Foreword

Sanatana Dharma is the Eternal Wisdom or Order. Through millennia, India's culture was moulded by it. Its principles have a timeless relevance to humanity in general. In this work, Annie Besant and Bhagavan Das have drawn the principles of Sanatana Dharma from the vast, nebulous, scattered sources, and have presented them in an integrated, abridged form for students below the college level.

The wisdom of inspired Seers is recorded in various Samhitas, Sutras, Smrtis and other fragments. The corpus of all these is Sanatana Dharma, Eternal Order or Dharma. Through millennia, Hindu society was moulded by it.  Though necessarily Indian in garb, its principles have a timeless relevance to any society, anywhere, any time.
