The conversation turned to the caste-system. Sri Ramakrishna said: "The caste-system can be removed by one means only, and that is the love of God. Lovers of God do not belong to any caste. The mind, body, and soul of a man become purified through divine love. Chaitanya and Nityananda scattered the name of Hari to everyone, including the pariah, and embraced them all. A brahmin without this love is no longer a brahmin. And a pariah with the love of God is no longer a pariah. Through bhakti an untouchable becomes pure and elevated."

Namaste,
I generally remove comments if it has a commercial link or an irrelevant link which is not connected to the above topic. This is mentioned in Guidelines on the comments page.
I do not remove any comment even if it is negative.
Caste system was very prevalent all over the world, lower labor class were classified as slaves. One can defend BG but the class system was mentioned and Hindus need to recognize the past error and move on . Thank you
