Ok this isn't a bait thread , this is just for bringing into light what Indians have thought of various castes for millenia. Generally there are few positives but it's still an interesting read.

I will start with Brahmins,

>>247590(OP)

>Baniya

Chamar cope premium

>>247598

Kayastha.

>>247603

This is a composite of various castes and their sayings for example a brahmin might be targeted by various groups and their views are summarised here. The same Brahmin along with other castes might target jaats intheir sayings. It's sort of aggregate rather than anything from lower castes.

what if we find out that it was just a seething chamar behind the caste bait posts kek

>>247607

Jaat.

>>247610

Brahmin hu be bhondu

>>247618

>>247630

Mahar,Dhedh and Pariah

>>247611

>If Jaat runs amuck it takes God to hold him

>A Jaat's laugh would break an ordinary man's rib

okay

>A whole family are said to have one wife between them

The fuck, who wrote this shit?

>>247636

>A whole family are said to have one wife between them

>The fuck, who wrote this shit?

Sm time ago a snippet was shared where the jaats shared his wives within the family. Aside from extreme scenarios, it might just be poking fun at the jaatni being too cozy with inlaws

>>247638

>jaats shared his wives within the family.

I think it's more about remarriage, Jaat never looked down upon remarriage like majority of other hindu castes, and if husband of a woman died, it was not rare to have her remarried to the unmarried younger brother, but never the older brother, you are supposed to have chunni when being with older brother or father of your husband

>>247638

Comparative.

>A black Brahman,a fair Sudra, an under-sized Musalman, a ghar-jamai (a son-inlaw who lives with and on his father-in-law), an adopted son are all birds of a feather.

>A dark Brahman, a fair Chuhra, a woman with a beard --these three are contrary to nature.

>The Kunbi died from seeing a ghost ; the Brahman from wind in the stomach ; the goldsmith from bile. The first is superstitious; the second over-eats himself; the third sits too long over his fire

>Brahmans are made to eat, Bhavaiyas to play and sing, Kolis to commit robbery, and widows to mourn.

>The Mulla, the Bhat,the Brahman, and the Dom, these four were not born on giving day.

>The Brahman is lord of the water ; the Rajput lord of the land ; the Kayasth lord of the pen ; and the Khatri lord of cowards

>A Khatri woman brings forth sons always ;

a Brahman woman only now and then--a rather cryptic utterance which may perhaps be a hit at the practice of female infanticide imputed to the Khatris.

>>247639

The lower the jaat in hierarchy the more he practiced widow remarriage. Another practice among jaats was to give to wives to Rajputs to rise in social class.

>>247641

"Kayasths, Khatris, and cocks support their kin ; Brahmans,

Doms and Nais destroy theirs."- why is this so accurate?

>>247640

>the Khatri lord of cowards

kek

>>247641

>Another practice among jaats was to give to wives to Rajputs to rise in social class.

Source?

>>247643

>A Turk wants toddy ; a bullock wants grain ; a Brahman wants mangoes ; and a Kayasth wants an appointment.

>A Dhobi is better than a Kayasth ; a Sonar is better than a cheat ; a dog is better than a deity ; and a jackal better than a Pandit.

>Kazis,Kasbis, Kasais, and Kayasths--the four bad K's.

>When the tax collector is a Jat, the money-lender a Brahman, and the ruler of the land' a Baniya, these are signs of God's wrath.

>Jats, Bhats, caterpillars and widows--all these should be kept hungry ; if they eat their fill they are sure to do harm.

>When the Jat prospers he shuts up the path (by ploughing over it) ; when the Karar (money-lender) prospers he shuts up the Jat.

>>247640

>under-sized Musalman

Aren't most of them like manlets tho

>>247645

>Another practice among jaats was to give to wives to Rajputs to rise in social class.

>Source?

From the same book. I will post smtime later.

>>247650

This book is from 1900s, things have changed a lot by now. Undersized doesn't necessarily mean tall it might just be good physique

>>247653

>Better have no friends at all than take up with an Afghan, a Kamboh, or a rascally Kashmiri.

>The crow, the Kamboh, and the Kalal cherish their kin ; the Jat, the buffalo,

and the crocodile devour their kin.

>The Gareri got drunk when he saw the Ahir in liquor. The Kachhi is not a good caste ; there is no virtue in a Mali ; and the Lodha is a poor creature who ploughs with tears in his eyes.

>>247652

Just share the book man, this shit is too brootal, also the fact you shared minimal material on Rajputs, i know what you are

>>247656

>In no man's land one makes friends with Gujars and Gaddis. T

>The Parsi, it is said, loses no time in breaking his word; a Parsi youth never tells the truth ;

a bankrupt Parsi starts a liquor shop, and celebrates the day of Zoroaster by drinking brandy.

>The Parsi woman off"ers a cocoanut at the Holi," and by the curious fact that the mitreshaped hat worn by old-fashioned Parsis is merely a pasteboard copy of a Gujarati pagri or turban.

>Crows your uncles and Parsis your fathers" is their rejoinder, in the suggestive style of Oriental innuendo, to the Hindus who call them crows on account of their custom of exposing their dead. " The Hindu worships stones," say the Parsis, " the Musalman bows down to saints; the Parsi religion is as pure as the water of the Ganges."

>>247659

I didn't share fact yet on Rajput cause I simply didnt find anything abt Rajputs. The said writer has also shown the Rajputs as the purest Aryans throughout this book along with Jaats, probably cause of the Rajputs being loyal to the British raj. And also probably cause a lot of his funds for this book came from Rajput rajas. Ormaybe i have just not reached the passages of the rajputs.

>>247661

>When a man cannot get a wife he turns ascetic. When his crop has been burnt the Jat becomes a fakir.

>She went to the fakir to learn morals ; the holy man stripped off her trousers." Kek

>The Afghan is faithless {Afghan be Iman). A Pashtun's self-will will bring him to hell. A saint one moment, a devil the next, that is the Pathan.

>The Pathans took the village and the Behnas (cotton carders) got swollen heads. A Pathan's mouth waters the moment his hands are dry, i.e. he is hungry directly he has washed his hands after a meal.

>Be a thief, be a thief!" say the Afrldi parents to their child as they pass it from one to the other through a hole in a wall, and thus baptize it in burglary.

>Here comes the Kakar besmeared with filth; when you meet him hit him with a stick ; kick him out of the mosque and you will save trouble all round.

>Though a Kasi become a saint, he will still have a strain of the devil in him.

>Hold up a rupee and you may see any Mohmadden, whether man or woman.

>Though the Jam be the Jam, yet is he by descent a Jadgal (converted Jat) and therefore not the equal of the princely race of Baloch."

>The Baloch who steals gains paradise for his ancestors even unto seven generations."

>The Med is wrapped up in his voyage, and his wife is wrapped up with her lover.(Dk who med is)

>>247668

>No one seems to have a good word for the Brahui. He is no man's friend ; he is the striped snake that bit the Prophet ;

he is always coveting other people's property ; he will quarrel over an inheritance even with his mother, against whom he enforces the tribal custom by which Brahui women are excluded from succession. If you have never seen an ignorant lump come and look at a Brahui ; he is the tail of a dog and his good is evil.

On muslims of India

>The Miyan swaggers abroad but is meek as a mouse at home;

when he comes back from tinning pots and pans, Bibl, his wife,

combs his beard; he is only a ser and she is a ser and a quarter.

>A cheerful couple, Miyan and Bibi ! when he broke his stick on her she smashed the water-jar. The Bibl cries for sweets and the Miyan licks the lamps in the mosque.

>The Miyan is ripe for the grave and the Bibi is ripe for the bridal bed. (January and May.) "Why weeping, Miyan?" " My wife died to-day." " Why laughing, Miyan ? " "I marry a new one to-day."

>When Miyan goes to Mecca, Bibi goes to Malwa.

>The Jat Musalman cultivator of Sind is a person of dirty habits ; two blankets and a half last him a lifetime. If you are civil to him he will knock you down.

>Educate a Jat and he becomes a nuisance to gods and men.

>>247673

>The face of a Mulla conceals the heart of a butcher. The Kazi will drink if he gets the liquor for nothing. The Mulla was drowned because he had never given anything to anybody, and could not bear to give his hand even to save his life

>So every one strokes the Mulla's cow until the Mulla dies from a surfeit of milk and parched rice.

>The Mulla is a thief and the Banga who calls to prayer is his witness. Half a doctor is a danger to life ; half a Mulla is a danger to faith.

>In the United Provinces they say, " A Musalman, a wasp and a parrot are no man's friends ; in time of trouble they will turn on you and sting or ^rovinoes!*^ bite."

>A Mulla will take a Rajput's wife with ease.

>Sesamum, molasses, and the love of a Musalman are sweet at first but afterwards turn to bitterness.

>Since when has the Bibi become a Brahmani,"

>The true Musalmans lie buried in their graves, and their faith lies buried in their books.

>The south of India also treats the subject from the Hindu point of view. The country that has no crows has no Musalmans. What does a beef-eater know of decent language? If girls are sold for a farthing a-piece, don't buy a Musalmani.

interesting thread, I plan to read it later. You should have made it in /sa/

>>247680

Regional:

>The local Proverbs. Marathas' retort courteous is :The fool of a Gujarati, kick him first and then he may understand what you want." "A Dravidian's nose-scratching" is another Maratha proverb aimed at the devious and insincere ways of the Dravidian Brahman who is represented as scratching his nose by putting his hand round the back of his neck.

>I have seen the land of Bengal, where teeth are red, and faces black."

>Bengal is the home of magic and the women are full of witchery," and " If a Bengali is a man what is a devil "

Kek

>A hungry Bengali cries ' Rice, rice ' "--is the gibe of the fighting races at a diet associated in their minds with effeminacy and cowardice.

>Twelve Bengalis cannot cut off a goat's ear

>A pagri on his head and nakedness below, the Assamese wishes to lead the way.

>The swagger of the ubiquitous Marwari money-lender, who pretends that he is a Raja in his own country, is thus ridiculed : "For houses hurdles of madar; for hedges heaps of withered thorn; millet for bread, horse-peas for pulse; this is thy kingdom.Raja of Marwar !"

>The three-tufted ones (Marwaris), the red-faced ones (Europeans), and the cactus plant cannot five without increasing."

Dayush do the needfool

Ok removing thread in 5 min

If somebody finds a translation or a readable pdf of JatiBhaskara then post it.

>>247691

Last on caste. The writer did dickride rajus and not post any stereotype about them. He also dickrode the Bengalis and wrote how the stereotypes are wrong. Kek

>>247693

Why? Can dayush not shift this to Sa?
