I am a Brahman!

I am a Brahman – (an abridged and altered version of “Untouchable”) “There is none superior, hence, do not venerate and certainly there is none inferior; thus, do not desecrate”  - Tamil poet kaniyan (circa, 2500BC). You all know that, I was an untouchable at birth; a casteless, so called Hindu outcaste. Afterbirth, I became a Sutra, as my parents said so, and currently am a Brahman, as I said to myself.I was full of filth and had to be cleansed and washed by a midwife and few others too, sufficiently baptized, in the name of Father, Son and Holy spirit, before my parents could even attempt to cling on me; deprecatingly , though I am currently a Brahman, am still full of filth, guilt, angst, sins, hypocrisy, jealousy etc. etc. I am always in need of a wishful, joyful, Soulful and soulless, mental, and physical cleansing with a regular, detox ever since my birth and am acutely and chronically aware of it. Here you go, I was born untouchable and physically nowhere, 50 years
