Dharma & Religion

Er. Vinod Verma
Dharma & Religion are two different aspects which always have been misappropriated and misunderstood by the society and by our so-called religious leaders. People are spoon-fed by the concept these leaders derive that suit to their selfish motives.
”Dharma is ”Art of Living” & Religion is discipline”. The created confusion between the two has led to the degradation of moral values and a person’s duty as an human being. Religion has always been exploited rather than being explored. Human beings are everywhere human and hold the same deepest values. Religion is your personal identification but Dharma is your doings in positive & right direction. Dharma’s Teachings are the basic Insights of Education for ”True Living”. A true Dharma is to live collectively with real sense of  responsibility. The ethics of Dharma are not  of separation but a way of life for peaceful co-existence. ”Faith without Works is Empty.” The religious mind is free from all sorts of prejudices, traditions & all sense of directions.
The Religious division in the Social Fabric has been constituted and fabricated to encourage their selfish ends of political set-ups while Dharma discourages the separations & all Isms in the society. Present day religion has become a tool for the so-called religious /political leaders; Not leaders but more of dealers who are encashing the weakness of God-fearing common man.
The path of Dharma leads to peace but ”peace is much too fragile to be entrusted to Politicians & these so-called Spiritual / Religious leaders, who no doubt preach brotherhood but don’t even try to remove the parasite of division. It is a big challenge to the society to eradicate this root cause and I doubt if any body can stand firmly to accept this challenge. There is no implementation of true Dharma which teaches nothing but laws of humanities”. Instead sentiments of common man are exploited. No change is expected unless all- together a new world is created which inculcates the real sense of Dharma into the minds of people at the very beginning of ”sanskar formation”.

Religion is ‘Gyaan’ & Dharma is ‘Vigyaan’. Dharma is not the religion of routine which we adopt as a matter of habit. It is the aspiration of every human soul which is built by one’s life blood. We have understood the sense of religious purpose through different conversations conducted time to time. The threat to our society can only be met at deeper levels of consciousness. The intellectuals must become aware of their movement to build a universal society, free & democratic based on true dharma (Preciousness of human being). It is in our power to end the fear which afflict humanity & develop a faith that is antidote to fear.
It is our foremost duty & responsibility to diagnose the cause for carried over confusion & chaos between Dharma & Religion in the social fabric to live a ”True Dharma Life” in effective direction.
