FAQs

Dharma includes reverence (for gurus) and sacred intentionality: enjoyment divorced from higher duty, paired with disrespect to teachers, signals moral decline.

Bharata continues to denounce the counselor of exile, invoking social-religious markers of adharma: irreverent consumption and contempt for elders.

Respect for tradition and teachers—Bharata frames guru-disrespect as a serious ethical failure.
