Kulinism (Bengali: কৌলিন্য) are Hindu caste and marriage rules reputedly introduced by Raja Ballala Sena of Bengal. The name derives from the Sanskrit word कुलीन (kulina). Kulinism (higher social status) refers to marriage of a kulina girl to a man in the same class as well as marriage to one in a higher class. It essentially asserts that a kulina woman must not have her status lowered by marrying into a group of lower rank. One's Kulin status remains valid for 36-years according to the rules stated by Ballala Sena.
