FAQs
Dharma is context-sensitive: the same category (food) can be prohibited generally yet permitted in a ritual frame (śrāddha) where intention, sanctification, and social duty (honoring brāhmaṇas and pitṛs) are central.
This is ritual-ethical instruction (ācāra) rather than cosmological genealogy; it sits outside the core pañcalakṣaṇa headings.
The ‘remnant’ (śeṣa) principle encodes sacralization: what is first offered becomes transformed in meaning, suggesting that intention and consecration can alter the ethical valence of consumption.
