janmana jayate sudrah
samskarad bhaved dvijah
veda-pathad bhaved vipro
brahma janatiti brahmanah
"By birth one is a sudra, by the purificatory process one becomes a dvija, by study of the Vedas one becomes a vipra, and one who knows Brahman is a brahmana."
Shrila Prabhupada said: The real aim of samskaras is to bring a rascal to the platform of knowledge. Janmana jayate shudrah: by birth, everyone is the same—shudra. In other words, one is without any knowledge. So the purpose of samskaras is to gradually bring a person who has no knowledge of spiritual life to the spiritual platform. As it is said, samskarad bhaved dvijah: by the purificatory processes, one attains spiritual rebirth. That is essential.
Hare Krishna!
