The people of the Vedic Age were happy and prosperous. The whole of the society was divided into 4 classes, viz., Brahmin, Kshatriya, Vaishya, and Shudra, called Varnashram. The Brahmins had to themselves learn and impart education to the society. Kshatriyas had to protect the society. Vaishyas, being the trading class, had to engage in activities as would satisfy the everyday needs of the members of society. Shudras had to engage in menial works. The whole life of mankind was divided into Brahmacharya, Grahistha, Vanprastha and Sanyasa.
