Individuals are born into a particular caste depending on their actions in the previous
life. Good karma leads to rebirth in a higher caste and bad karma to a lower caste. One
can only become a member of a different caste through death and rebirth. Eventually,
the soul will attain moksha—alternately called salvation, enlightenment, or liberation
from rebirth—and become one with the universal power, Brahman.
