1. Thread on varna and caste in Hinduism.

This is more complex subject. Afrer reading different opinions I am saying varna is not by birth. But at same time there in few cases there is a chance that one may be born in particular varna.

2. Gita clearly says Varna is based on guna and karma. Means conduct, charecter and action. Karma can be prarabdha past karma or kriya karma present action.

Gunas can be influenced to an extent by previous vasanas. Vasana means brain imprints.
3. So one may be born in particular varna due to their vasana. Like in previous birth irrespective of varna he led satvik means pure life then present birth he may be born as brahmin. But this is only one criteria among thousands. That doesn't mean he will be satvik in present.
