South Indian Brahmins marry their cousins.

Ch***yas. Not worth being called Brahmins.

Way way more intelligent than all other Brahmins though.

So it sort of pokes a huge bhosda into your intelligence via gotra theory.

No?

Close marriages cause mental and physical issues. This is a scientific and proven fact without any ifs and buts. Who knows that better than you?

But the tam.brams are brainier than you lot.

So are Parsis and Iranis.

Yes, cross-cousin marriages were allowed in Vedic times and are referenced in scriptures like the Mahabharata and Bhagavata Purana. While modern Hindu law and many cultural traditions prohibit cousin marriage, historical texts provide examples of people like Arjuna and Subhadra, and Krishna and Mitravinda, who were cross-cousins. However, parallel cousin marriages, where the cousins are children of two brothers or two sisters, were generally prohibited because they were considered to be within the same gotra or lineage.


Ancient Vedic period

• Cross-cousin marriages were common: Scriptures like the Mahabharata and Bhagavata Purana contain references to cross-cousin marriages.
• • Examples: Arjuna married his maternal aunt's daughter, Subhadra. Krishna married his paternal aunt's daughter, Mitravinda.
  • Context: These marriages are sometimes explained as acceptable because the parties did not share the same bloodline, as in the case of Arjuna and Subhadra, whose mother Kunti was the sister of Subhadra's father.

Modern Hindu law and culture

• Prohibition: Modern Hindu law, specifically the Hindu Marriage Act, prohibits cousin marriages if the couple is within the prohibited degrees of relationship, making such a marriage void.
• Regional differences: While prohibited by law, cousin marriage is still practiced in some parts of India, such as the South, due to cultural reasons that vary by community.
• Gotra prohibition: Marriages within the same gotra are strictly prohibited, as individuals within the same gotra are considered siblings, regardless of how distant the relationship appears. Since children of two brothers (or two sisters) typically belong to the same gotra, parallel cousin marriages are considered within the same family race and are not allowed.

So the crux of the matter is that south Indians are still following the old Vedic ways.

Whereas most of north India follows new Hinduism. That is around 2000 years old.

Puranic.

Versus the ancient Vedic.

I have many tamil Brahmin friends. I have not seen even a single case of Cousin marriages.

The more important thing is that no matter who you are, if you follow close marriages, it will have ill effect on mental and physical being. I think people consider Tamil Brahmins more intelligent because of education. I do not know whether they are more intelligent than other Brahmins.

The whole world considers tam brams brains.

Only Krishna wants to argue not on a Pakistani Lungi forum.

Ok.

@Lulldapull

Can you please share here the average IQ of cousin marrying Iran versus no cousin marrying India?

 

[Vsdoc]

No need to share photos of the two people.
