The Principle of Dharma (Dharma-tattva) is a major philosophical work of Bankimchandra Chattopadhyay. Dharma, according to him, is harmonious cultivation of all inherent faculties and their ultimate transformation to whole-hearted devotion to God and humanism. He has reasoned out his views through a catechetic method that lends clarity to his philosophical perceptions.This is the time the work is translated into English from the original Bengali text.
