Dharma and Jnana (Right conduct and spiritual wisdom) are two eyes given to man to discover his uniqueness and his divinity. Dharma indicates right path which every individual, group or society should follow. Dharma destroys the one who violates it. Dharma protects the one who protects it. Scriptures have declared, “Where there is Dharma there is Victory”. There is no Dharma greater than Truth. The edifice of Dharma is erected on the foundation of Truth. Nyaya (justice) is an essential attribute of Dharma. A society or nation or an individual shines with glory only when they adhere to justice. Just as one acquires wealth by pursuit of agriculture, business or profession, one must acquire merit and divine grace by adhering to neeti (morality) and Dharma. However, Dharma alone is not enough. While Dharma leads to right action, it is necessary to acquire wisdom (Jnana). True knowledge consists in understanding the unity that underlies the cosmos. All sufferings and problems in life arise from the sense of duality. Once the feeling of ‘I’ and ‘mine’ is got rid of, the consciousness of all-pervading Divinity will be realised! – Divine Discourse, Jan 19, 1984
