SANATANA DHARMA means the Eternal Religion, the Ancient Law, and it is based on the Vedas, sacred books given to men many long ages ago. This Religion has also been called the Aryan Religion, because it is the Religion that was given to the first nation of the Aryan race ; Arya means noble, and the name was given to a great race, much finer in character and appearance than the races which went before it in the world's historv.
The first families of these people settled in the northern part of the land now called India, and
that part in which they first settled was named Aryavarta, because these Aryans lived in it. "(The land) from the eastern ocean to the western ocean,
between the two mountains (Himavan and Vindhya),
the wise call Aryavarta."

SANATAN is not a religion to be followed or a bundle of mythological facts, but spiritual science that guides us throughout life and helps us understand reality in true ways.
