How was the original three-caste structure?


CEVAP:

The original three-caste structure was as follows:

1. The Brahmins symbolized the head of an organism. This group consisted of people who were priests and scholars with knowledge of the sacred texts.

2. The second group the Kshatriya represented the heart which symbolized defenders of society . They were politicians, soldiers and administrators.

3. A separate Sudra group peasants did not exist at that time, but all belonged to Vaisya grouping occupied with worldly matters.

4. Also, there were already people -mostly nonAryans- who were not included in this system. These people were later called members of the Scheduled Castes or better known as Untouchables
