Sirs,
Smiritis mean"that which has to be remembered". Unlike vedas smiritis are composed by human and they list certain codes and rules governing the actions of individual, community and the society. They are also called dharma shastras. Manu is supposed to be a law giver and Manusmiriti is one of the 18 smiritis. They are not considered divine and can be modified. So there is a lot of latidute and freedom. Venkat
