Yoiu asked me a specific question and I gave you a precise answer.
Did you have trouble with the answer? If not why the mission-creep
here by jumping to a different issue?
Not that I can't answer it. But have important things to do .

Subject: [Assam] My Allergies
You may or may not be aware of the fact that I was born a caste
Hindu. One slightly higher in the food chain than some and lower
than the demigods. So I know ALL I ever needed to know about caste
Hindus and their sordid but not-so-secret ways.
And Bengalis had nothing to do with it, even though I have many fine
and close Bengali friends who have told me of their Hindu baggage,
which I have no doubt, is much heavier and more soiled than the
kharkhowa caste-Hindus', and does not make it lighter or cleaner
even if it was brought out in the open in vivid colors by the
Naxals and assorted 'leftists'., however vile they might seem to the
children of the superior gods.
C'da,
Just one question out of curiosity. You mentioned in one of your
emails that you were living in West Bengal before you left India.
Did you pick up your allergies towards caste hindu/hindutwa and all
the associated ideas over there. I understand that Naxalism was
just beginning to take root there at that time. Seems you are
caught in that time wrap and your present ideas have its foundation
from what you saw or experienced?
Regards,
Sandip
