On Dharmawiki we strive to make reading delightful by simplifying the concepts while making it easy on the eyes along. Audio clips and videos make it easier for those who prefer listening to reading (for example while driving). Hence we add images and flowcharts to break the monotonous stretch of reading content. Concepts are captured into tables and flowcharts.

Unique to Dharmawiki, we strive to take Samskrit to the masses as well as the scholars.
