What Is Sanatana Dharma?
Sanatana Dharma is the belief system that encourages us all to engage in such actions, thoughts and practices that promote physical and mental happiness in the world, and ensure GOD realisation in the end.
Sanatana Dharma assumes that we should perform all kinds of good deeds and philanthropic works that are beneficial to society, with satvic motivation (i.e. having full faith in GOD and doing all the good karmas only to please GOD, and not for any kind of personal gain).
The Rig Veda (the first scripture of Sanatana Dharma and indeed of all mankind) declares – “Ekam Sat Vipraa Bahudhaa Vadanti”. This means that the ultimate Truth (i.e. GOD) is One, but the wise know him by different names and in different forms. This illustrates the principle that we believe in one God only, and that what appear to be many gods and goddesses are actually different representations of one God.
Our current officiating Pandit (Hindu Priest) is Pandit Hamesh. We are also blessed to have the unstinting support of Pandit Bish, Pandit Hari and Pandit Satish (our previous Pandits).
