DHARMA
Dharma comes from the Sanskrit verb 'dhr', meaning to uphold. It refers to that which upholds an object, a way of life, or a society. Dharma is not a matter of belief but rather a law of nature. A life that follows Dharma sustains and flourishes.A dharmic civilization is one that sustains the planet, all societies, and all life.

Despite the rapid pace of change in our world, the needs and psychology of human beings remain fundamentally the same as they were thousands of years ago. The roots of our problems and the seeds of their solutions lie within us. The Dharma has a deep understanding of this, which has been repeated and handed down through the ages. However, modern society often finds these solutions difficult to access due to language barriers, cultural differences, misinterpretation, and the complexity of the teachings.
