[Jitendra Hydonus]

Dharma means “those immutable principles of self-discipline and write action that protect man permanently from the threefold suffering of physical disease, mental unhappiness and spiritual ignorance.” The discovery and application of these principles, which is the purpose of religion, have not yet been considered seriously by western scientist as a subject for a lifelong research and practical scientific study. Yet such a study would reveal the origin and purpose of human life on earth. In India great yogis have discovered through their religious experimentation the practical means of destroying by the roots the three - - fold suffering of man- - body, mind, and soul - - so that there is no possibility of recurrence.
