the word hindu is just derived from mispronounciation of the name of the reverse
sindhu and someone called mispronounced maybe the hindus were responsible because if you come from
the habit of replacing the son with her pronunciation so the first we are the culprits
so the word hindu became displaced as hindu fair enough then we go to the name saying people living
across here are hindus and their tradition is called hinduism this is how we acquire
the global hinduism there is no substantial root to it apart from the word so people say
this is terrible and a lot of people say no you must use your dharma dharma that'd be very frank
i'm not that walked up about it like tell me i'll tell you why my real name is jay prakash such a
long name with long tail that is very heavy-handed so people in my home mr started calling me dirty
and i got stuck with that name the people most of the people that know me personally call me
they live so now do is how dare you call me jaya prakash i smile i required a pet name and
that i'm smiling and say okay i'm stuck with it and in the schools all the children get the pet
names and some of the very naughty rude names but then you have to live with this smile and
go through it so i'm not saying get walked about wow no how dare you must use the word
i said look i understand that real definition of our tradition is not even is dharma it's a
very powerful definition it underpins not only hinduism but hinduism buddhism jainism and cities
and they all use our dharma to the tradition the main name they give to the tradition is dharma
in buddhism they call it dharma but the same thing dharma so what is the thermal business this is a
beautiful part to explore hinduism which has that never acquired so smile and live with it don't get
worked up about it but then when they say oh no what is this dharma dharma means what is it that's
holding everything together this idea of dhara what is what is that out of which everything is
manufactured the diversity we experience different living things you know human don't you know
animals insects or the material world that we encounter what is underpinning everything
normally that what are the faculties we possess the emotions the drives the intellect we possess
the mind you possess what is everything what do we want out of it everything we manufacture material
as well as mental and intellectual what is that that was the search so whenever we say unity in
diversity what is that one after which everything is manufactured in fact one of the open issues is
what is that by knowing which i know everything see this is the this is the search of dharma
see this is a beautiful thing so the word dharma means making sense of what the world that we're
living what is the nature of reality who they care about what is my true nature
and that is the real meaning of the word in another word is people sometimes say what is salah
sanatana said we want to find a resolution to our human condition make sense of our human condition
what is the nature of reality what is my true nature in a manner which is not just temporary fed
fashion it's not fashionable to say dharma means this it must have this kind of eternal
and universal aspect otherwise it is not recessive temporary fair their fashion
statement so dharma says sanatana says something that is not just temporary fair
fashionable word so what is sanatana what is this the nature of reality on a long-term basis
which and also it is true universally not just indian subcontinent throughout the universe
