📌 “From Krishna’s lineage to contemporary leadership – the Yadav journey continues.”

🛑 Violence Is Not Dharma | Caste Arrogance Must End 🛑

In a deeply disturbing incident from Etawah, Uttar Pradesh, a Katha Vachak from the Yadav community was humiliated and had his head forcibly shaved by members of the Brahmin community, simply because he was narrating religious texts — and had not disclosed his caste identity.

Yes, if someone hides their identity in religious service, it may raise questions — but under no circumstance does that justify public humiliation, violence, or caste-based punishment.

⚖️ Who gave you the right to punish someone for preaching dharma?
🕉️ Is Dharma now the property of a few castes?
🙏 Do we now measure devotion by caste, not by intent and knowledge?

📌 Let’s remember:

🔹 Rishi Ved Vyas, who composed the Mahabharata, was born to a fisherwoman (Satyavati).

🔹 Lord Krishna, the greatest teacher of the Bhagavad Gita, was a Yadav.
The Jadaun is an ancient Rajput clan with a rich heritage rooted in the Chandravanshi (Yaduvanshi) lineage, claiming descent from King Yadu—son of Yayati—and ultimately from the mythic Lord Krishna

🔹 Sant Ravidas, a cobbler by caste, gave the world divine wisdom.

🔹 Bhakti and Gyaan (devotion and knowledge) know no caste.

✋ Public punishment like shaving someone’s head is nothing short of a crime, and it reeks of caste ego and medieval thinking.

We demand strict legal action against the culprits. India has no space for varna-based violence, especially in the name of Dharma.

Let this be clear:
🔊 Hiding identity may be wrong, but using that as an excuse for violence is far worse — it is Adharma.

🛕 Let Dharma be inclusive. Let devotees of all backgrounds speak and share the message of truth and love.

श्लोक:
सखेति मत्वा प्रसभं यदुक्तं
हे कृष्ण हे यादव हे सखेति।
अजानता महिमानं तवेदं
मया प्रमादात्प्रणयेन वापि ॥ 41 ॥
अर्थ:
“हे कृष्ण, हे यादव, हे सखे (मित्र), मैंने अज्ञानवश, प्रमाद से या प्रेम से जो कुछ भी कहा, वह सब क्षमा करना, क्योंकि मैं आपकी महिमा को नहीं जानता था।”
भावार्थ:
अर्जुन भगवान कृष्ण को अपना मित्र मानते थे और इसी नाते उन्होंने उनसे कुछ बातें कह दी थीं, लेकिन बाद में उन्हें अपनी गलती का अहसास हुआ कि कृष्ण तो भगवान हैं और उनकी महिमा का कोई पारावार नहीं। इसलिए उन्होंने कृष्ण से क्षमा याचना की।

🧬 Introduction: Who Are the Yadavs?

The Yadav community, traditionally associated with Lord Krishna, represents one of the most culturally rich and politically influential communities in India. With roots tracing back to the Yaduvanshi dynasty, Yadavs have played crucial roles in India’s spiritual, military, agricultural, and political domains.

In the 21st century, the Yadavs have risen to prominent positions in politics, sports, defense, business, and social reform. As of today, the community spans across states like Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, and Southern India, united by strong cultural values and a deep connection to dharma and social justice.

📚 Historical & Mythological Significance

• The Yadavs trace their lineage to King Yadu, an ancestor of Lord Krishna, one of the most revered avatars in Hinduism.
• The Mahabharata and Bhagavad Gita portray Krishna not only as a divine figure but also as a strategist, diplomat, and social reformer—roles that resonate with the modern Yadav leadership ethos.
• During ancient and medieval India, Yadavs held important positions as warriors and cattle-herders (Gopas), revered for their bravery and economic contribution.
