 The concept of [[Dharma (धर्मः)|Dharma]] in the [[Bharatavarsha (भरतवर्षम्)|Bharata's]] conscious is far-reaching and deep. It addresses duties and responsibilities both at the micro (personal) as well as macro (societal) level. Shabdakalpadruma says,

 Therefore, Dharma is not just that which is upheld as a virtue in life, it is also the principle on the foundation of which a society stands.
