What they say
India had a rigid caste system where birth决定一切 — you were born into a caste and could never change it.
The Truth
Sanatan Dharma has Varna system based on GUNA (qualities) and KARMA (work), NOT birth. Everyone is born Shudra. Through education and selfless work, one becomes Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vaishya, or Shudra. The rigid 'caste system' was created and hardened by British colonial policies (1871 Census that assigned castes by birth).
चातुर्वर्ण्यं मया सृष्टं गुणकर्मविभागशः
“The four varnas were created by Me according to divisions of guna (qualities) and karma (actions).”
— Bhagavad Gita 4.13
Krishna himself says Varna is based on Guna-Karma, not Janma (birth). Valmiki was a hunter who became a Maharshi. Vidura was born to a maid but became the wisest counselor. The British introduced the 'caste census' that froze varnas by birth, creating the rigid system we see today. Before British rule, varna was fluid — a Shudra's grandson could become a Brahmin through education.
