In life and preservation of life consists the religion of the savage. What is however true of the religion of the savage is true of all religions wherever they are found for the simple reason that constitutes the essence of religion.

These are some of the factors which determine the place and status of a caste in this Hindu hierarchical system of castes. This hierarchical organization of the caste system is responsible for producing a social psychology which is noteworthy. In the first place it produces a spirit of rivalry among the different castes for dignity. Secondly it produces an ascending scale of hatred and descending scale of contempt.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR Bhim Rao Ambedkar

Bhim Rao Ambedkar (1891-1956) is certainly the tallest personality of Modern India.  His monumental contribution to leading the country towards modernity in general and democratization of the Indian society in particular, has not been adequately recognized and much less appreciated.  Signs, however, are clear that the twenty-first century will increasingly bring to light the implications of his life and message in almost all spheres of national life.  Ambedkar’s writings and speeches have been edited by late Vasant Moon and published by the Government of Maharashtra.
