What exactly is "Dharma"?

4 posts in this topic

I've heard it used in different contexts but it all seems to me to allude to "right action" or "divine action". In my awakenings I've had insight into my nature as "being the truth" in which my body and chakras all flowed without any resistance and in such a moment I literally was the "truth" and had the sense that this was my "right action" and my absolute right way of being - that I was in such a moment most myself? Am I correct in framing "Dharma" in this way? That it is when one becomes "truth" itself and surrenders totally to God instant to instant?

This is a great article about the concept of Dharma and aligning yourself with it.


“Did you ever say Yes to a single joy? O my friends, then you said Yes to all woe as well. All things are chained and entwined together, all things are in love; if ever you wanted one moment twice, if ever you said: ‘You please me, happiness! Abide, moment!’ then you wanted everything to return!” - Friedrich Nietzsche

In the context of speaking with very experienced Buddhists, Dharma usually refers more to the teachings and insight rather than action. 
 

Right action is a step in the noble eightfold path rather than the entirety of the dharma.
