Dharma is the Law that "upholds, supports or maintains the regulatory order of the universe", Dharma has the Sanskrit root dhri, which means "that without which nothing can stand" or "that which maintains the stability and harmony of the universe." Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism, and Sikhism all have the idea of dharma at their core, where it points to the purification and moral transformation of human beings. Dharma is not the same as Religion. Though differing in some particulars, all concur that the goal of human life is moksha or nirvana, in which the ultimate nature of dharma is apprehended experientially. In Buddhist philosophy, dhamma/dharma is also the term for "phenomenon". Wikipedia [ - ]
