| While Sanatana Dharma Rshi Parampara promulgated शान्तिः ॥ Shanti or peace for the वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम् ॥ vasudaiva kutumbakam, at present our global society is व्याधिग्रस्थ वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम् ॥ vyadhigrastha vasudaiva kutumbakam, meaning a 'diseased global family'. The society is stricken with countless evils (both in thought and deed) which translate into the diseases of the Humanity primarily due to loss of Purushartha Drsthi. Individually the diseased state stems from the Mind or Manas, which can be corrected by re-sensitizing the peoples of the world to the dharmika paths given by our seers to live a peaceful life leading ultimately to Moksha. | | While Sanatana Dharma Rshi Parampara promulgated शान्तिः ॥ Shanti or peace for the वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम् ॥ vasudaiva kutumbakam, at present our global society is व्याधिग्रस्थ वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम् ॥ vyadhigrastha vasudaiva kutumbakam, meaning a 'diseased global family'.

− | Dedicated to the future generations, Dharmawiki invites one and all to come together for building narratives based on Sanatana Dharma from the perspective of dharma. Together, we shall bring back the sashastriya samalochana paddati (shashtra based thinking process) to replace a rational instead of the existing polarized thinking. Our tradition is our adhikara and it is our duty to build our narratives ourselves. We are content creators, no longer content consumers. {{Infobox | + | Dedicated to the future generations, Dharmawiki invites one and all to come together for building narratives based on Sanatana Dharma from the perspective of dharma.
