 Śruti and Smriti which are society’s codes of ethics, "sadacara" which is good noble conduct accepted by society; and "svasya ca priyam atmanah" which is one’s own joy and pleasure, determine Dharma.The "sanatana dharma" is the eternal universal values to be followed by all people in life, and "varnasrama dharma" consists of specific duties given to each individual; Dharma means that holds everyone and everything together which leads to material prosperity and spiritual realization in this life itself.According to Manu, "Dhrti" is one of the ten values necessary for all people at all times that characterize Dharma.
