Being Kshatriya

[Shantanu]

When you live for truth and justice and you have surrendered to God, all ones valour

Basic definition of Kshatriya:

- anyone who fights
- anyone who likes to fight
- anyone good at fighting
- anyone who strains hard to fight
- anyone with courage, bravery and honour

And hardwork, persistence, determination

- anyone who is a mixture of Rajas and Sattva

You also need intelligence for the right strategy of warfare.

Not at all. Depends on what you term as intelligence.

Intelligence means having the right survival strategy in terms of dos and don'ts and the timing of any actions, for you have to survive to be able to fight.

imo hypothetically Brahmins can be martially dangerous because of their Sattvic nature which allows them to be motivated to train positively and they can fight with a clear mind in a relaxed manner.

Kshatriyas can be too quick, aggressive and fast thinking unable to focus on one thing. They are more wham, bam, thank you ma'am.

[Aupmanyav]

He wasn't a son of a prostitute, he was a son of a "*******" maid woman. He just did not know who his father was.

Which person are you talking about? And what is wrong in being the son of a maid? Vidur and Jabali were sons of maids. Jabali's mother had relations with many men. But how does that affect their 'gunas'. They were among the best of Hinduism.
