Are all members of India's caste system reincarnated?
In Hinduism, reincarnation is absolutely part of the doctorine of of the caste system. The caste that one belongs to is thought to reflect the status of the evolution of that particular individual attained throughout many lifetimes.
The western view that "all men are created equal" is totally at odds with the view of the Hindu caste system, which views each man as being on a particular level of evolution and ability.
There is a great deal of misunderstanding in this regard, both in the west and the east. For those who do not believe in the Hindu theories of reincarnation, the caste system may be considered to be demeaning and discriminating to the members of the lower castes . It might be considered an evil system which grants undue privledges to the higher castes and discriminates against lower ones.
In the theory of the caste system, the family to which a person is born is determined by the degree of advancement which an individual has made through many births, both human and otherwise. The duties of the individual and their station in life is then predetermined by their birth.
The orthodox Hindu view is that this system is beneficial to society and is in accord with the laws of nature, and that nothing at all is wrong with stratifying society into castes. In fact, this division into castes is considered necessary for the proper functioning of society.
These orthodox Hindu views can be considered controversial, and may not be make any sense unless one also considers the Hindu views of reincarnation.
