==Notes==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;The varna variety is an inevitable expression of Nature. We have no option in the matter. Instead, we should understand, assess, and be governed by it to properly lead our life and aspirations to the destined goals.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Vanamali. The Science of the Rishis: The Spiritual and Material Discoveries of the Ancient Sages of India. Toronto: Inner Traditions, 2015.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Because these are invisible, each is explained with its identification marks. For instance, regulation of desire, control of senses, austerity, cleanliness, tolerance, and straightforwardness are the traits that make the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;braahmana&amp;#039;&amp;#039; group. Braahmanas are generally calm and given to a life of self-restraint, inner excellence, and joy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Kshatriyas&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are extrovert in nature, but chivalrous. They have such qualities and inspirations that keep societal behavior under check and balance. Heroism, valor, will, skillfulness, not retreating from battle, being given to ample charity, gifting, the feeling of lordliness—these are the traits of the kshatriya or warrior group.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Agriculture, rearing cows, dealing in trade, commerce, and industry are the predilections of the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;vaishya&amp;#039;&amp;#039; group. And the fourth group, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;shudras&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, has the predilection to be ready and willing to serve others, using their bodily resources and skill.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Vanamali. The Science of the Rishis: The Spiritual and Material Discoveries of the Ancient Sages of India. Toronto: Inner Traditions, 2015.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
