What happens
The bounds of caste are felt and seen most explicitly during ritual occasions. With the Brahmins taking center stage for ceremonies, their status as leaders of the spiritual hierarchy is made clear to all in attendance. The Kshatriyas, warriors and princes, make their own displays of power and status.\n\nOften overlooked are the Vaishyas, our traders and craftsmen. Seeking to advance their station, the representatives of the Vaishya guilds have requested that sufficiently esteemed members of their caste be allowed the right to ride palanquins and blow conch shells during certain ceremonies. Granting their request would upset the rigid Brahmins, but would earn the favor of the Vaishyas.
