Mess

What a mess, after the Sanātan Dhrama page was created. See also Talk:Sanātan Dharma. I've moved the Sanātan Dharma on Sanatana Dharma to this page - back to where it was a long time ago. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 19:45, 5 July 2021 (UTC) −−−−−−−−−−−−−− Many theory found via vedas it says it is the only 1 relegion that created by god. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.124.15.170 (talk) 17:16, 25 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

First correct the spelling of religion. Harish infinity (talk) 16:37, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Edit war over Dharmic Religions

There is an on-going edit-war over whether this subject refers to Dharmic Religions in whole including Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism which have Dharma as key concept. The edit war must stop.

While I restored the content, I have no opinion on including it. I thought I was reverting simple vandalism that had removed what appeared to be a cited statement. Please discuss here and come to a consensus before restoring or removing that content again. Toddst1 (talk) 20:05, 30 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The sources are not WP:RS, c.q. misrepresented (Business Standard: For long, Hindu society has looked upon these three religious groups as their own. From theologians to laymen, the refrain that is commonly heard is: They (Sikhs, Jains and Buddhists) are part of Sanatana Dharma. Nothing could be farther from the truth.) and the contested text does not summarize the content of the article; see also this sentence from the body of the article: "Today, Sanatana Dharma is associated only with Hinduism." The suggestion that Sanathana Dharma includes Buddhism and Jainism is typical for Hindu nationalists, as is the term "Dharmic religions." It started with this edit by a user who's blocked now, as are a number of accounts who restored this info. Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 04:40, 31 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not a alternative of Hinduism

Sanatana dharma is different from Hinduism. Hinduism include everyone who consider themselves Hindus whether they are religious/dharmic or adharmic/irreligious who use hindu as a geographical or cultural identity. Meanwhile Samajists like Arya samaj and brahmo samaj are rival of sanatanis who separated themselves from sanatan dharm. They all were united under the umbrella term Hinduism. There are non-sanatani Tribals also who are part of sanatana dharma. Traditionalist or some orthodox religious hindus call their religion as sanatan dharm and they are in large numbers but it doesn't mean sanatan dharm is Hinduism. Hinduism is a totally different concept and identity. Mr.nothing anonymous (talk) 16:50, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
