to read do read the translation of some actual Indian authors. Though it’s original author was Maharishi ved vyas who wrote the poem in Sanskrit.
Don't falsely accuse the british. Discriminatory caste system is mentioned not only in the Vedas but also ramayana and mahabharat. All these scriptures have promoted social exclusion, oppression and discrimination of a section of society
Why did ambedkar only choose to burn manusmriti????why not other Hindu scripts/texts
@@shyamjithsajith7897 I am not sure why? But what I can say is that, the poor fellow had a terrible childhood where he faced discrimination, though his education and everything was funded by a Kshatriya ( Maharaja Gaikwad) on recommendation of Dada Keluskar ( a Brahmin), he might have seen how the book was mistranslated by British to advocate hate towards something which never existed. So instead he targeted the book as it’s a easy way out rather than changing the minds of each individual. And why not any other book because manusmriti itself doesn’t have anything as caste system in it which can be seen in its first chapter where it mention varna which is derived from vrinja meaning choice. So their was no point in bringing forth any other book because it will make his whole point pointless.
@@shyamjithsajith7897 on top of it manusmriti was deliberately misused by the Brahmins in 15 - 16 th century to keep their wealth to themselves which also propagated Jainism and Buddhism in India. This also might be one of the reasons that I could logically think of. Obviously if there was some hidden agenda which I wouldn’t presume about a guy who was involved in making of the constitution .
@@shyamjithsajith7897because manusmriti is the only text which says that Brahmins are the most respectable and those without a varna are the least.
This philosophy coupled with a rigid caste system enforced by the discriminatory state made for a highly divisive and problematic society.
Ambedkar had said that it was impossible to remove the deeply entrenched caste system. Therefore it's better and more practical to erase the basis which asserts superiority of one caste over others.
Philosophically, the actual Brahmin (as a varna, not as a caste) had a very difficult life. They couldn't engage in earning or comforts. They had to rely on donations and we're only supposed to spread education, awareness and spirituality, which was considered the highest form of service.
Please note that this video is outsiders understanding of what Hinduism is. Even 90% Hindus don't understand what is Hinduism, that includes me as well. There is no one video that can explain it simply, but one key thing to remember is Hinduism is not an -ism at all, it's a way of life. This video is a nice summary but please don't judge Hinduism by anything said in this video.
Yes I would say it's just a simple introduction made from those that didn't know much information
@@ReldrikGeo You can react to projectshivoham, they make good analysis video of ancient Sanskrit texts.
@@ReldrikGeo Even Manusmriti is misrepresented by the british who translated it in English. British made Gurukul Education system illegal and banned any social support and assistance. There were more than 50 subjects taught in Gurukuls. British introduced convent schools.
One of the famous letter of Macaulay, he writes to his father: ′′ These convent schools will bring out children who look like Indians but are English by brain and they don't know anything about their country. They won't know anything about their culture, they won't have any idea about their traditions, they will not know their idioms, when such children are there in this country, even if the British go away, English will not leave this country.′
@@vishezar2137 True. People just read 2-3 misinterpreted Manusmriti verses and judge the book.
Manusmriti translation by Arya samaj is the most accurate
@@ReldrikGeo Bro as a hindu what i can say is that it was the british that SOLIDIFIED caste system in india.Things started to show changes only in 1300's or something when islamic invasions happened.In south india it happened way later.The OPPRESSIVE caste system that we think came abt in the 1750's. Varna system was GOOD as it helped the rulers to classify ppl and do the needful for them.Brahmins then were considered most important since they were the only ones giving and spreading knowledge.That's the only reason to respect brahmins,other than that everyone was seen.People mix varna and caste system and call them same.THEY ARE NOT SAME.Just remember , god creates differences for betterment NOT for discrimination.
this is a comment which i found in a video and this why even being an athiest i consider being a hindu by culture and have much respect for this religion

Yes, points of contention due to his source of information being from the west:
1. The age of our civilisation
2. The Aryan Invasion and tribes in India
3. Origin of the word Hindu
4. The nature of the content in the Vedas
5. The meaning and application of Manusmruti
6. The caste system origins and the later manifestation of the system.
‘Caste’ system is a creation of the colonial administration and divide and rule policy of the British. Hindus followed the Varna and Jati ,an entirely different and complex system.
Nope.. even before colonialism, people were oppressed based on their caste. The only ones blaming the British are the entitled upper caste bastards trying to justify their ancestors.
22:41 Krishna never said such words in Geeta, it just that our texts were badly translated in English!
If you're really interested in Hinduism i suggest you to watch more indian version of explanation!
There is a verse : catur-varnyam maya srstam
guna-karma-vibhagasah
tasya kartaram api mam
viddhy akartaram avyayam
@paperclips1306 guna karma vibhagcha means psycho-physical nature. It's not decided by birth but by our works. For example a guru who has known god is brahman, A soldier is kshatriya, a businessman or a worker is vaishya and a labour worker is shudra. Get it? It's not some caste thing, it's just thier nature and anyone can become anything by thier karma (deeds)
@@paperclips1306Bro they changed the context. There's a huge difference between Caste system and Varna system. That's why i said they poorly translated our text and changed their pretext!
@@kushagrakumar163Agreed! But unfortunately people so prevalently follow the Caste System implemented by British and then by the Politicians!
Most Sad part is that u can't even argue over this with our fellow indians!
@@SandhyaEve-ii5im yeah man you're right but people are getting aware about these things. I was also not aware some yrs back but thanks to social media, I'm also getting slightly aware. I hope it happens with everyone out there. 😊
There is no such things written in manusmiriti that you can't change your caste the thing is when britishers translated the manusmriti "The laws of Manu" they changed that part in that to do divide an rule, the guy who translated the manusmriti revealed this after quiting this job.
Really but they are still teaching this in schools
Our history was really fucked by congress wasn't it
There are so many fake things that are added in our history in past 70 years
true
Just the title is so misleading no santan text talks about 'laws' of anything that needs to be followed, Hindu scriptures are directional they are meant to guide not to be believed as commandments
@@NovelTuberManusmriti is a Code or Law for the humans to follow given by Manu Maharaj who is believed to be the very first Man that took birth on this planet. It's like a rulebook to guide humans about how to live life to its fullest potential. It's separate from the sacred scriptures like Vedas, Upnishads, Puranas etc.
@@Antrikshyatree smriti means something that is to be remembered meanwhile Shruti means something that is to be heard, Shruti includes Vedas and Upanishads who are authorless , Smritis include Kapla sutras, Puranas, Mahabharata, Ramayan, Bhagavadgita and multiple smritis, smritis are derivatives from shruits and are composed by man, Manu smriti is one of them written by sage manu. But neither shruits or smritis are commandments, they are prescribements, you need to have proper knowledge
There is a japanese anime made on Ramayana in 1992 , the legend of prince rama . You can watch it

Bharat (India) ancient name :- jambudweep,

Bharatavarsh,
Bharat,🚩🚩
Modern name :- Bharat
Hindustan,
Indica,
India 🇮🇳🇮🇳
Indica was the name given by Alexander The Great's era's Greek traveler-scholar-philospher Megasthenes. So I wouldn't call it "Modern" by any stretch of the imagination.
Abe Vedas Mai Likha Hua Hai Ki Hamara Desh Bharat Hai Aur kuch Nhi 🗿
23:19 true , although it wasnt covered in video. Not just British but spanish and french who created caste system as they didnt understand varna system but British used this to advantage and popularised it to divide and rule
Yeah. It was a surprise to me when I was first learning. I thought the caste system was an Indian thing. We don't really have it here in the US so any media around it is solely associated with India.
But that's what my channels goal is, to learn and understand the true history and culture
yep thats legit persians gave hindu term for ppl living near sindhu river and in 440 BC a greek geographer named herodatus changed it to india so name india was coined by greeks but indians call it bharat since time immemorial .. even in G20 meet it was written bharat
He gave us the name Indica, not India. But it became India over time. As far as I know at least.
Proude Hindu... ancient temples ancient scriptures ancient civilization...Not attacked any other country in 5000 year history
About the CASTE system, It had become rigid but still lot of inter movement was happening as you can see through out history lot of so called lower caste become kings and so called upper caste were doing lower cast jobs.
But when British came they were looking for cracks in the system and exploited them, They introduced word CASTE(which is not Indian but rather Portuguese) and through population census they grouped people in those caste system and even deemed them untouchables by birth, we have records to it.
Later then they started giving preferential treatment to people in upper caste like government jobs or contracts because of that it made fissure in society. In order to solidify their claim they occupied academic space and mistranslated and purposely miss interpaled our texts. Those academic matter and books are which circulating through out the world and when our writers and scholars tried correcting that they were ignored because they still has control our academic publications.
That's why we are still labeled as the casteist society. But I have hope that when to prosper we will rewrite our original history.
Proud to be born in this great country called Bharat 🇮🇳
I will just cite one example. When Hun Tsang visited India somewhere around the 7th century AD, Varanasi was ruled by a Shudra King. He mentions it, in his book. So the caste system was not at all rigid during his time.
Hinduism also explains how the universe works. Thats the best part
16:10 it’s Maha-Bharat where “Bharat” is India and “Maha” is prefix to imply humongous… it refers to the humongous size of armies that fought in the battle as the Bharat then used to span from Iran/Iraq to Mayanmar and Indonesia of today. There are some evidences that back these epics to have happened in real life but conclusive proof is yet to be found.
First 🥇
7:38 actually multiverse actually exist in sanatana dharma and its also mentioned in the scriptures
9:11 Hinduism teachings actually match with the current science like the age of universe, how the earth is round and it circles around sun and many of these information are written in hindu text which are the oldest ❤ ofc its not completely scientifically similar but its the closest out of all religions
19:57 just to be clear sati and parvti is the same person, when sati died she was reborn as Parvati so shiva only has one wife ❤❤
Also multidimension
Ofc , and such a concept thousands of years ago speaks volumes of the greatness and intelligence of sanatana dharama and its followers❤❤@@hackhack5524
In my opinion Hinduism does not recommends "one true science". So the pratyaksh pramana or direct evidence is more important than any text.
I never said it represents science i said that its the only religion where the info is similar to our current calculations using science unlike other religions who made things up
Birth of universe, solar system, age of universe and earth all of these mentioned in thousands years old scriptures are pretty similar to current calculations with evidence😊
Science is made to prove physical matter so its pretty much impossible for a religion to be completely scientifically accurate but atleast the core info on our universe, earth and humans in our scriptures is logical and realistic 😅

There are 4 varn according to scriptures which were always meant to be interchangable.. when British came and could not understand the system of Hinduism they gave caste according to Job.. they came up with 4000 caste while 2011 survey came with 4 lack caste some with even less than 100 people in them... There are just too many variables that were not understood... There is still debate going on if the varn vyavastha( system) had any merit... Now the politicle environment in India is such that people want their caste to recognised for reservations... It has become more of an identity politics than social problems
Yes the whole thing seems incredibly unfortunate and increasingly more complicated these days
Just to be clear : Hinduism can never be explained in its true essence. Only people who have lived as Hindu can really understand it. People who study it often study it as a religion. But it's not just a religion.
It's an amalgamation of various philosophies or schools of thought originated in the Indian Sub continent. The religion part of it is mostly influenced by a philosophy called 'Vedanta'.
The word Hindu in it's true form include all the Dharmic/Indic religions - Hinduism, Budhism, Jainism, Sikhism. It also includes Atheists who wants to be identified as Hindu(which means being Hindu is by self identification)
The best way I can think of to get the best idea of Hinduism is by going through the 2 Hindu epics 'Ramayana' and the 'Mahabharata'.

If you wanna read Mahabharat, make sure you read the BORI Critical Edition of it as the texts cant be mistranslated, manipulated and some can be based of local folk lore in other versions of the text.
As per Scriptural Analysis Hinduism is basically Henotheism.
Henotheism Definition is as follows:-
"Henotheism is the worship of a single, supreme god that does not deny the existence or possible
existence of other deities"
Religious Scriptural Evidence:-
In Hinduism, there is one god but many deities. first, know the difference between god and deity
Rigveda book 3, hym 54 Visvadeva , line 17 :-
महत तद वः कवयश्चारु नाम यद ध देव भवथ विश्व इन्द्रे
mahat tad vaḥ kavayaścāru nāma yad dha deva bhavatha viśva indre
"This is, ye Wise, your great and glorious title, that all ye Deities and Demigods abide in Supreme."
Rigveda 2.38.9
na yasya indra varuṇa na mitra vrata aryaman na minanti rudra na arāti tad idaṃ svasti hvā devamsavitṛ namaḥ
Him whose high law not Varuna nor Indra, not Mitra, Aryaman, nor Rudra breaketh,
Rigveda 4.26.2
I have bestowed the earth upon the Arya, and rain upon the man who brings oblation.
I guided forth the loudly roaring waters, and the Gods moved according to my pleasure
“Great indeed are the Devas (demigods) who have sprung out of Supreme God.” - (Atharva Veda)
Why deities are worshiped and the result:- Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7, verse 22:-
स तया श्रद्धया युक्तस्तस्याराधनमीहते |
लभते च तत: कामान्मयैव विहितान्हि तान् || 22||
sa tayā śhraddhayā yuktas tasyārādhanam īhate
labhate cha tataḥ kāmān mayaiva vihitān hi tān
Endowed with faith, the devotee worships a particular celestial god and obtains the objects of desire.
But in reality, I alone arrange these benefits.
Bagvad Gita, Chapter 7 verse 21
यो यो यां यां तनुं भक्त: श्रद्धयार्चितुमिच्छति |
तस्य तस्याचलां श्रद्धां तामेव विदधाम्यहम् || 21||
yo yo yāṁ yāṁ tanuṁ bhaktaḥ śhraddhayārchitum ichchhati
tasya tasyāchalāṁ śhraddhāṁ tām eva vidadhāmyaham
Whatever celestial form a devotee seeks to worship with faith, I steady the faith of such a devotee in
that form.
Bhagavad Gita: Chapter 4, Verse 11 :-
ये यथा मां प्रपद्यन्ते तांस्तथैव भजाम्यहम् |
मम वर्त्मानुवर्तन्ते मनुष्या: पार्थ सर्वश: || 11||
ye yathā māṁ prapadyante tāns tathaiva bhajāmyaham
mama vartmānuvartante manuṣhyāḥ pārtha sarvaśhaḥ
"In whatever way people surrender unto me, I reciprocate with them accordingly. Everyone follows my
path, knowingly or unknowingly, O son of Pritha."
Hinduism God gives many options of worship u can worship him directly through a medium or via
deities. It's up to each devotee which path he will choose this doesn't affect god he can hear both.

@@ReldrikGeo words like Varna, dharma, Maya, aatman have no direct translation in English, translators just choose the closest best word for them, like caste, duty, but it's not the correct translation if u are trying to understand the meaning of the text.

The Bhagavad Gita is a chapter of Mahabharata.
It's so important that it itself became more famous than the Mahabharata.
It can be considered as a condensed form of the philosophical knowledge of the Vedas.
Well you are correct about the British part. The caste system had issues before British came but they exploited and worsened it to create divide in society. They wanted each and every crevice in society exploited to achieve their goal of divide and rule. They intensified Hindu-Muslim divide, caste systems to further divide the Hindus as it still was a major chunk, basically they wanted no major group to exist which would pose a challenge to them.
Correction : Shiva's consort Parvati and Sati are the same, (forms of shakti who is immortal like shiva). This is the only god I have seen who is like very harcore "one wife" god in any culture. Shiva and his wife shakti they both are like more transcendental being. Shakti used to take human births. And marry shiva and die. Then shiva stopped it and made her immortal..and this sati and parvati both are her incarnations.
4:25 yeay that's legit. Foreigners gave us names, but the name of our nation that WE called was "BHARAT". I think we should only call India by this name.

According to hinduism the basic metaphysical single binding unity behind diversity in all that exists is the Creater. Hindus will start saying when asked " Diffine your ultimate god the creater/ishwar" They will tell it is in piller, in materials (like atoms) and it is in you and me (like soal), it has multiple names. Spiritual gurus will tell its like sunlight you will not see it you will see its effect, you will feel its presences, it can travel from you to me, it can take any form and stay at a place and can go frim a place.
So in conclusion it is Energy or Matter. Like never be created nor be distriyed, can chnage form like kinetic potential heat light, it can stay like a charge, it is in piller, in materials it can literally become matter E=MC^2.

Many historians believe that Britishers were responsible for the emergence of Caste System (caste comes from Portuguese language), while others believe that influx of other cultures into Indian society brought about a hierarchy in the society in the form of caste.
BHARAT
I would like to draw your attention on the God Shiva. In west during translation west actually misunderstood God Shiva as a God of destruction. God Shiva is the God Of Change. What does Change means, it means destruction of something outdated and making room for new evolution.
Ah interesting, thank you for the clarification
Do read or watch the Mahabharat. It is an epic tale (we believe it is our history) which is 1000 times more interesting than any of the stories you would have read or watched.
Mythology
This wasn’t completely correct. He actually insulted many things.
Hinduism is much much more deep n complex
Saraswati is not consort of Bramha.She is an independent goddess.She is daughter of ma Durga and goddess of knowledge.
Nice reaction 🙏🏼
23:58 Manusmriti never had any authority over hinduism. What was enforced as a rigid system was mostly due to human nature which is present everywhere. A king wants his heir to be the king, priest wants his to be priest, trader would want that for his heir as well, and they would do anything to get that done. Thus, a rigid system was born. Manusmriti was never practised or even considered as 'The book of rules'. The caste system was mostly demonised and vilified by the muslims invaders, brits, missionaries, and communists. But earlier foreign travellers to Bharat ie. India, like Megasthenes never mentioned anything about oppression. Indeed the word caste itself is wrong, we use the word 'varna'.
React on video call 16 philosophies of Hinduism

I want to say that Aryans is a Sanskrit word and those who said they come from the Central part of Asia there is not such record about that and the biggest h1a in India(indus valley compare to the route which those so called historians(left wing) says) and then the Europe facing Russia part has the the concentration of H1a and those historian😂 says Aryans come through chariot with horses 🐎 they and said there is no such horses 🐴 in central India but when there proof found of such they just hide it by saying those are Bullock cart they just want us Indian to divide that is there whole agenda😢
There's no evidence even in the origin place.
@@Me-nh3pt ya bro I don't know why people only focus on origin the most things that matters is the people and their philosophy isn't it that everyone comes from Africa is not the earth itself is the origin why make difference.
To create differences on the bases of cast,race and language or being superior is a western philosophy there no fight on the bases of God religion race and language in India before the invasion of British.
Europeans are the one who fight on this shit mindset and they try to closely drag India into this shit which was never be a part of Bharat philosophy.
@@vishalrajshahi8517religious violence started when Isl*mic invaders came , first thing they did was k*ll th students and teachers of nalnda and takshshila University ( Worlds first University ) and burned millions of books
British were actually better than muslims atleast in religious department, cause British did try to destroy our culture but they were more interested in money while m*slims were heelbent on killing, r*ping and converting hindus
There has never been a single proof given for Aryan invasion theory, it's all propoganda that was started by Britishers during colonialism. Latest genetic data has actually shown that the genes present in Indus valley civilization are the same genes as the so called 'native' people of the subcontinent , it just shows Harappa and Mohen Jodaro were native civilizations and no central Asian from outside came here on chariots
Cut down A from every hindu deity name he said in video and you have true pronunciation of them 😂
And this video gives half and narrow knowledge about hinduism
Mahabharat is greatest of the greatest epic
In the world😊
7:15 please do watch how the universe is created according to Hinduism.... it'll blow your mind if you wanna scale that..... let's hope you like maths 😂😂😂
❤❤❤like your reaction ✌🏻
It's actually Varna system, caste system is not from Hindu system
Caste is a Portuguese word and not Indian. Generally, people identify themselves through their Jati and Varna (i.e., family and community to which they beloon). British has used the word and created division in Indian society
You should react to PROJECT SHIVOHAM videos an hinduism.... he is a Sanskrit scholar...
Geta is the most life lesson you give better life

If you are not following any religion then you will be considered a Hindu ...that is also a part of Sanatan Dharma...you can refuse to follow any deity. It is ok. Just follow the basic human life etiquettes.
Good to know
Hinduism Video Channel Project Shivoham Is Good
6:06 That pronunciation (and spelling) of "Brahman" is a little off. It should be spelt and pronounced as Brahmaan. With two "a"s. Important because the way he pronounced Brahman, is actually the way we pronounce Brahmin, which is the highest "Caste" in the so-called Caste system (actually it is the Varna system).
You should next watch " shiva the living death " by sadhguru
This manusmriti is different from the real one
The actual meaning of Dharma could be 'Obligations'.
I can see that
Awesome
World first surgery in hinduism
There is no caste system described in Any Sanatan books. There is only warna that means occupation caste system was created by British rulers to divide and rule over India in 1865. While in Gita and Rigveda varnas (occupations)are described in very detail that only occupation of a man is his varna like teacher is Brahman soldier is kshatriya businessman is vaishya and a man in service secter is shudra so where is caste comes? It comes from the mind of invaders who devides Hindus for rule on them.
The concept of untouchables came from the Brits.
Yeah, it's unfortunate
Jhut bolta hai bey gorose😂
Congratulations, you have discovered 0.1% of Hinduism!
Yeah lol
Hinduism is not a religion.. it is about spirituality and philosophy... You can be an atheist and still be a Hindu.. you may or may not believe in idol worship, and still be a Hindu ..
There is no word for 'religion' in any Indian language except for Urdu as it is influenced by the language of foreign invaders.
I like that, it's open and allows for conversation and debate
nope SINDHU became HINDU which became INDO which later Became INDIA,
Watch BR Chopras mahabharat series from episode 1 🙄
You see, Hinduism is the only religion that considers women as God. This is way ahead of modern feminism which has believed since thousands of years that the goddess of knowledge is Saraswati and the goddess of wealth is Lakshmi. Think deeply about this, this happened thousands of years ago.
mhmm in christianity we christians worships lord mother mary gods mother 🙂🙂
