Gandhi and Matthew 25
...I am here to tell you that there are ... Brahmins (the highest Hindu caste) who are as fine specimens of humanity as you will find in any place on the earth. There are Brahmins today in India who are embodiments of self-sacrifice, godliness, and humility. There are Brahmins who are devoting themselves body and soul to the service of untouchables, with no expectation of reward from the untouchables, but with execration from orthodoxy. They do not mind it, because in serving Pariahs (untouchable, Hindu outcaste) they are serving God. I can quote chapter and verse from my experience.
