What is SUDRA - is it really lowwer class?
People always discriminate the Vedic teachings mainly on the Class system teachings, saying Sudras are from the backward class & they are prohibited for many rituals, Temples, sandhaya Vandana etc।
Let see what did our Saints, History & Scriptures says about being borned in a Sudra Family.
Kabir Vani - Hari Na Bhaje So Bhangi "Those who dnt worship Hari/Parmeshwar they are all Bhangi/Sudra"
--According to Valmiki Ramayan
Sabri mata was from Sabar kul/ a community in which Meat eating & drinking was not a crime due to lack of knowledge. She left her house at the age of 9 & secretly served the sadhus in The Jungle. She served Matan Rishi his Guru for 50,000 years & when Matan rishi left for Vainkutha Dhama on his request she stayed & waited for Sri Ram for another 10,000 years. According to Nabhaji (Compiler of Granth Bhakta maal) Bhagwan Sri Ram incarnated just for Mata Sabri because just by his sankalp/thaught he can generate many universe & can destroy many universe & so to kill Ravana was not a big deal but to please his devotees he cant do it with a Sankalp but he personally appears to bless them.
Bhagwan Sri Rama in Valmiki Ramayan says to his 3 mothers - Mother the food cooked from your hand is wonderfull but it is not as good as Sabri Matas Ber & so he says the same thing to King Janak.
There is not a single Bharitya who do not know what is Sabri ke Ber. 9,00,000 years old Scripture proves Sabri mata borned in a Sudra family according to Rigvedi Brahmins such a Great devotee of Lord Rama which cant be described but how big was Lord Sri Rama a Bhakta of Sabri can be read. Sri Rama gave her instructions on Navdha bhakti/9 types of Bhakti & said you are an acharya of Navdha Bhakti. This was from Tretayuga
-----------------------------------------
A smritis, or code of conduct composed by sage Atri defines brahminhood very clearly.
"By birth, every man is a Shudra (an ignorant person). Through various types of disciplines (samskaras), he becomes a dwija (twice born). Through the studies of scriptures, he becomes a vipra (or a scholar). Through realization of supreme spirit (brahmajnana), he becomes a brahmin."
Janmana jayte shudraha ! sanskaran dwij uchyate
vedpathi bhaved vipraha ! brahma janati brahmanaha.
Scriptures says a person can become a Brahmin by Samskars, Chandragupta was a Sudra who turned a Kashtriya by the teachings of his Guru Chanakya Pandit.
-----------------------------------------------
Chokhamela 1589 or 1532 A.D - born in charmakardampatis house (Leather products maker) He was considered as a Sudra by Rigvedi Brahmans of Maharashtra/Pandarpur. Before Chokhamela nobody were allowed to enter the Garbhagraha/main alter of Sri Vithal Rakubai but only & only because of Chokhamela all were allowed to not only enter the Garbha Graha but also touch the lotus feets of Sri Vithal Rakubai.
