Christians believe in the Bible. Muslims believe in the Quran. Liberals believe in Liberty. Communists believe in Equality. Waht do Hindus believe in?
The answer to that question is "Dharma", but what does it mean to be Dharmic in this Liberal Kali Yuga that we live in? How do we recognize the roots of the problems we are faced with?

The answer to that question is "Dharma", but what does it mean to be Dharmic in this Liberal Kali Yuga that we live in? How do we recognize the roots of the problems we are faced with? How can we make sense of right from wrong? How can we tell the difference between us and them? How do we respond to the challenges that Western Modernity has thrown at us? How do we avoid cultural extinction at the intimate level? How do we approach these complex issues with our children?
The musings in this book aim to create an intellectual platform for Hindu parents who will then, hopefully, find the clarity and strength required to nourish self-aware Hindu children...children who will have the capacity for a self-respectful engagement with the modern world.

The answer to that question is "Dharma". Hindus believe in Dharma. But the answer to a further question "What is Dharma?" is not so simple.
Hinduism does not provide easy answers to Life's questions like many other cults and 'isms' that exist in the world today do. We embrace the entirety of this Gods given complexity and try to arrive at a fuzzy understanding of what it means to act in this world with integrity.
This complexity may appear daunting or even a waste of time to modern people who are used to quick fix solutions and high speed information exchange. But our failure to deal with complexity leads straight to all the problems that face the modern world today. This book tries to answer that second question for Hindu children (and their parents), not with a set of commandments but by using words and stories to draw a landscape that hopefully, feels like home.
