Sat-Sudra or High Born Sudra, also known as Pure Sudra, is a caste classification found in ancient Hindu texts and mentioned in several British Raj records.
Sat-sudra is a classification used to describe high-caste groups who are originally born Brahmins, Kshatriyas, and Vaishyas but do not follow their Vedic rites, hence becoming sudras in ritual rank.
According to the sacred Hindu text Bhagavad Gita verse 13.2: "Janmanā jāyate śūdraḥ saṁskārād dhi bhaved dvijaḥ," meaning everyone is born śūdra by birth, by samskara one upgrades to dvija status.
Sat-Sudras, placed after Brahmins, were considered higher caste, different from Sudras or asat-Sudras (the working class).
