India’s judicial system, still anchored in colonial frameworks, often appears disconnected from the spirit of Dharma when adjudicating on matters of faith, family, and tradition. Judges with little understanding of Hindu philosophy or scriptures frequently issue rulings on matters of Dharma. From casual remarks on our deities to misguided interpretations of temple customs, such decisions reveal a deep cultural disconnect. It’s time to restore balance by establishing Dharmic courts, grounded in our own civilizational wisdom and moral vision, to decide on matters of Dharma, culture and family.

Stree Dharma & Why the Bharatiya Naari is Revered
By: Rati Hegde
Hindu Dharma envisions men and women as two halves of a whole, each essential in fulfilling the four Purusharthas, Dharma, Artha, Kama, Moksha. A wife is not a bystander but a Sahayogi, without whom even Yajnas lose their merit. While our Shastras elevate a virtuous Bharatiya Naari to the same position of reverence as a Teertha, they also bind men with strict codes of Dharma. Together, such men and women uphold a society rooted in balance, respect, and true Shakti that arises out of virtuous living.
