Who is a Brahmin ?
Smritis or code of conduct composed by him defines
Brahmin-Hood very clearly as follows:

 "By birth, every man is a Shudra (an ignorant person). Through various types of disciplines (samskaras), he becomes a dwija (twice born).

Through the studies of scriptures, he becomes a Vipra (or a scholar). Through realization of supreme spirit (brahmajnana), he becomes a Brahmin."   
The belief that people born in the Brahmin caste, automatically become Brahmin, is a much later concept in d very ancient India.

Thus, Brahmin means not caste, but one who has attained Atma Jnana or Brahma Jnana.

● Sage Sri Valmiki who wrote Ramayana was not a Brahmin by birth.

● Sage Sri Vyasa who wrote Mahabharata was not a Brahmin by birth.

● Sage Vishwamitra was not a Brahmin by birth and yet he became a Maharishi.

● Krishna himself was not a Brahmin by birth either!

● The evil character Ravana in Ramayana was a Brahmin by birth i.e he was born to a knowledgeable Brahmin father, yet he is said as evil & bad.

If ancient Vedic religion had been discriminating people based on their birth, then would this have been allowed?

So dear all, who are foul mouthed and victim card players, please read my post. Still if you have any questions, only your IQ levels can save you.
