FAQs

The emphasis here is primarily ethical-karma based: steadfast good conduct (sukarma), rejection of wrong behavior, and adherence to the righteous path.
Sustained virtue matters: results mature through continual good action, self-restraint from contradictory conduct, and commitment to a principled way of life.
