The derivation of the Kshatriya word means the one who protects others from harm. Kshatriya is a second character from the four वर्ण || varnas (class based on occupation) of the society. The work of the people of this character is believed to be the rule of the country and protecting them from enemies. In Indian Aryans, there are character arrangements from the very beginning, according to which they got second place in society. His work was to fight and protect the people. According to Brahman texts, Kshatriyas were calculated after Brahmins, but according to the Buddhist texts, the Kshatriyas attained the highest position in the society, higher than the Brahmins in four characters. Both Gautam Buddha and Mahavir were Kshatriyas and it strengthens this establishment that Buddhism and Jainism, on one hand, express the attitude of the Kshatriyas against the claims of superiority of Brahmins in society, whereas on the other hand, they express their aspiration too. The place of Kshatriyas was definitely considered to be the second after the Brahmins in the four characters. On the other hand, separate life also expresses his aspiration for Brahman life philosophy.
