Explain why Hinduism development was more a social structure than a religion

The Indian social system was influenced by the concept of varna.[2] Varna is not caste and caste is not Varna. This is a critical difference not understood by many. It directly linked religious belief and the segregation of society into status groups. Weber goes on to describe the Varna system (the Brahmins - priests, the Kshatriyas - warriors, the Vaishyas - merchants, the Shudras - laborers and the untouchables).

Weber pays special attention to Brahmins and considers why they occupied the highest place in Indian society for many centuries. With regards to the concept of dharma he concludes that the Indian ethical pluralism is very different both from the universal ethic of Confucianism and Christianity. He notes that the varna system prevented the development of urban status groups.<span>[3]</span>

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Hopefully this is okay.

One must always contemplate its steps

Life is notorious for throwing curve balls.

Some would also consider life as ruthless,

taking without ever considering one's opinion

and worse yet it will happen voraciously.

But with time and ramifications,

One way or another,

One will always be reconcile with those they care about.

Marty has a fence in the shape of a rectangle. It's area is 635.4 square feet. the width of the yard is 18 feet. what is the len
jeyben [28]
Divide the area by the width (or the number that the problem gave you). So 635.4/18. This will give you the length because of the formula
length x width = area (formula for the area of a rectangle). So in this case the answer should be 35.3 

If you want to check your work just multiply the width by the length. 35.3x18= 635.4
