No one is great or small by birth. Nor are they great or small by profession. But each one is great or small by Knowledge and learning. It is said that the wiser one shall be respected by the less wiser one based on learning and not on age. Hence the old sages under the Vatatharu were listening to Dhakshinamurthi.

I do not know where you got this idea that all are equal in EVERY aspect. A Chidabhasa dwelling in ignorance and under the control of maya is not the same as one that has realized this (maya) and is free from it is DEFINITELY higher than the wrorms that still wiggle in the gutters of samsara.

Confusing egoless AHAM-kaara for the ego (ahamkara) speaks volumes about the understanding of the whole concept. Back to the drawingboard.

You do not have to answer this, but curiosity drives me to ask if you are categorizing Rama and Krishna too in the same 'sand grain' pile.
