Dharma & CultureNowadays, some hyper-scholars are propagating the delusion in society that the tale of Shabari’s "tasted ber (jujube fruits)" is not in the Ramayana, and that Shabari was not a low-caste devotee but an upper-varna (class/caste) woman. This is not only contrary to the supreme import of the shastra (sacred text), but also extremely harmful to social samarasya (harmony) and is a manifestation of ego and malice.
