The people bringing Dharma to you

One passion binds us all — gratitude for our Dharmic foundation, and a yearning to share it. Together, this is a gathering of scholars, physicians, scientists, and builders devoted to that quest.

Why We Exist

Rooted in Dharma

The Indian diaspora in the United States has authored countless success stories. Why is this minority group so disproportionately and extraordinarily accomplished? In no small part, the answer lies in an attitude and its philosophical foundation — Dharma.

Dharma is a way of life: a lived reality rather than a studied one. That remains true in India, but this way of life cannot be organically carried across borders and imbibed by the next generation. For that, Dharma and Indic civilization must be deconstructed academically and repackaged in a way that speaks to people living outside the Dharmic lands.

Taking inspiration and guidance from the late Swami Dayananda Saraswati, the Dharma Civilization Foundation was founded by a group of highly accomplished individuals with this quest — and a genuine desire to freely share Indic wisdom with the world. A quintessentially Dharmic thing to do.
