Hari Om Parents
We learnt that Dharma has to be lived, not just learned.
The two important meanings of the scriptural injunction Achara prathamo Dharma (good conduct comes first) are:
Do your duty before asking many questionsGood behavior is of foremost importance in spiritual life
"Hinduism is built upon duties and not rights,"
The glorious Sanatana Dharma recognizes the right to do duties as the fundamental privilege in life.When everyone performs his/her duties, rights of others are automatically preserved.
There are ten values in life that characterize Dharma and that should be followed by all people
•Dhriti (fortitude or forbearance), -- strength of mind that enables a person to encounter danger or bear pain or adversity with courage•Kshama (for giveness or the ability to endure cheerfully),•dama (control over our organs of action),•asteya (non-stealing),•soucha (purity),•indriya nigraha (mastery over the organs of perception),•dhí (using the faculty of discrimination),•vidya (knowledge),•satya (truthfulness), and•akrodha (absence of anger) characterize Dharma.
