Il bramino, detto anche bramano, brahmano o bracmano (devanagari: ब्राह्मण, IAST brāhmaṇa), è un membro della casta sacerdotale del Varṇaśrama dharma o Varṇa vyavastha, la tradizionale divisione in quattro caste (varṇa) della società induista. I bramini rappresentano la casta sacerdotale e costituiscono la prima delle quattro caste: a loro spetta la celebrazione dei rituali religiosi più significativi.
