The Complete Framework of Varna, Jāti, and Caste: A book which may end discrimination.
Utilizing the author's extensive research on social behavior and Astronomy, this book aims to free the society from the clutches of Jaati and Caste.
This book offers the first integrated reconstruction of the Indic social order by bringing together textual traditions, historical institutions, and socio-economic organization into a coherent analytical model. Moving beyond ideological interpretations and fragmented academic debates, it argues that jāti formations evolved from functional and occupational collectivities rooted in earlier śreṇi (guild) structures - transforming over time under political, economic, and colonial pressures.
Where existing literature often treats caste through modern sociology, colonial anthropology, or contemporary politics, this work returns to indigenous categories and intellectual foundations. It distinguishes clearly between varna as a conceptual schema, jāti as social organization, and caste as a later interpretive framework, demonstrating how the conflation of these categories shaped modern misunderstandings.
Drawing from classical sources, historical analysis, and comparative social theory, the book argues-:
- Varna, jāti, and caste as distinct yet interacting institutions
- Jāti evolved from work-based communities linked to guild traditions
- Social Discrimination is indoctrination induced OCD.
