Among the mixed classes, there are two divisions—*pratilomaja* and *anulomaja.* If a woman of a high caste marries a man of a lower caste, their union is called *pratiloma.* If a woman of a low caste, however, marries a man of a higher caste, their union is called *anuloma.* The members of such dynasties have their traditional duties as barbers, washermen and so on. Among the *antyajas,* those who are still somewhat pure in that they do not steal and are not addicted to meat-eating, drinking, illicit sex and gambling are called *antevasāyī.* Among people of the lower classes, intermarriage and the drinking of wine are allowed, for these people do not recognize such conduct as sinful among themselves.
