Caste system as laid out by Manu Rishi in Manusmriti
In Hinduism Caste System is very important. Caste system determines what a man should do with his life & how to chose his profession.
The social system, which includes factors such as cultural norms, education, social class, and personal preferences, can influence a person's job, social group, and marriage choices. These decisions are often a combination of individual agency and societal structures that shape opportunities and constraints on individuals.
Over time, Hinduism organized India's society into groups called castes. A caste is a social class based on a person's ancestry. Under such a system, people are born into a particular caste, which determines the jobs they can hold and whom they can marry. The Caste System still influences Indian life, although laws now forbid unfair treatment of "lower" castes.
Karma is the work done (involves mechanical, mental, socio-economical) by human beings that remains unchanged (conserved). Bad karma results in suffering and good karma helps in development of the individual. According to Hinduism Karma never dies, not even after the death of a human being and when he/she reincarnates, his/her karma determines with what qualities he/she will be born, in what family etc. In Hinduism Caste is the division of society according to the work and qualities of an individual. Not a single prime religious book of Hinduism (Vedas, Upanishads, Gita) say that birth determines the caste of a person or a person acquires the caste of the parents. In Gita Lord Krishna says God has made four castes according to the qualities and karma.
