Document Summary
Lecture 9/14: castes, brahmins, priests, dharma - highest sacrifice. Like a farmer - he"s gotta take control and take care of his farm so that it is productive and people benefit from it: shudras. If you are not a hindu, not born into the system, you are a dalit. If you have really good karma, then you could be born into the caste system: we do have divisions of people in western society. So the whole world was born of the different parts of his body: with the sacrifice, the gods sacrificed to the sacrifice, sounds a lot like the crucifixion, though the sacrifice, all things are able to be saved. If you follow those rules you will achieve good karma: karma - you reap what you sow, what you put out will come back to you. Some think they can do whatever and they just have another life to try again: to turn voluntarily to the truth.
