Abstract

Hinduism is one of the oldest faiths in the world. Its history is one, which to this day remains a matter of debate and deliberation, due to the lack of historical accounts and archaeological evidences.  I believe that by focusing on the loss of sacredness and mean-ing in Hinduism due of Jatization of Varna, it is possible to change the discourse on caste within Hindu theology.
