Sanskritization is a sociological concept introduced by M.N. Srinivas to explain a specific process of social mobility within the Indian caste system. It refers to the practice through which lower or middle castes adopt the customs, rituals, practices, and lifestyle patterns of higher castes, particularly the Brahmins, with the objective of raising their own social status within the hierarchical order. This adoption is not limited to religious rituals but also extends to dietary habits, language, clothing, rituals of marriage and death, as well as patterns of deference. Sanskritization as a phenomenon is deeply embedded in the cultural fabric of Indian society and provides a framework to understand the intersection of folklore, tradition, and cultural adaptation. It represents both a mechanism of continuity in the caste system and a channel through which marginalized groups aspire toward upward mobility. The concept of Sanskritization must be understood within the broader framework of folklore and culture. Folklore transmits the values, rituals, and belief systems of a community across generations. Through folklore, communities internalize social hierarchies and normative structures, which include caste-based stratifications. In this context, Sanskritization operates as a cultural strategy wherein folklore, rituals, and cultural practices are reinterpreted or replaced with those _______ ___ _________ _____ ___ ____ ___ _______ _______ __________ ____ ________.
