Dharma & Dilemma: Resolving Dharma Sankata

Everyone has conflicts as part of their lives. Quite often we resolve these conflicts well. However, there are few conflicts – that are tricky and difficult. We can call these as ‘dharma sankata’. These few become difficult to resolve because we may not have a framework or guidelines. It gets more complicated when people are forcibly isolated from their traditional family support base to distant places due to work or other reasons.

In this talk, Rajesh ji will share through stories about the various conflicts that people go through in their life and how they think incorrectly at times to resolve them.

He will also explain the easy way out most of the Hindu people take, consequently falling prey to extreme ideologies like Wokeism, radical proselytization and how they start seeing no value in the Sanatana Dharma.

Finally he will also explain the well-tested age old framework of Dharma to resolve conflicts. While the word ‘dharma’ may be elusive, even thinking through from the first principles about how it will apply helps reduce the stress of decision making in a conflicting, endless choice-driven world.
