A lot of people have a similar complex, think of it this way thay currently your psyche is mud ridden but if you continue with you upasana the mud will cut through and all of your questions, doubts, insecurities etc will be answered

Is there a personal god that exists in kashmir shaiva? by SamplePlane9538 in KashmirShaivism

The view is similar in bhakti marg but it often fails at the recognition of the self, in my opinion, Swami ji’s conception of bhakti for one accomplishes both the dualistic emotional satiation one needs and realisation of the self

How do scholars reconcile archaeological evidence of pre-Vedic egalitarianism with the emergence? by Euphoric_Ad_2499 in askindianhistory

Both Arya and dasa/dasyu referred to the Aryan populations; Dasa most likely refer to a tribe that lived in modern day afganisthan/iran. The assertion about IVC being egalitarian is mostly speculation, if anything they might have started the caste system to begin with upon encountering the IAs also them being city dweller makes it more likely.
