The Buddha taught people from all different castes. However, he was not a social reformer. In a belief system where rebirth plays an important role, the caste one is born into in any particular life is not that important. Additionally, a person may be born into a "better" or "worse" situation in his or her next life, depending on his or her actions in this one. (See "karma".)
