History is sometimes so interesting that what is a problem in your own eyes may not be a problem at all in the eyes of others. What is a problem in the eyes of others may not be a problem in your own eyes.

Hearing this Wang Xuance's questioning, he laughed and said, "Everything that the little monk has learned comes from the fundamental doctrine of my Brahmanism, the Vedas, and this scripture, just like the Analects of Confucianism and the Tao Te Ching of Taoism, is the foundation of my Brahmanism. Therefore, it is not surprising that all my life's insights have been based on this fundamental doctrine. Since we talk about the strife between these two factions, and the elements of good and evil. So how about I'll explain it to you in detail from the beginning? ”

After all, they had heard a lot of Buddhist eminent teachings, and when they heard about this Kumarila this time, they were naturally happy to listen to it when they were ready to expound their ideas from the Brahmanical point of view. So one by one, they bent their ears and were ready to listen.

But listen to this Kumorira say: "The origin of our religion in the five Indias, like the many gods and goddesses in the land of China, also originated a long, long time ago. As for how many years it has been, not only has no one ever known, but it has never been understood. But more than 2,200 years ago, in the land of my five Indians, there was this clear doctrine and this Veda appeared, and this scripture was like your ancient I Ching, full of mysteries. Although this is the case, what is expounded is the principle of being a person and the principle of doing things. Later, after hundreds of years of development, our ancestors formed what we now have Brahmanism about 1,500 years ago. Of course, you naturally have to ask why did this surname system appear? ”

"Yes, yes, what the master said is very true, there is no such hierarchical division among the people in my Chinese land, and there has always been a saying that the prince will have a kind of Xiangning? And the people at the bottom can also step by step to the position of this eunuch and nobleman through this struggle, for example, I myself, who was originally an ordinary ordinary people, or an orphan, step by step to the position of the envoy of your country, so after arriving in our five Indias, when I found this problem, it has been very strange. Wang Xuance then explained to him along with Kumoriro's words.

With Wang Xuance's words, Zhou Zeng, Chen Maocai and others also said their identities as civilians, and couldn't help but throw the same question to Kumoriro......

So, this Kumori explained to them in this way: "The most fundamental reason for the emergence of this matter is that my five Indian lands, unlike your Chinese land, have always been a unified whole, not only the Xia, Shang and Zhou, but also the Great Qin, the Great Han, so that now your Great Sui, the Tang Dynasty, in short, have always been unified and occupy most of the time. And in the land of my five Indias, the period of unification is only the Mauryan Empire more than 800 years ago, and the Gupta Empire more than 100 years ago, and by the way, there is also the Holisha Empire established by the King of the Rings. The three periods of great unification, counted, are only 136 years for the Mauryan Empire, and only 180 years for the Gupta Empire, and you also know that there are only about 30 years for the Holisha Empire, and the sum of these three periods is only about 300 years, which is not as long as the unification of one of your Han dynasties; In other words, in these many historical periods, we are naturally a process of falling apart. ”

Hearing him say this, Wang Xuance and the others couldn't help but nod, feeling that this is indeed the case, a loose dynasty, in order to unify, in order to survive, should naturally have his unique method. I want to unify China back then, not only because the population of the Central Plains developed too fast, but more importantly, because of the two emperors of Yan and Huang, so that all Chinese people have a common concept and common roots......

After a slight pause, the Kumori said: "Although most of them are scattered periods, but I have the doctrine of this root, that is, this Veda because all the people agree with the main idea of this scripture, so the ruling class at that time, on the one hand, in order to better maintain its rule, on the other hand, in order to better manage its own country, and at the same time, in order to make the people live and work in peace and contentment, they introduced these four levels according to the original people, Brahmins are the mouths of primitives, Kshatriyas are the arms of primitives, Vaishyas are the thighs of primordials, and Shudras are the feet of primordials. As for the untouchables, they were excluded from the bodies of the original people. ”

"Why should the untouchables be sent out of the body?" Chen Maocai couldn't help but ask casually.

"Because there were very few untouchables at that time, I never thought that after so many years of development, untouchables would become one of the main races of my five Indians," Kumoriro replied simply.

"Later, it should also be clear to you that according to the development of this deity, there are these four classes, which are mutually restricted, not subordinate to each other, and live in an orderly manner according to their own order. Of course, killing is also strictly forbidden in my Brahmanism, so these four castes are also living in peace. These four castes can be so coordinated, which naturally has his advantages. Because all five Indian countries are relatively weak, we often have to face wars. Since the establishment of these four castes, they have played an inestimable role in dealing with foreign enemies. ”

"Oh, how do you say that?" Wang Xuance also asked Kumori casually with a hint of doubt.

"Because the same caste often lives in the same place, if there is a war in the country, it is much easier to organize and notify it. And this way of living according to caste also provides the basic security and survival guarantee for each caste, so that in my five Indias, instead of disintegrating the caste system, it will strengthen the existence of the caste. Because everyone has a basic right to live. Kumoriro replied dignifiedly.

Hearing him say this, Wang Xuance and the others also nodded from this actual situation, feeling that this sentence was very reasonable.

On the other hand, this caste system is precisely because of the fundamental doctrine of religion and is strengthened in the body of God. At the same time, it cleverly exploits the weaknesses of human nature, the instinct of the human heart, and the theory of psychological evolution. In addition, in the long course of life, because of the epidemic of plague and other diseases, and the difference in the food used by the various classes, the people of the land of India were unwilling to eat meat, or were unwilling to touch the rotting corpses or food that might make them sick, and thus formed a natural basis of isolation in the heart. This kind of basic thinking rooted in the common people was gradually formed. ”
