Wild Dharma

The word Dharma comes from the Sanskrit Dhṛ (meaning to hold and sustain), referring to the way of being, or more precisely the way of inter-being. Dharma is the way, the way of being, living and acting in authenticity, with responsive and responsible agency that is true to one's original nature, responsibilities, and the evolutionary order of reality. Reality is the four forces of physics, evolution, and the continuity of the cosmos and that which precedes and antedates it — as the natural law. Original nature is free, wise, compassionate, connected, aligned, authentic, profoundly kind and life-generous. Dharma can also manifest as the innate justice of karma, the responsive result and consequence of action and reciprocity, and whilst Dharma can also be understood as belief, it needs no belief and no dogma. Dharma is often understood as morality and duty, and it certainly manifests in this way at times, and in certain contexts, yet it is far from this alone. Dharma also transcends ossification into ritual, dogma, and all attempts to control it. Dharma transcends and dissolves dogma, ritual, and control in an infinite renewal of scintillating, spontaneous presence as inter-being, right relationship and heartfelt, awakened living alignment. Where Dharma* is lived, honoured and felt in each and every moment, then evolving and vibrant coherence, and community wellbeing naturally occurs. Dharma is felt at the nameless intersection, the 'infinite heart space' between wisdom & compassion, chaos & order, yin & yang, belief & reality, crisis & opportunity, rights & responsibilities, nihilism & eternalism, monism & dualism, and all polarity.

*Dharma and The Tao are synonymous.
