Sri gurubhyon Namaha
What Sri Parashurama did was dharma rakshana,
not indiscriminate killing. A brahmins foremost duty is to practicse dharma and
help others follow, Brahmins follow non violence, this does not mean that if
evil people come to destroy his practise of dharma he runs away to anothers
refuge, he has to face it with the might he has or find out the right one who
can protect him. Since all the kshatriyas were corrupted, he cleansed it of
them.
One cannot run away from his duty of dharma rakshana saying that he belongs to
one varna
A brahmin has to uphold vedas, yagas
A kshatriya has to protect the brahmin to help him do it
A vaishya has to donate money and things for the darhama and yagas
A Shudra should serve the others to ensure that they have all that is needed to
perform their duties.
Sri Kamakshi

Praveen ji, Pranaam
Precisely the context of this whole discussion. brahmin only by birth? what
about all the killings? to be ignored because he killed only kshatriyas?
