 According to this legend, Bharata performed an "ahimsa-test" (test of non-violence), and during that test all those who refused to harm any living beings were called as the priestly "varna" in ancient India, and Bharata called them "dvija", twice born.Jinasena states that those who are committed to the principle of non-harming and non-violence to all living beings are "deva-Brahmaṇas", divine Brahmins.The text Adipurana also discusses the relationship between varna and jati.
