Dharma is immutable. Dharma
persists as dharma then, now, and forever. Of course, the practices and rules of applied dharma might change ac-
cording to changing causes; but even then, the practices have to be tested on the basis of the scriptures (sastras),
not on the basis of advantage.

Education is necessary for both men and women. But education for women has to be in accordance with
their special needs. Educated women are really the promoters of dharma for the whole world.

People refer to various duties, rights, and obligations, but these are not the basic dharmic truth; they are only means and methods of regulating the complications of living. They are not fundamental.

Dharma is the moral path; the moral path is the light; the light is bliss. Dharma is characterized by
holiness, peace, truth, and fortitude.

Dharma cannot be restricted to any particular society or nation, for it is closely bound with the fortunes of the
entire living world. It is a flame of light that can never be extinguished. It is untrammelled in its beneficent
action.

People must dedicate themselves to dharma and always be engaged in dharma, so that they may live in peace
and the world may enjoy peace. Dharma is the foundation for the welfare of humanity; it is the truth that
is stable for all time.
