>>212966995>Dalit: BeggarThis isn't exactly right. Brahmins were supposed to be the beggars. They were expected to sustain themselves by seeking alms from Kshatriyas and Vaishyas.
Here's a quote from the Āpastamba Dharmasūtra, Prāśna I, Pāṭala 1, Khanda 3, verse 28:
>भवति भिक्षाम् इति ब्राह्मणः प्रार्थयेतWhich translates to:
>A Brāhmaṇa is to beg for alms, beginning his request with the courteous address "bhavati."Dalits were traditionally assigned tasks like leather work, dealing with animal carcasses, sanitation work, etc.,
