who told u that tamil pillais are sudras?

 

O my Great God....when u have doubts about ur cast just stick on to it...dare not to include other castes of which u know nothing....just go to the Tamil Nadu caste committee listing and u will find the Saiva Pillais to be Forward....

 

dont ever make this blunder mistake of calling Tamil Pillais as Sudras.....

 

They r great Shaivites.....V O chitambaram Pillai (famously called as 'kappal ootiya tamilan') a famous freedom fighter....look at his story and u will know the status of pillaivals....

 

The occupation of Pillais used to be in accounts...they were well educated and had high posts.....the Chief Minister of King Veerabandiya Kattabomman (another famous freedom fighter) was a Pillai....

as far as i know maharashtrian pillays are sudras. dhanraj pillay is from a scheduled caste . i have no idea about tamil pillai . kerala pillai's were certainly from the upper nair sect of warriors.

Kerala pillai's are Kerala Nairs only, the warrior group of kerala, there where lot of great warrior with name pillai in Kerala. Pillai was the position name given for the warriors by the kings like a commander, or an army leader.

"Titles like Pillai and Menon were also designations of officers at certain points of time."

this saivaneri site includes dhanraj pillay as one of the pillais. let me confirm that maharashtrian pillays( dhanraj fr example) were sudras infact untouchables . on the other hand tamil pillais were officers of the kings like accountants tax collectors and so on. on the other hand highest pillais are kerala pillais.they have either royal descent or they are grest feudal lords .i hope saivaneri doesnt mention dhanraj pillay as 'pillaI' .he is a sudra . pillays are . pillais are not .

the way u have posted the above post clearly states no matter whether the Pillais are upper or lower, U are clearly a lower man by character.....see the use of words like 'nut head' and 'idiot'

Come out of this bodily conception of life , saing i m a brahmna, I m sudra and so on

 

Brahmana iti brahma jnana- (brahmana has got a duty only to spread the Brahma jnana) well none of the so called brahmanas do that right? all the so called brahmanas are either Software engineers, bankers and many more, i mean all have become perfetc shudraas""

 

Give up this discussion

 

marry whomever u want - as far sa ur parents consent to your decision

 

hari hari bol

Dear Mr. Namboodri,

i do not to the notion of castes as a means of social discrimination, but i am a person with great interest in the origins of castes.

Without any personal offense, i deem it not just to apply the Aaryan varnas to South Indians as we are dravidians and our caste system is on a different basis and far much older than the Aaryan one.

i was recently reading a book by M.S.Purnalingam Pillai that says Vellalas (Pillais) are the highest tamil caste. Their trade was agriculture, and based on that it is very tempting to think of them as vaishyas. But many Tamil Kings were vellalas and they had their own peculiar gods and priests. so they were all brahmin, kshatriya AND vaishya.

I wish i could tell u more!

ur imformation is certainly new . but as far as i know pillais in tamil nadu are different types like saiva , vellala etc . howevr kerala pillais are a completely different sect . they r firstly not pillai . they are "pulle" which the britich pronounced as pillai . they were the kshatriyas
