Four Pillars of Adharma

Four Pillars of Adharma

Behavior contrary to righteousness defined in Vedic Scriptures is called adharma. It is characterized by following four attributes

  • falsehood or asatya (असत्य | asatya )
  • violence or hinsa (हिंसा | hiṁsā )
  • lusty desires or trishna (तृष्णा | tr̥ṣṇā ) and
  • hatred or dvesh (द्वेष |​ dveṣa )

These are always present in the world, still the pervasiveness increases dramatically in Kaliyuga .
