It was practiced mostly by the warrior castes and rich merchants. Polygamy in ancient India was a matter of personal choice, status symbol and at times social, moral and religious obligation. Marriage in traditional Hinduism was meant for progeny and carrying out obligatory duties (dharmakaryam) in accordance of a person's dharma so that the four major aims (purusharthas) of human life could be realized. If polygamy served these ideals, the Hindu law books did not object to its practice. Polygamy in the Hindu Law Books The Hindu law books made provision for polygamy and certain marriages under special circumstances, not for the purpose of carnal pleasures, but for procreation and continuation of family lineage. According to Hindu law books, a woman had no independence of her own. She always needed protection from her closest relations so that she would not seduce men and bring disrepute to herself and her family. It was the duty of her husband and the male members of his family to keep a close watch on her and never to leave her in the company of other males. If her husband died leaving her childless and without protection, she had the permission to marry his brother, strictly for the purpose of begetting children and find a shelter
