Hari is in the conscience of all. Differences are due to eight kinds of pride(due to food,money,women, knowledge, caste,beauty,status and youth). The supreme Yogis rejected them as evils. They realised that transcendental wisdom is the truth and such believers form the best caste.

Those who are engrossed in Vedic rituals believe that caste is important. This is due to Maya of Vishnu. Those who cross this hurdle realise that believers in Venkatapati's name belong to the best caste.
