About the Book
This book offers an insightful examination of the Bhagavad Gita and Ashoka's Dhamma through the lens of caste and untouchability. It explores the origins and evolution of the caste system, with a particular focus on the concept of untouchability, expanding the discussion beyond the traditional Brahmanical framework. The analysis delves into the implications of these ancient texts and their influence on the social structure, providing a fresh perspective on how these texts relate to caste dynamics in historical and contemporary contexts.
