ness movement. Many so-called  brāhmaṇas  attempt to fight us, saying, "How can you create a  brāhmaṇa  out of a European or American? A  brāhmaṇa  can be born only in a  brāhmaṇa  family." They do not consider that this is never stated in any revealed scripture. It is specifically stated in  Bhagavad-gītā  (4.13):  cāturvarṇyaṁ mayā sṛṣṭaṁ guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ . "According to the three modes of material nature and the work ascribed to them, the four divisions of human society were created by Me."
Thus a  brāhmaṇa  is not a result of the caste system. He becomes a  brāhmaṇa  only by qualification. Similarly, a  Vaiṣṇava  does not belong to a particular caste; rather, his designation is determined by the rendering of devotional service.
