I once work closely with devdasis who were brought to goa baina beach. It breaks my heart to hear their stories on how they were offered to yellamma and how pimps convince their parents by offering few thousands. Once they reach goa its the politician's and law holder who exploits them first. May this never happen to other daughters. Being a woman myself i was not able to work professionally. If gods are there...i do hope they will bring changes.

This is soo heart breaking to know that the system which as HIGHLY honorable, was dedicated to art, culture and women considered nearly a goddess during ancient times will damage to such extent during 19th century bec of invaders, temple breaking and no funds that they will be called as prostitutes! Those who used to be soo literate, rich, highly talented and powerful will become complete opposite of that. Really these invaders have caused MUCH damage to culture and art than we think!! This system must be change!! 💔
Neo Colonialism is still practiced via the Indian echo system which eulogizes & copy pastes the thinking & views of the invaders be it western or Mughal!!
this system must be restored but with old fervor and respect and this will be possible when we will take over entire system of bharat and run it as per dharma ,no sikularism, no socialism,no appeasement , dharm will put complete ban on prostitution in bharat or there will be a death penalty for that
@@AnshSinghal79 Bharat has to put a ban on prostitution BUT NOT that of body as a priority but of mind & institutions incl. media & courts!! Hindu temples are in govt. controls while most Hindus have forgotten Dharma & have become corrupt, selfish & self harming zombies!!

'It is never too late' even if we got to know about this info, what are we doing right now, except for feeling bad about the situation. That's the whole point!! Implementation.. Coming together to make change Or starting it alone!!
I cannot fathom why God needs entertainment from us. In the Gita, Lord Govinda clearly said that He is satisfied even if someone offers Him a small leaf (Tulasi). It's all about devotion and love for God. Then why do we need the Devdasi system? Yes, if women take their own decision on becoming Devdasis, that's fine but why force them from their childhood?
Agreed The real meaning gets lost and systems become corrupted because the society stops studying its own religion. Our culture evolves with time which is both good and bad. Good because beliefs remain acceptable to the society and Bad because , if we don't keep an eye on it , some people may start corrupting the culture to best suit their own agendas or benefits. This similar thing happened to our culture and to stop this we have to make sure that we and our children, study our culture and remain relevant with it so that these malpractices can never become norms in our society.
Dev Dasi (Female caretaker of the Temple deity) and Dev Das (Male caretaker of the Temple deity) Dev = God, Das = Male Caretaker or Male Servant, Dasi = Female Caretaker or Female Servant.
May be some states having these issues, I already reserch about this case. But in odisha it's very different. As Devdasi of Lord Jaganath, they are respected as Godess Maa Laxmi. They used to dance in odishi, and sing Gita Govind. So we are worshiping like Godess.
This video didnt cover many things as well. It missed many other musical maestros of India who learnt music dance etc in ancient times thru devdasi culture. Balasaraswati, Subalaxmi to name a few. Its also a misinformation that devdasi cant marry. Doordarshan aired a documentary long back which showed many dvdasis got married to noble men of society as well and also sometime the musicians who performed with them in temple. Temple demolition and abrahamic rulers made them change their song and dance from religious kirtan to romantic sensual ras filled rendition bcoz kirtans were connected to idolators which abrahamics were dead against with. Dhrupad song history gives us a good idea about how music changed from bhaktigiti to mujra in mughal court for musicians who survived by presenting their arts.
Dev Dasi (Female caretaker of the Temple deity) and Dev Das (Male caretaker of the Temple deity) Dev = God, Das = Male Caretaker or Male Servant, Dasi = Female Caretaker or Female Servant.

Devdasi system, in principle is very pious and sacred. In practice, due to Islamic invasions, British Invasions we were forced to change the definitions... Proper Education on what the Devdasi System is , how it is to be implemented... what are the perks of it, if a woman opts for it like Agnipath Scheme enables culture elevation. Mantra chanting enables the connect with God... system is not to be abolished because the practices are not good. Here, it is to be understood and implemented properly.
@מנג'וליקה מגיע wtf are you to say that sati system is regressive practice .what is your basis of the claim that it is a regressive and rudimentary practice? I mean see your bigotary that Voluntary euthanasia is acceptable to you because it is a modern and civilisd way of ending life, but if hindus practiced this Voluntary euthanasia with the name of sati pratha, you got a problem in it !!
@מנג'וליקה מגיע Also to correct you Mr. 'Manjulica is coming', sati pratha was an voluntary act that was carried out by willing men/women out of love for thier beloved husband/wife. This was not forced onto somebody as you claim. Also, interestingly, you dont find any major occurance of sati practice as a forced practice is found before 1608 AD, i.e. british arrival to India.....so get your'e facts correct before you lecture indians on indian systems/practices. Dhanyawaad.
I do come from a region where Devi yelamma is worshipped.But i have never come across this sexual exploitation part. We in our families respect devdasis a lot.We can't even think of such activities.They are treated very respectfully...We dont even talk anything inappropriate about them.
bhai, media and west are always trying to show india as 'place of devil' they thing that they are more supirior than us, this channel is also doing propoganda
Yes , I am from odisha , I have also never came across this exploitation part. We here at odisha also respect them, after all they are the part of our prabhu jagannath sanskruti.
Passing through the red-light areas of Mumbai, I have seen girls standing in the street who have a tattoo of Yellamma on their arm. I involved them in small talk and they confirmed that the they were initiated at the Yellamma temple in Saundatti.
In Puri Jagannath Tample the devdashi were called as Mahari(Mahan Nari) . They use to dance and sing before the gods at night and different occasions of the temple. There was a rule in Mahari system that Only girls born in upper caste form the age of 7 before they attain maturity should be given the status of Devdashi ... they were called as pila kanya(child bride).... Any random girl cant become a Devdashi to Jagannath
@user-di2kw6sf6m No one used anyone....You haven't seen a devdashi in ur life time....U heard some stupid stuffs and jumped into a conclusion that they were used....Iogicless conclusions 🤣
@@satyajitpatra6225 It wasn't stopped by any act but since the devdashi of puri temple then didn't adopted any girl child to continue the pratha after independence.... so the last surviving devdashi of lord jagannath devi Parashamani Mahari died in the year 2021 and the devdashi lineage vanished with her....In the 2015 Devi Sashimani mahari died who had actually performed the Mahari seva in the temple....These 2 were the last surviving Devdashi of Odisha🙏🏻
It was Honourable there is no doubt about it. holy women, monks from almost every religion remianed unmarried but Invaders never understood them in India and turned our civilisation into hell.
I am an Indian classical dancer, and I have a question for you. According to whatever research you are showing about active devdasis, are they practicing classical dance??? Not at all. How come they are still devdasis? Whatever ritual they are following have turned into prostitution. Remember that, indian classical music is more than science, and foreigners understood this so deep, that they have put so much efforts to destroy the image of classical music & dance. And bollywood has played a vital role to continue the invaders' plans, cz classical music is still not much accepted by the people. Blaming God for this ritual is same as people offering 'Bali pratha' in which they themselves have greed to eat the meat later.
Yes you are right mam foreigners just to stole every good thing from India and want to patent it as their own that's what they always do while making culturally rich country like ours believe that india's everything is uneducated and frictional like calling indian religion as myth and whatever in the above video too I questioned it why she is calling them Devdasi when they are not even performing any form of art and uneducated that's because how the Britishers and other invaders want us to believe and it's only human greed what happening to these ladies and girls there family are superstitious and brainwashed beyond repair to linking it with God. Our God is not cruel and demonic to want anything which cause harm to any living being or even nature. I totally agree with you how foreigners plan is being executive but literally saying indian classical music and dance is always been superior and can't be compare to any other music and dance. Our classical art forms are very expressive beautiful and relaxing and can say every words while performing them .

From medieval times that is from islamic and then british invasion this culture of denoting women as a goddess was turned into something so disgraceful that it has been used by people to target and shame our dharma. It is our own responsibility to save our women from such exploiting system and bring back the ethics of our dharma in our men and women both.
It's so sad to hear the story of dev dasi. Very much similar, I heard the story of harijans. Which today in North India became a separate caste and facing the huge discrimination in the society. If anything can trouble shoot this problem is education and government support.
I have read about them in Sudha Murthy's book 1000 stitches...where she and her dad helped them financially...even Crime patrol and Savdhan India showed few cases about them...
3:08 That whole bit about lower caste women head is later added on. Apply simple logic where did the head go of mata renuka after the beheading ? This is one of the examples that shows how the britisher changed the scriptures like manu smiriti to grow spite and create a lower caste and higher caste, something which never existed ever in the scriptures.
I completely agree with you.. But do know I europe they have this Nun system same as devdasi in India... The nuns had the same social status as of devdasi but Britishers had an intention to destroy the indian culture.. That's why they did all those things
All in all women are exploited by all over the globe by one means or another. 1. Women in Nazi Germany were Raped after Hitler was defeated and were shot in head. 2. The Japanese when attacked Korea, imprisoned women from 13-17 years and made them pleasure woman. 3. In America you can see if a 12 years old gets pregnant after rape, she can't go for abortion as she will be punished. 4. Taliban again banned the Education for women. 5. American woman worked their asses off during world war 2 in factories but they were paid 1/4th that of men. 6. In Japan when there was a concept of feudalism, the feudal lord had the right upon any of the Farmer's family girl to pleasure them 7. Now for your research there are several schools of thought in Islam that banned the halala and Triple Talaq, and mostly Islamic Countries banned Tripple Talaq but the laws are usually implemented by men so they choose to implement the interpretation that gives men the most rights.( Now mind it scholars are different from rulers, they are just people who do research and give advice, they don't have any power to implement it.) 8. In India the right to ancestral property for Hindu woman was allowed in 2005, many Hindu Scholars in Vedic period talked about the property of women, but no Hindu ruler, even before the invasion of Islam codified it and gave those rights to woman. So there are uncountable cases of inequality, violence and discrimination against women.

Aai Yallama mata is pur kuldevi and I never saw any such devdasi in our city's temple not sure about others, but some transgender people stay in the temple and they are highly respected by everyone, we touch they feets they are so close to goddess.
because they aren't devdasi anymore , they are prostitutes, just called devdasi(pollution of term) , they most probably don't stuff that a devdasi is supposed to do.
This shows that you don't even know what happens behind the doors!! The ones whom you're calling transgenders aren't actually transgenders but Men dedicated to Yellamma. After the man is dedicated to Yellamma, he has to live like a woman his whole life!

The real servants of Gods are those who serves every living beings without purpose by not getting attached. But what can we say its not Gods its toxic religious people.
Its not religious ppl. What happened here was against religion. Servent of Godb is sacred. Prostitute is not. Old system and ppl got corrupted due to invasions and destrucrions of roots and livlihoods.
another devadasi account is that of the first vaishnava chera king,Kulshekhara Azhwar.It was said that his daughter,Ilai loved Lord Ranganatha(Vishnu,who is also called 'Azhagiya Manavalan',or the handsome groom)so deeply that The Azhwar arranged for her marriage to the deity.She is still worshipped to date.We cannot forget one of the famous female azhwar,Andal Nachiyar.She also married the same lord,and is believed to be the incarnation of Bhudevi,the earth goddess,who is an aspect of goddess Lakshmi.
Andal was not devadasi, she was a saint just like meerabai she used to sing prabandams on vishnu and dream hereself as wife of krishna just like meera. After it is said she merged into rangamannar(meaning dead("dead" term is not used on saints/gods in hinduism just like anno domini in christianity or saying reached vaikunta in Vaishnavism). Same goes to kulasekara azhwar daughter chera kulattu Valli. Even some male azhwars themselves imagined themselves as Gopis and sung divyaprabandam and are said to be merged with God. As they are somehow related to vishnu. In tamilnadu devadasis were the ones who excels in sadir(bharatam) and spent whole time in temples and forts with temples. Andal and cherakulathu Valli aren't dancers they are saints. Saints too dedicate their whole lives to the gods but they are not devadasis. Saints and devadasis are different eventhough both dedicate their lives to gods because devadasis follow orders of priest/dharmakarta of temples but saints are independent they don't follow any orders. devadasis were mainly temple dancers in India but saints were not.

2:59 In Hindu Dharma, especially birth based caste is a recent times colonial imposition, however Varna (Occupation) was the original one, in Varna there was no upper or lower, people chose the work of which they are qualified for, and according to Bhagavad Gita, anyone can be a Brahmin (Teacher, Scholar profession), Shatriya (Warrior, Army profession), Vaishya (Trader, Business profession), Shudra (Other social workers) based on as per their skills, knowledge, and capabilities: 🔹In Bhagavad Gita 4:13, Krishna says that he created different Varnas [Profession] on the basis of one's Karma [Activities] and Guna [Characteristics]. 🔹Bhagavad Gita 5:18 “The truly learned, with the eyes of divine knowledge, see with equal vision a Brahmin, a cow, an elephant, a dog, and a dog-eater” 🔹Bhagavad Gita 9:29 “I am equally disposed to all living entities: there is neither friend nor foe to Me: but those who with living sentiments render divotional service unto Me, such persons are in Me and I am in them.” 🔹Bhagavad Gita 18:41 “The duties of the Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas, and Shudras are distributed in accordance with their Guṇas [Characteristics]. (Nothing comes with the birth except some divine Characteristics). Caste is an English term derived from the Spanish term “Casta” which stands for 'Breed' or 'lineage'. During earlier times, “Caste” use to be Varna (Profession) and based on Guna (Characteristics) and not merely just by birth. Instances from the ancient times proves that a so-called modern day “lower caste” can educate oneself with knowledge and change their Varna (Profession) to “upper caste”, e.g., Guru Valmiki, Kabir Das were from a Shudra family but became a Brahmin based on Guna (Characteristics or Essence), Ravana and his younger brother Kumbhakarna were Brahmins (educated person) from Northern India but because of their notorious Karmas (activities) all were punished by Shri Rama (believed to be an OBC if we abide by today's caste categorization). Lastly, you have to understand the British motive behind imposing the caste system:- The Caucasians (Europeans) created Hutus and Tutsis in Rwanda, Africa, to divide and control the native population, and for this reason, the Rwanda Genocide occurred. The same attempts and inequalities Europeans also tried to create amongst Indians by separating Northern India and Southern India into “Aryans” VS “Dravidians” and further dividing Hinduism into 3,000 castes and 25,000 sub-castes. Read about Herbert Hope Risley who created casteism, racism in Indian society by one's facial features and skin color, and Bishop Robert Caldwell who coined the term “Dravidian” and propagated the “Aryan Invasion” in Southern India to convert Southern Indians into Christianity. And read these books (1) Castes of Minds by Nicholas Dirks, (2) Western Foundations of the Caste System

Read the book - "Memoirs of a Geisha" by Sir Arthur Golden. It was the same in Japan with Geisha. Basically, Devadasi were Geisha of India. Geisha were Highly skilled Entertainers, Dancers and Musicians to Kings and Nobles. But later on, Their Profession was Corrupted and they were associated with Prostitutes.
I hsve read this book..prostitution is a very ancient institution. It's on this earth since the birth of civilization. Purohiths kings nobles rich men gave been using helpless poor women for their selfishness since thousands of years..
The British concocted a lot of myths for cementing rule in India. The Aryan and Dravidian divide was created by the British. The caste issues were there in India when the British came to India but not to the extent British portrayed it.

Neo Colonialism is still practiced via the Indian echo system which eulogizes & copy pastes the thinking & views of the invaders be it western or Mughal!!
this system must be restored but with old fervor and respect and this will be possible when we will take over entire system of bharat and run it as per dharma ,no sikularism, no socialism,no appeasement , dharm will put complete ban on prostitution in bharat or there will be a death penalty for that

If we were taught such things instead of Mughal, our country would be educated thoroughly not only on certificate but in our brain and we could experience the education as examples.. I am glad that i have found this video and the lesson. I support you heartily..keep upgrading 👍🏻
So u want young girls of age 10-12-14 to be taught about prostitution rather than the govt to mke changes wow..
I'm 27 and this video disturbed me sooo much imagine how much it wud disturb young minds

Idiot mughals are taught only in medieval history. School also taught ancient indian history and modern history.
I can understand u hate Muslims
'It is never too late' even if we got to know about this info, what are we doing right now, except for feeling bad about the situation. That's the whole point!! Implementation.. Coming together to make change Or starting it alone!!
I cannot fathom why God needs entertainment from us. In the Gita, Lord Govinda clearly said that He is satisfied even if someone offers Him a small leaf (Tulasi). It's all about devotion and love for God. Then why do we need the Devdasi system? Yes, if women take their own decision on becoming Devdasis, that's fine but why force them from their childhood?
Agreed
The real meaning gets lost and systems become corrupted because the society stops studying its own religion. Our culture evolves with time which is both good and bad.
Good because beliefs remain acceptable to the society and Bad because , if we don't keep an eye on it , some people may start corrupting the culture to best suit their own agendas or benefits.
This similar thing happened to our culture and to stop this we have to make sure that we and our children, study our culture and remain relevant with it so that these malpractices can never become norms in our society.
I agree with u. If some educated and talented women want to dedicate its life to temple and culture its good bt forcing it is wrong.
Dev Dasi (Female caretaker of the Temple deity) and Dev Das (Male caretaker of the Temple deity)
Dev = God, Das = Male Caretaker or Male Servant, Dasi = Female Caretaker or Female Servant.
Come to the religion of scriptures.
Bhai
Your entire existence is for for God.
Don't you think so.
May be some states having these issues, I already reserch about this case. But in odisha it's very different. As Devdasi of Lord Jaganath, they are respected as Godess Maa Laxmi. They used to dance in odishi, and sing Gita Govind. So we are worshiping like Godess.
This video didnt cover many things as well. It missed many other musical maestros of India who learnt music dance etc in ancient times thru devdasi culture. Balasaraswati, Subalaxmi to name a few. Its also a misinformation that devdasi cant marry. Doordarshan aired a documentary long back which showed many dvdasis got married to noble men of society as well and also sometime the musicians who performed with them in temple. Temple demolition and abrahamic rulers made them change their song and dance from religious kirtan to romantic sensual ras filled rendition bcoz kirtans were connected to idolators which abrahamics were dead against with. Dhrupad song history gives us a good idea about how music changed from bhaktigiti to mujra in mughal court for musicians who survived by presenting their arts.
Worshipping like goddess but bharmins & Kshatriya & vaishas sexed with them
Dev Dasi (Female caretaker of the Temple deity) and Dev Das (Male caretaker of the Temple deity)

Devdasi system, in principle is very pious and sacred. In practice, due to Islamic invasions, British Invasions we were forced to change the definitions... Proper Education on what the Devdasi System is , how it is to be implemented... what are the perks of it, if a woman opts for it like Agnipath Scheme enables culture elevation. Mantra chanting enables the connect with God... system is not to be abolished because the practices are not good. Here, it is to be understood and implemented properly.

@מנג'וליקה מגיע wtf are you to say that sati system is regressive practice .what is your basis of the claim that it is a regressive and rudimentary practice? I mean see your bigotary that Voluntary euthanasia is acceptable to you because it is a modern and civilisd way of ending life, but if hindus practiced this Voluntary euthanasia with the name of sati pratha, you got a problem in it !!
@מנג'וליקה מגיע Also to correct you Mr. 'Manjulica is coming', sati pratha was an voluntary act that was carried out by willing men/women out of love for thier beloved husband/wife. This was not forced onto somebody as you claim. Also, interestingly, you dont find any major occurance of sati practice as a forced practice is found before 1608 AD, i.e. british arrival to India.....so get your'e facts correct before you lecture indians on indian systems/practices. Dhanyawaad.
I do come from a region where Devi yelamma is worshipped.But i have never come across this sexual exploitation part. We in our families respect devdasis a lot.We can't even think of such activities.They are treated very respectfully...We dont even talk anything inappropriate about them.

Yes , I am from odisha , I have also never came across this exploitation part. We here at odisha also respect them, after all they are the part of our prabhu jagannath sanskruti.

In Puri Jagannath Tample the devdashi were called as Mahari(Mahan Nari) . They use to dance and sing before the gods at night and different occasions of the temple. There was a rule in Mahari system that Only girls born in upper caste form the age of 7 before they attain maturity should be given the status of Devdashi ... they were called as pila kanya(child bride).... Any random girl cant become a Devdashi to Jagannath
And also in jagannath temple's devdasi are not involve in prostitute they are like live goddess to people

I am an Indian classical dancer, and I have a question for you.
According to whatever research you are showing about active devdasis, are they practicing classical dance??? Not at all. How come they are still devdasis? Whatever ritual they are following have turned into prostitution.
Remember that, indian classical music is more than science, and foreigners understood this so deep, that they have put so much efforts to destroy the image of classical music & dance.
And bollywood has played a vital role to continue the invaders' plans, cz classical music is still not much accepted by the people.
Blaming God for this ritual is same as people offering 'Bali pratha' in which they themselves have greed to eat the meat later.
Yes you are right mam foreigners just to stole every good thing from India and want to patent it as their own that's what they always do while making culturally rich country like ours believe that india's everything is uneducated and frictional like calling indian religion as myth and whatever in the above video too I questioned it why she is calling them Devdasi when they are not even performing any form of art and uneducated that's because how the Britishers and other invaders want us to believe and it's only human greed what happening to these ladies and girls there family are superstitious and brainwashed beyond repair to linking it with God. Our God is not cruel and demonic to want anything which cause harm to any living being or even nature.
I totally agree with you how foreigners plan is being executive but literally saying indian classical music and dance is always been superior and can't be compare to any other music and dance. Our classical art forms are very expressive beautiful and relaxing and can say every words while performing them .

I have read about them in Sudha Murthy's book 1000 stitches...where she and her dad helped them financially...even Crime patrol and Savdhan India showed few cases about them...

3:08 That whole bit about lower caste women head is later added on. Apply simple logic where did the head go of mata renuka after the beheading ?
This is one of the examples that shows how the britisher changed the scriptures like manu smiriti to grow spite and create a lower caste and higher caste, something which never existed ever in the scriptures.
Your efforts deserves Big Thumbs Up...... The way you opened britishers wicked social reforming actions is really appreciable. ❤
I completely agree with you.. But do know I europe they have this Nun system same as devdasi in India... The nuns had the same social status as of devdasi but Britishers had an intention to destroy the indian culture.. That's why they did all those things
All in all women are exploited by all over the globe by one means or another.
1. Women in Nazi Germany were Raped after Hitler was defeated and were shot in head.
2. The Japanese when attacked Korea, imprisoned women from 13-17 years and made them pleasure woman.
3. In America you can see if a 12 years old gets pregnant after rape, she can't go for abortion as she will be punished.
4. Taliban again banned the Education for women.
5. American woman worked their asses off during world war 2 in factories but they were paid 1/4th that of men.
6. In Japan when there was a concept of feudalism, the feudal lord had the right upon any of the Farmer's family girl to pleasure them
7. Now for your research there are several schools of thought in Islam that banned the halala and Triple Talaq, and mostly Islamic Countries banned Tripple Talaq but the laws are usually implemented by men so they choose to implement the interpretation that gives men the most rights.( Now mind it scholars are different from rulers, they are just people who do research and give advice, they don't have any power to implement it.)
8. In India the right to ancestral property for Hindu woman was allowed in 2005, many Hindu Scholars in Vedic period talked about the property of women, but no Hindu ruler, even before the invasion of Islam codified it and gave those rights to woman.
So there are uncountable cases of inequality, violence and discrimination against women.

because they aren't devdasi anymore , they are prostitutes, just called devdasi(pollution of term) , they most probably don't stuff that a devdasi is supposed to do.

I learnt little bit about it in sociology but u made concept clear cut
I only knew that late singer MS Subhalakshmi was from Devdasi community.
another devadasi account is that of the first vaishnava chera king,Kulshekhara Azhwar.It was said that his daughter,Ilai loved Lord Ranganatha(Vishnu,who is also called 'Azhagiya Manavalan',or the handsome groom)so deeply that The Azhwar arranged for her marriage to the deity.She is still worshipped to date.We cannot forget one of the famous female azhwar,Andal Nachiyar.She also married the same lord,and is believed to be the incarnation of Bhudevi,the earth goddess,who is an aspect of goddess Lakshmi.
Andal was not devadasi, she was a saint just like meerabai she used to sing prabandams on vishnu and dream hereself as wife of krishna just like meera. After it is said she merged into rangamannar(meaning dead("dead" term is not used on saints/gods in hinduism just like anno domini in christianity or saying reached vaikunta in Vaishnavism). Same goes to kulasekara azhwar daughter chera kulattu Valli. Even some male azhwars themselves imagined themselves as Gopis and sung divyaprabandam and are said to be merged with God. As they are somehow related to vishnu. In tamilnadu devadasis were the ones who excels in sadir(bharatam) and spent whole time in temples and forts with temples. Andal and cherakulathu Valli aren't dancers they are saints. Saints too dedicate their whole lives to the gods but they are not devadasis. Saints and devadasis are different eventhough both dedicate their lives to gods because devadasis follow orders of priest/dharmakarta of temples but saints are independent they don't follow any orders. devadasis were mainly temple dancers in India but saints were not.

The brits destroyed everything. Moral of this whole story.
@coocoo-pe7yw 100% they were the ones who actually started it.
2:59 In Hindu Dharma, especially birth based caste is a recent times colonial imposition, however Varna (Occupation) was the original one, in Varna there was no upper or lower, people chose the work of which they are qualified for, and according to Bhagavad Gita, anyone can be a Brahmin (Teacher, Scholar profession), Shatriya (Warrior, Army profession), Vaishya (Trader, Business profession), Shudra (Other social workers) based on as per their skills, knowledge, and capabilities:
🔹In Bhagavad Gita 4:13, Krishna says that he created different Varnas [Profession] on the basis of one's Karma [Activities] and Guna [Characteristics].
🔹Bhagavad Gita 5:18 “The truly learned, with the eyes of divine knowledge, see with equal vision a Brahmin, a cow, an elephant, a dog, and a dog-eater”
🔹Bhagavad Gita 9:29 “I am equally disposed to all living entities: there is neither friend nor foe to Me: but those who with living sentiments render divotional service unto Me, such persons are in Me and I am in them.”
🔹Bhagavad Gita 18:41 “The duties of the Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas, and Shudras are distributed in accordance with their Guṇas [Characteristics].
(Nothing comes with the birth except some divine Characteristics).
Caste is an English term derived from the Spanish term “Casta” which stands for 'Breed' or 'lineage'.
During earlier times, “Caste” use to be Varna (Profession) and based on Guna (Characteristics) and not merely just by birth. Instances from the ancient times proves that a so-called modern day “lower caste” can educate oneself with knowledge and change their Varna (Profession) to “upper caste”, e.g., Guru Valmiki, Kabir Das were from a Shudra family but became a Brahmin based on Guna (Characteristics or Essence), Ravana and his younger brother Kumbhakarna were Brahmins (educated person) from Northern India but because of their notorious Karmas (activities) all were punished by Shri Rama (believed to be an OBC if we abide by today's caste categorization).
Lastly, you have to understand the British motive behind imposing the caste system:-
The Caucasians (Europeans) created Hutus and Tutsis in Rwanda, Africa, to divide and control the native population, and for this reason, the Rwanda Genocide occurred. The same attempts and inequalities Europeans also tried to create amongst Indians by separating Northern India and Southern India into “Aryans” VS “Dravidians” and further dividing Hinduism into 3,000 castes and 25,000 sub-castes.
Read about Herbert Hope Risley who created casteism, racism in Indian society by one's facial features and skin color, and Bishop Robert Caldwell who coined the term “Dravidian” and propagated the “Aryan Invasion” in Southern India to convert Southern Indians into Christianity.
And read these books (1) Castes of Minds by Nicholas Dirks, (2) Western Foundations of the Caste System

@@abhimalgattimalgatti4467 so don't follow. Put an end to this. There's no necessity in following something just because ye hamare purvoja DIYE huwa karikryam hai. Just becusse one of your ancestors started doing soemthing, developed their own belief doesn't mean you from the future has to follow it. If it makes no sense anymore or can cause future problems there's no need to pass on the beads
@@abada4588 hey who are you to interfere in there family matters? Let him/her ask her parents.
@@abhimalgattimalgatti4467 please ask about this to your family and not just decide it by watching a video.

That why healthy space for dissent is crucial in a religion. Otherwise people will keep accepting bullsheet in the name of traditions and religious believes.
Ooo maaaannnnn. I was looking for the same thing yesterday. I wanted to see your video on devdasi system
Education is very important to all. Government need to identify those kids and give them seperate space and training to tell then whats happening or going to happen to them in future and make sure these kids understand and change their couse for life and need to offer dedicated help time to this problems. 🙏

Dev = God, Das = Male Caretaker or Male Servant, Dasi = Female Caretaker or Female Servant.
What this show's is how powerful ones belief system is. It can either uplift you if your aware enough to do so or it can make you and people associated with you a hell. We have to encourage our child to question every believe whether its coming from the society or from our own parents. Thanks for sharing this horrifying thing going on in our society. Hope it will make people question there own and societies belief .
Such a dive with this subject...we are getting more aware how things started and where it's going now...they were High ranked people and looked upon different invasions...kings... destroyed their beings

How parents dare to do such things to there own child ... just can't think

Southern india mein tho ab nahi ho rahi aur ye itna prevalent bhi nahi hai neeche waale maamlo se compare kare tho...madamt ek hi cheez ko kitni baar video banaogi...please make a video on caste politics, varna system distortion, triple talaq,hijab history,halala,nikah,nuns, shariat ..please please please.. ek hi religion mein sab galtiya nahi hoti hai na.

Thanx for this awareness.....🙏🏼
Factless awareness u mean
'Devdasi System' should be banned and liberation from poverty should be strictly looked upon

Good message at your end
Colonial invaders has corrupted our ancient religious practices very sad I hope in future the ancient practice n respect returns in India.
How many more years do you indian need to respect women?
@@halocraze9839 i dono maybe never like before cause it's getting worse cause we are in a Kalyug.
@@akhilsrinivas031 ohh wow. Guess i found the reason. When educated urban dwellers believe in kalyug
@@halocraze9839 yes I believe 😂 I don't care whether ur educated or not
@@akhilsrinivas031 lol you didn't even care about your own education let alone mine
9:22 what ? Why the hell god needs offering of daughter . If it really a god then he doesn't need anything. Needing is an attribute of mortals not of omnipotence. If God is not omnipotence it is not a god.
Very well researched and informative.. this title was depicted beautifully by Sai Pallavi in a movie
Dev Dasi (Female caretaker of the Temple deity) and Dev Das (Male caretaker of the Temple deity)
Dev = God, Das = Male Caretaker or Male Servant, Dasi = Female Caretaker or Female Servant.
Thank you for sharing the information..
one of the darkest reality of Indian Culture
You are doing great gurl keep going❤
Read the book - "Memoirs of a Geisha" by Sir Arthur Golden. It was the same in Japan with Geisha. Basically, Devadasi were Geisha of India. Geisha were Highly skilled Entertainers, Dancers and Musicians to Kings and Nobles.
But later on, Their Profession was Corrupted and they were associated with Prostitutes.
I hsve read this book..prostitution is a very ancient institution. It's on this earth since the birth of civilization.
Purohiths kings nobles rich men gave been using helpless poor women for their selfishness since thousands of years..
Yeahhh i saw Geisha in japani n korean dramas
Very insightful and informative video. Thanks
The British concocted a lot of myths for cementing rule in India. The Aryan and Dravidian divide was created by the British. The caste issues were there in India when the British came to India but not to the extent British portrayed it.
congratulations for 1 million subscribers👍
Great work! This practice needs to be called out for the sake of little girls.
Plz make english version of this so that other people can know about it.
Now these information are something new and beautiful which shows how our culture was destroyed during these invasion. Gather knowledge about our culture that's the only way to rise and sign🙏🙏
devdasi system was not bad,
But because of Islamic and British Invaders they did things that made them this bad😶
A deep study on he subject. The system should be uprooted .
What about Nuns in kerala...and infamous rape case
Bata?
