Question

Earlier I asked a similar question but I’m changing my topic a little so can someone please help with this?
I mostly need my answers to be corrected and maybe added on to. Thanks!!
1. Did the Mauryas and the Guptas use religion to claim authority?
Yes, the people were placed into groups of importance and authority. There were four main groups. From highest to lowest, these were priests and teachers, rulers and warriors, merchants and artisans, then at the bottom there were the unskilled workers.
2. Was religion a guide to how they lived?
Yes. When practicing Hinduism, you could not work, marry, or eat someone of another social level. They had strict rules about their everyday lives.
