what kind of social differences do you see in the varna system
Answers
Answer:
Varna system is the social stratification based on the Varna, caste. Four basic categories are defined under this system - Brahmins (priests, teachers, intellectuals), Kshatriyas (warriors, kings, administrators), Vaishyas (agriculturalists, traders, farmers ) and Shudras (workers, labourers, artisans
Explanation:
Communities which belong to one of the four varnas or classes are called savarna. Those who do not belong to any varna were called avarna.[7][8]
This quadruple division is a form of social classification, quite different from regional Jātis which were later mapped, by the British, to the European term "caste".[9]
The varna system is discussed in Hindu texts, and understood as idealised human callings.[10][11] The concept is generally traced to the Purusha Sukta verse of the Rig Veda.
The commentary on the Varna system in the Manusmriti is often cited.[12] Counter to these textual classifications, many Hindu texts and doctrines question and disagree with the Varna system of social classification.[13]
