Most people in India, not being high caste, are taught that they are spiritually polluted by virtue of the station into which they are born. "Spiritual/ritual pollution" is just a concept in anthropology that means a person or place is sort of metaphysically contaminated: dirty, sinful, wicked.
India's caste system is harsh and has been drilled into the Indian population for millennia. The Buddha, of course, broke away from it, but India reverted to the caste system after Buddhism died out in India.
Does being taught that you are ritually unclean, even polluted, cause Indians to ignore physical filth and even embrace it? For example, if you are certain that you are spiritually contaminated (dirty, wicked, impure), and that you must suffer your fate quietly and obediently in order to have a chance at a better incarnation in the next life, then you might feel like it's just natural and right for you to be surrounded by filth, even human shit, especially if it is the shit of your natural superiors who are higher in the caste system. Their shit is spiritually cleaner than your own soul, so you might as well form an affinity with it, embrace it. Maybe it will help clean you spiritually.
Being taught that you are as low as shit and nothing you do can change that in this life might lead the mind to give up on pursuing cleanliness as a futile endeavor, and might even lead the mind to embrace filth as something you deserve for having an impure, contaminated essence.

>Their shit is spiritually cleaner than your own soul, so you might as well form an affinity with it, embrace it. Maybe it will help clean you spiritually.
Also, since cow shit is more spiritually or ritually pure than most Indians' souls (cows are sacred and most Indians are not Brahmins), then it makes some sense to cover yourself in cow feces as a way of cleaning your contaminated essence or soul.

And I'm not hating on India with this post. I feel sorry for India and find India fascinating. I'm just curious about the deeper psychology and sociology of Indians' affinity with feces and general filth. It's a deeper issue than just lack of sanitation infrastructure. It's deeply embedded in Indian culture/thought.

That's too easy of an explanation and doesn't go deep enough.
And India is set to become a major player soon, what with the US transferring much of its industrial capacity from China to India.

The caste system isnt inherently different than the classical concept of hereditary virtue that existed in Europe and parts of the middle-east all the way up until the middle of the 19th century. In some ways it still exists today in western society.

Not really as even within the table of ranks of states like Rime or the hereditary nobility it was still possible (though difficult) to rise to a higher standing. Some of the Eastern Roman emperors were literal peasants or shitter footsoldiers that demonstrated some sort of skill even through until the high middle ages.

India’s caste system is heavily regimented and cemented by holy decree, meaning that no matter how rich or influential you become, you can’t escape the street shitter caste you’re born into.

Picrel is of Basil I Makedon, he was a literal peasant who became emperor
