  26. SOCIAL CLASSES (Varnas) OF INDIAN SOCIETY
  27. SOCIETY IN ANCIENT INDIA Aryans helped develop the caste system: social groups that people are born into and mostly likely cannot change Castes had sutras, or rules for how you could live (marriage, types of jobs, etc.) Could not socialize with people from other castes Sets the rules for everyone’s behavior and helped Aryans stay in control
  28. Brahmanism Aryan religion was based on the Vedas, which includes hymns to the gods Aryan Brahmins wrote down their thoughts about the Vedas in collections called the Vedic texts The 1st two describe religious and secret rituals The 3rd collection is called the Upanishads Hinduism developed from this religion and a combination of other cultural ideas
  29. Hinduism Polytheistic Each god is part of the universal spirit called Brahman Everyone has a soul, or atman, inside them Your soul will eventually join with Brahman, which could take several lifetimes This process of rebirth is called reincarnation
  30. Hinduism and the Caste System When you are reborn, you take on a new physical form Your form depends upon your karma, the effects that good or bad actions have on a person’s soul People with good karma are born into higher castes and will eventually bring salvation, or moksha, freedom from rebirth Each person had a dharma, a set of spiritual duties that you must perform in your caste Hinduism helped keep the caste system alive because you had to be happy with your station!

  35. Sikhism Based on the teachings of Guru Nanak who lived in AD 1400 Blended Hindu ideas with Islam and other religions Monotheistic- believe in one God who has no physical form Goal is to be reunited with God after death You have to meditate to find spiritual enlightenment Believe in reincarnation Teaches that people should live truthfully and treat everyone equally Pray several times a day and must wear 5 certain items every day and a turban
