    Manu basically is a Gem of a person.. Do not carry any baggages from the Past and his international exposure.. positions him in a perfect vantage point to observe, analyse, introspect and write...

    This guy has spoken about some practice followed by ruling class and landlords, to uphold their superiority in public. This are not very important topics for historic studies. These are misdeeds patronised by many small kings and their courtesans. I mean it has nothing to do with our Vedic tradition and practice.
    Some are Merrily drawing parrels to the present government.
    Don't get swayed by the misdeeds of some so called royal families, as our sanatan tradition.
    If you dig up there are numerous stories of atrocities, are they of any value, as a study material in mainstream history books, is not advisable.
