K.T. Achaya the Indian food historian, had a map in his book which showed the extent of vegetarianism. I was shocked out of my wits to find the whole of India South of Vindhyas was majority non-veg contrary to my thinking it was all land of dosa, vada pav, attus, idlis.
Truly mustard seed worth of knowledge.
So in the long view of history that map also is an indicator of the still going on Sanskritization of India that got halted/slowed through the various invasions and 'reform' movements.
So the resentment shows up as anti-Brahmin movements. However as the people mature this will go away as the nation unifies. Dividers won't last long.
Just as one shouldnt have resentment for past dicrimination, one shouldn't have resentment for the current reaction. As Jesus says "Forgive them, Father, for they know not they have sinned!"
