Brahmin (/ˈbrɑːmɪn/Sanskritब्राह्मणromanizedbrāhmaṇa) is a varna as well as a castewithin Hindu society. The other three varnas are the KshatriyaVaishya, and Shudra.[1][2][3][4][5] The traditional occupation of Brahmins is that of priesthood (purohitpandit, or pujari) at Hindu temples or at socio-religious ceremonies, and the performing of rite of passage rituals such as solemnizing a wedding with hymns and prayers.[6][7]

Varṇa (Sanskritवर्ण), in the context of Hinduism,[1] refers to a social class within a hierarchical traditional Hindu society.[2][3] The ideology is epitomized in texts like Manusmriti,[1][4][5] which describes and ranks four varnas, and prescribes their occupations, requirements and duties, or Dharma.[1][6]
