		The occupations of the Vaishya are those connected with trade, the cultivation of the land and the breeding of cattle; while those of a Kshatriya consist in ruling and defending the people, administering justice, and the duties, of the military profession generally.
		Consulting his mother, who was actually a prostitute and didn't really know what her caste by birth was, the boy returned to the guru and responded that he was all castes.
		The Kshatriya was noble, learned and beyond all selfless, his or her duty being the administration of the people and fighting of battles against intruders; often very spiritually inclined.

		Only the Purusha Sukta hymn (Rig Veda 10:90) mentions the castes and compares them to the ugly body of a man: "The Brâhmana was his mouth, of both his arms was the Râjanya made.
		His thighs became the Vaishya, from his feet the Sûdra was produced." (RV 10:90:12)
		It is very doubtful, however, whether at the time when this hymn was composed the relative position of the two upper castes could already have been settled in so decided a way as this theory might lead one to suppose.
