Interesting about dharma: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dharma Whenever there is a decline in Dharma (righteousness), O Arjuna, and rise of Adharma (unrighteousness), then I manifest Myself. -Gita, Ch. 4, Verse 7: (Yadaa Yadaa Hi Dharmasya, Glaanirbhavati Bhaarata Abhyutthaanam Adharmasya Tadaatmaanam Srijaamyaham) That which knows the path of work and renunciation, what ought to be done and what ought not to be done, fear and fearlessness, bondage and liberation- that intellect is Sattvic, O Arjuna. -Gita, Ch 18, Verse 30. That by which one incorrectly understands Dharma and Adharma, and also what ought to be done and what ought not to be done- that intellect, O Arjuna, is Rajasic. -Gita, Ch.18, Verse 31. That which, enveloped in darkness, views Adharma as Dharma and all things perverted- that intellect, O Arjuna, is called Tamasic. -Gita Ch.18, Verse 32. Better is one’s own duty (Swadharma) though destitute of merits, than the duty of another well performed. He who does the duty ordained by his own nature incurs no sin. -Gita Ch.18, Verse 47. One should not abandon, O Arjuna, the duty to which one is born, though faulty; for, all undertakings are enveloped by evil, as fire by smoke. -Gita, Ch.18, Verse 48. O Arjuna, bound by thy own Karma (action) born of thy own nature, that which from delusion thou wishest not to do, even that thou shalt do helplessly. -Gita, Ch.18, Verse 60. =================
