What are the 4 levels of the caste system?

The four levels of the caste system in traditional Hindu society are: 1) Brahmins (priests and scholars), 2) Kshatriyas (warriors and rulers), 3) Vaishyas (merchants and farmers), and 4) Shudras (laborers and servants). Below these four levels are the Dalits, who were historically considered outside of the caste system and faced severe discrimination.


According to Hindu beliefs why were people born into different castes?

SriKrishna, an avatar of Lord Vishnu, created the four castes- Kshatriya, Brahman, Vaisia Shudran. These castes are divided based on the qualities of humans and their family profession. No person is born into any particular caste. His /her caste is determined based on his /her character quality and the profession he /she undertakes. The caste system was developed purely for the purpose of organising the society and allotting works to the people. But over the years, the true meaning of caste system vanished and it has created cracks within the society. Caste system was not meant to differentiate but rather organise the society. Why would God want to differentiate people?
