While reading into the happenings in this controversy tkhalli gopalakrishna a veteran brahminist writer said “ Brahminism has evolved into a complex web of contradictions , While large swathes of brahminists have now altered discourse compelling their maths to change course in order to stay afloat . The major contributions of personal wealth as donations to the math have only increased , clearly showing a trend to further strengthen the hegemony of brahminism in the Hindu religion . The fact that Pejawar seer had to play the negotiator on behalf of the warring maths shows the factual reality of reason and belief coming into direct conflict with each other , One side we have the rational education which teaches the brahminists , humanism and other end is the philosophy that teaches the brahminists about superiority and philosophy of twice born .
The Puttige seer is among the handful of brahminists who have been furiously trying to change certain aspects of brahminists to make it vable for the modern globalized India . Resisted by majority in the Ashta math he is the only seer fighting for abandoning of practices of purity in brahminism and sought changes in rituals that dominate ostentatious brahminist practices . It must be however appreciated brahminist philosophers unlike their co-religionists in the lower castes and backward castes have always sought to negotiate and settle for reconciliation and compromise and in some cases integration instead of the hawkish course of popular politics which would have discredited the
Brahmin community as is the case of OBCs and Dalits . Such moderation and mutual respect reflects the 5000 year old civilization of Brahmins which saw prosperity and continued brahminical hegemony over the Hindu religion .”

The unfortunate fact is the right wing and left wing and the vacillating centrist have consistently manipulated the system machinations to benefit their families and sycophants . Thus reducing goal of unified nation into a mirage , at best , a distant aspiration . Bringing unhappiness to the minority community which stayed back when the
