Being a Hindu never felt like following a religion, but rather like living a way of life. These words of mine are not meant to promote any particular belief, but to share my experiences of how powerful a good book can be, and what a person can become when they live by Dharma.
This isn’t about Hinduism, but about the wisdom found in ancient sources—from the Bhagavad Gita to the Chaturveda—every word promoting hope, righteousness, and the courage to face this world. Buddhism taught me selflessness, Christianity taught me gratitude towards God, and Islam taught me the purification of the soul and the importance of living a moral life.
With all these teachings, the discipline of Sanātana Dharma showed me a path. Viewing Prakruthi (nature) as the mother who manifests the physical world, and Adi Shakti as the universal creative energy, we understand the masculine aspect of the universe through Purusha (cosmic consciousness), which provides awareness and upholds Dharma.
Abiding by Dharma might seem difficult, but simply put, it means minding our own business, fulfilling our duties, and helping others with kindness—whatever the consequences may be. Life was never unfair; only karma, which reflects the outcomes of our actions, may seem unjust because our choices themselves aren’t always fair.
A simple smile, a sense of hope, and goodness within can keep us happy. No situation can truly affect us unless we surrender our strong mind to it. According to Hindu scriptures, there are four Yugas, and with each passing Yuga, the distance between Dharma (righteousness) and Adharma (wrongdoing) has shrunk—from different worlds in Satya Yuga, to different countries in Treta Yuga, and now, in this Kali Yuga, they exist within us. We now have the choice—not between good and bad, but between actions filled with courage, righteousness, and selflessness. Regardless of our religion, race, or country, in the end, we all share the same flesh and blood, guided by a consciousness that can help others around us. Animals live by instinct, but humans have the cognitive ability and sophisticated minds to choose good when we know better. Remember, even a small squirrel’s genuine help was acknowledged by God himself. Imagine what we are capable of. Being grateful to God is great, but why not make Him proud by fulfilling the purpose we were born for?
