Word Highlight: The word “religion”
I’m sure many of our readers have heard sentences like “Sanatana Dharma is not a religion, it is a way of life” and so on and so forth. Our view is similar to Ghor Angirasa’s view below: That the word “Religion” to describe Hinduism/Sanatana Dharma is a useful term that allows Hindus to have the same respect in non-Hindu states as any other religion, putting it above the level of various superstitions and dead pagan faiths.
Aesthetic: Maharashtra Temple
