Chapter 4198: It’s hard to break a thief in your heart
In India, it has never been the law that can compete with the Brahmin system. The devastating situation in later generations has proved that the law is actually somewhat unable to withstand the people's hearts that have been spread by the Brahmin system for three thousand years.
Not to mention the feudal era, even when later generations enter modernization, the Brahmin system still has the power to confront the law. After all, the so-called law is only a manifestation of the will of the ruling class. In the face of something that is almost equivalent to the collective heart, the effect will never be
Great.
But precisely for this reason, the biggest enemy of the Brahmin system is actually the Brahmins themselves. During the Maratha dynasty, the Brahmins were crazily punished by Shivaji, the leader of the Maratha people. In addition, this man was very successful in overthrowing the Mughal dynasty.
, truly ruled over half of India.
However, due to issues of birth, Chhatrapati Shivaji was not a Kshatriya, but his fists were big enough to kill many Brahmins. If the Brahmins did not admit it at this time, the whole of India would definitely be in chaos. Chhatrapati Shivaji
· Shivaji belongs to the kind of hero in troubled times. In other words, if you don't give me face, I will just flip the table.
Of course, Chhatrapati Shivaji also knew that Hinduism had taken root here for thousands of years. He could suppress it with his fists for a while, but not for a lifetime. Moreover, when he really fell out with the Brahmins, how many of his followers would be there?
Whether you continue to follow yourself is also a problem.
So compromise is necessary.
Brahmins are naturally not fools, and they will give in when faced with such a big fist. But the biggest problem with Chhatrapati Shivaji is that he is different from the previous invaders. Those guys are outsiders.
So they are all born Kshatriyas.
Chhatrapati Shivaji was a Sudra with a clear origin, and his father and grandfather both had such an origin. As a result, Brahmins could not directly change their caste. They needed a logic that could reconcile the past.
After all, he was a man of culture, so he wanted to be shameless, so after collective discussion among the top Brahmans, they came up with a lineage. Shivaji's ancestors were forced to move south to Rajpur in Central India due to the Muslim invasion of North India more than 300 years ago.
Special family.
Afterwards, Shivaji first confessed that he, as a Kshatriya, had been a Sudra for so many years, and then went through the holy thread ceremony to make up for the Kshatriya wedding, completing his caste promotion.
It sounds like there is no problem, but in fact there is a big problem here.
Just because of such an adjustment, the Rajput clan has a population of tens of millions, and basically every capita is a Kshatriya. What does it mean to stab oneself? This is stabbing oneself.
Therefore, to truly suppress the Brahmins, we have to rely on the Brahmins themselves.
Since Altay came to see Khosroi and realized that Khosroi is the pillar of this country, he must completely win over Khosroi, and it is very low-level to win over a person with money and beautiful women. Altay directly
Coming with the ideals of Khosroi.
Even if Khosroi did not realize his ideal idea, Altay came directly with a model of success. They have now become the biological fathers of Brahmins, so all they have to do to solve the Dalit problem is to find a suitable reason.
Khosroi is strong enough, which is the reason, and Dawn can suppress it, which is the second reason.
As for Dalits being promoted to other castes, or even becoming Kshatriyas, this has nothing to do with Altay. This is just a plan, clarify the requirements at each level, and implement it.
"How?" Altay looked at Khusroi and said with a smile, "As long as the soldiers of the Dawn Army reach the level of strength, they can be classified as Kshatriyas, how about it?"
Khusroi opened his mouth, and he suddenly realized that this was indeed a way to solve the problem, and it did allow Dalits to escape their previous predicament without destroying the country.
What's more important is that compared to destroying the system and handing over the entire operation to Dalits, this method is at least reasonable and clear. What's more important is that Khusroi also knows that what most Dalits want is not
What they want to overthrow the old world and establish a Dalit country is actually to get rid of the Dalit caste.
This kind of thinking is not brilliant, but this kind of thinking is more realistic.
Khusroi once thought about overthrowing everything and establishing a Dalit country. Later, Khusroi clearly realized that the limits of ability are one thing, and most Dalits may not agree with it.
"Then there are more Dalits..." Khusroi said slowly. At this moment, he seemed extremely serious. He was really thinking.
"We will clarify the conditions required for caste promotion, and then you will send people to announce it to other Dalits, giving Dalits the qualifications to be promoted based on military merit. Shuguang is an example." Altay said with a smile on his face.
It is just a variant of the military merit title system, and it is not a problem at all for the senior officials of Beigui. They had watched the Qin Dynasty use this method to overthrow the other six countries, and then watched the Han Dynasty use the same method.
Chao Qian defeated the Huns.
"You are the hope and the dawn of Dalits, so it is up to you to bear the responsibility." Altay's tone did not contain the slightest hint of deception, but Khusroi's heart was filled with excitement when he heard it. He had no choice but to
This is indeed a solution to Khushi Roy's Dalit problem.
"The stronger you are, the higher the upper limit of this system, the stronger the dawn, the higher the upper limit of the universality of Dalits." Altay said, "I think you have also realized that many Dalits do not dare to act like
You, like the Dawn under your command, go to overthrow the Brahmins."
Yes, this is the dilemma that Khos Roy is currently facing. Dawn's soldiers really dare to punch the Brahmins. At least under Khos Roy's training, they really dare to punch the Brahmins who oppress them.
But the vast majority of other Dalits have actually been domesticated.
Why did Perna prepare to die in an unclean way when he died? It was because he realized that it is easy to kill thieves in the mountains, but it is difficult to kill thieves in the heart. I worked so hard, gave up glory and wealth, came to the Ganges, and led the local people.
Dalits tried to build settlements little by little. Finally, you Dalits thought that I was a Brahmin. What an insult? This is an insult.
Just like Xia Yu, the male protagonist in Lu Xun's "Medicine", all his efforts are to save the entire country. He possesses almost all the noble qualities of a revolutionary. Even when facing death, he sacrifices his life generously, but in the end the country he wants to save
, the people he wanted to save, faced with the scene of Xia Yu's generous sacrifice, just dipped some steamed buns in his blood and used it as a folk medicine.
Those people have no idea about saving the country or the nation. What they think is useful is just the effort they put into decapitating them. In fact, even this idea is wrong!
The same is true for Dalits. In fact, the vast majority of Dalits cannot understand Perna's behavior. Perna, who is dressed in white linen and clean, leads them to explore the wilderness, gives them food, and teaches them rules.
In their eyes and in their hearts is Brahman.
Even if Perna had not experienced hardships and hardened his determination, he would actually be a Brahmin. The Brahmin caste is very strange, but whether he is noble or not can actually be seen in many cases. This is why Perna is determined to die from uncleanness.
If he dies in a noble image surrounded by this group of people, then he is a Brahmin, not a Dalit. He must die impurely. As for whether it is useful or not, Perna can't tell. The thief in his heart cannot be eliminated.
Don’t do it all, just try your best.
In fact, from this point of view, Khusroi actually sees it more clearly than Perna. Compared to unrealistic and thorough solution to the problem, Khusroi, who has witnessed the Dalit Jura, is more willing to find a way out.
A path that others can follow.
The majority of Dalits cannot inherit Perna's path. They are just sparks. To become a prairie fire, at the very least, most Dalits need to understand what to do, why to do it, and the most important thing.
The important thing is that Brahmanism is not sacred.
Those Dalits who are willing to follow, there are very few who really realize this. They are willing to follow, just like they were willing to follow the late king Guo Si, just because Guo Si brought about changes, which are better than before.
But among the nearly one million Dalits back then, how many actually understood it and got on the right track? One in a thousand, this is a fact.
The young people in the Dalit community are willing to follow Perna, and the Dalits who know Guo Si are willing to follow Guo Si. It is not so much chasing ideals as believing in their followers.
As for what their choice is, it doesn't really matter, they are willing to follow it.
Perna realized this, Khusroi realized this earlier, and both sides experienced the collapse of Dalit Jura, but their paths crossed.
I should dedicate this body to the late king and inherit the legacy of the late king. Even if most people cannot wake up, I should pass on this belief and carry it forward. One day, Dalits will understand, wake up, and carry this belief with them.
Faith burns away all restraints, and stands upright with one's body against the sky and the earth.
This is Perna's path. He knows that even if he reaches his limit, he will never see that day, because this is the path of true independence. But with such a legacy of belief and knowledge, one day he can no longer rely on others.
No matter what the external force is, stand up.
This body should lead Dalits to break through the darkness. Even if it is as fleeting as morning dew and ephemeral, they should make their own choices as human beings.
This is the path of Khusroi, and this is also the reason why Khusroi’s soul and will were clouded when he faced Dalit Jura, but he did not give up completely, because Dalit Jura was in Khusroi.
It seems that even if it is a mistake, at least it is a mistake chosen by Dalits themselves.
This is the difference between the two sides. Of course, this difference is not that they cannot coexist. It is just that Perna's Sparks will start a prairie fire. Sooner or later, he will destroy the thief in his heart. Naturally, Khosroi's path is also within the scope of destroying it, but it is really there.
On that day, Khosroi probably won't feel the slightest sadness.
Because Khusroi also wanted to destroy the thieves in his heart, but unfortunately he couldn't. Even if he did it, the vast majority of ordinary Dalits could not do it. Even in good conscience, Khusroi knew that
, many of his Dawn soldiers actually want to become Kshatriyas.
"I used to think very far, but later I realized that I just wanted to make Dalits live a better life." Khusroi looked ahead. There were obviously tents in the way, but it gave people a sense of far-sightedness.
It feels like maybe he is really looking at the future of Dalits.
Altay nodded. It was precisely because he recognized this that he was willing to offer Khosroi such a bargaining chip.
Yes, it is not for Dalits as a whole, but for Khushroi.
In Altay's opinion, only Khosroi is worth winning over. Although people like Beigui do not discriminate against Dalits, in the eyes of the real Yuezhi, there is no difference between Brahmins and Dalits. They are both things that deserve a beating.
But the easiest way to win over Khusroi is to win over all Dalits, so his plan benefits all Dalits.
But in reality, as Altay said, the upper limit of this system is Khusroi. The stronger the Khusroi, the higher the upper limit, while the upper limit of ordinary Dalits is the dawn. The stronger the dawn, what they want
The higher the upper limit you can obtain.
"I will lead them!" Khosroi became obviously excited. Although he could not completely save the Dalits, the path given by Altay, compared with the past, can at least be said to be correct and can continue.
of!
"Very good." Altay nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Oswin, "Oswin, you have to work harder. If you can go further, many things won't be a problem."
Oswin curled his lips, he couldn't even figure out how he got promoted to this point.
"Okay, you can go and train separately. I will also take a rest. I am getting old and my energy is a little low." Seeing Oswin's expression, Altay waved his hands to the two of them, indicating that they should retreat. The army still needs to strengthen training.
.
"If Khosroi was born into a royal family, many problems might not be a problem." After the two left, Altay sighed and said, the other person's qualifications are really good, but it is a pity that they are limited by the environment and mentality.
That's it.
"Uncle." Vesudeva I suddenly appeared with his guards. Altay, who had just laid down to rest, quickly sat up. He didn't really want Vesudeva I to see his weak side.
"What happened again?" Altay's eyes sharply swept over Da Zizuo who was following Vesutiva I. He was obviously not very strong, but he had an unexpected power.
"A letter came from Mengkangbu from behind, saying that the purge has been completed." Vesutiva I said cautiously. Hearing this, Altay narrowed his eyes and instantly turned into an ordinary old man.
"The ship has finally been produced?" Altay exhaled and said.
"Yes, the birth is finally ready." Vesudeva I said sadly.
