This is how I describe dharma in short: dharma is the sustenance of all things that are born or created. It is the super-nature that gives valences to atoms in an element. It is dharma that is expressed as the quality of these elements. For instance, gold has a quality that it is untarnishable.

The human beings are like perfected instruments, like computers. Of course, if their dharma is in balance, they are the best receptors. You can understand that the divine awareness is like the main electrical current which starts the computer. If the dharma in the instrument is lacking, Self-realization does not give full results. It becomes like a second-hand car.

Dharma is the fulcrum and the one who is in dharma never gets into imbalance. So the attention has to be on dharma, the point where the gravity of sin does not act.
