Marriage

“O Dharmaja! I tell you about the marriage conditions.

The seed is important but not the field. The births of Vasishta, Rushyasrunga, Agastya, Vyasa, sons of Mandapala, Drona, Kripa are best examples. All of them inherited their Fathers caste.

In this connection, Manu said thus:

“ One shall not comment about the origins or births of rivers, sidhas and sages and saints. Why because, great people are renowned by their character, conduct, virtuous deeds but not by their origin or caste.”

said Bhishma.
