Metamorphosizing social hierarchy

As our society advanced we mostly recognized triumph of capitalism, so, greater recognition of money or if education then money creating education , mostly unconcerned with values, morale, ethics n glorified punditgiri... Secondly, in modern age whatever u learn that must result into employment... That is why perhaps charm of scientist, researcher, teacher r loosing n MBA/broker like career is flourishing.....further with rise of Dalit entrepreneurs or backward classes doing well in business recruiting upper one in their enterprises r working as leveller in society...so, everything boils down to money....even Brahmins who used to be having monopoly on human wisdom is also doing MBA to manage the temple enterprise rather lecturing society about good human values....the purohit who charges high for family ceremony commands higher respect than others .....further, even knowledge has turned into " knowledge economy" so, no meaning of knowledge/ education in isolation.....gone r days when ppl had pursued whole life to reach personal knowledge pursuit n known for being "vidwaan" like Bharti or kalidas or Mandan Mishra whose parrot had learned all Vedas ......so, employment does cause  better equalizer.....yes, one good development is increasing dimension of education from sports to acting to technology to spiritual capitalism of babagir/ maa Giri......

history is always interpreted in different ways as per authour own preferences, biasness, backgrounds except facts...n even facts are put to serve one's interest...it's true orthodox Brahmins had been doing so to continue the grip on indian society, so I found all above facts not as an exaggeration...we still can feel how brahmincal mindset is there - caste violence, untouchability, temple as business, priest only Brahmin no other caste, no open competition for post in all famous temples, mosques only hereditary, Brahmins r mostly secretary, stronghold in armed forces, drdo, isro.... They resist any change as pt Nehru was himself against Hindu reform bill...Brahmanvaad has now become stronger not comprising only Brahmins but all upper caste seeing rise of Bahujan n backwards ...RSS is the last organization to create brahmincal dominance as we see cow 🐮 protection as tactics because they have created this holy animal to serve their ends....During Mughal or sultanate Brahmins were not troubled much as those empires were themselves fuedal, non-scientific, orthodox so Brahmin values n dictates were kept intacted. British was scientific, liberal, modern, capitalist so to serve it's end it had to make an open society for fair business as industrial revolution happened after enlightenment n reformation. But later British too followed divide n rule seeing power of each section- upper, lower, Hindu Muslim.. One important thing- as British were liberal, believer in democracy so recognized the importance of number which lower classes had so on the name of doing good to all they did so much reform to earn legitimacy/sincerity in their own eyes n among Europeans (all were colonizer but wanted to show each other that I was doing business or rule more ethically thats why Whiteman burden etc)... However we must recognize most of reformers from rammohan Roy to vidysagar to later Nehru n most of constitution makers were from bramincal wings. Some were self enlightened, another were guided by British n another were in hurry to replace British to continue rule. So nobody knows real intention of anyone. Historians speculate, connect n infer as per their own convenience, ideologies. We mostly read Bipin Chandra history, himself  Marxist ideologue or Ncert one guided by congress government n now may be moulded by RSS as rewriting of history is in talk. Even there are subaltern historians who mostly find congress as a party comprising Brahmins who wanted politics reform not social reforms. So we have to use our conscience n read multiple views to understand true nature of any section.
