"...We are not preaching any new reli gion. We are preaching the religion which occurred at the time of Creation, and that is the Santan Dha rma - the Eternal Rel igion. Sanatan Dharma is the Arya Dharama
We can determine the date from which every reli gion started. For example, the Muslim relig ion was started by Mohammed 1400 years ago and this is recorded in their scriptures. Christianity started with the birth of Christ, 2000 years ago. Judaism began with Abraham in 1900 BC or you can say with Moses in 1200 BC. Before Abraham, Moses, Christ and Mohammed existed, the world and its peoples were living. The Arya Dha rma has been followed for thousands and millions of years and no one is able to trace the date it began. Some time back West said it is from 2000 BC now the same West says it is from 9,000 BC. Wait after couple of years West will say its from 20,000 BC and so on.
According to the scriptural description of the brahmand particularly the area of the continent that lies south of the Himalayas is called Bharatvarsh. It is also called Aryavart. The inhabitants of Aryavart are called the Aryans as referred to in the Rigved. Thus, the words Bhartiya or Aryans were both used for the inhabitants of Bharatvarsh or Aryavart, however, the words Bhartiya and Bharatvarsh were more popular. Also in description we find that all world is mentioned as Bhartvarsh but that is only for the primal period as at the time continent plates were not separated. This is the reason we are finding Sanskrit Shaloks written in Grand Canyon, USA. Sanskrit scriptures in Australia. All this is written in Aryan scriptures. If some one wants to find the truth then he should have faith in Aryan (Sanatan) Scriptures and he will be guided to the ultimate truth.
You may try to understand this spontaneous religion this way: The dha rma (law or nature) of fire is to burn; the dhar ma of water is to be wet; the air has to blow. Can one tell on what day the fire started to burn, the water to be wet, and the air to blow? No one can say.
Arya D harma is like a great ocean. From that ocean, each country has dug canals according to their needs and purposes. But canals cannot give total satisfaction as the ocean gives complete bliss. The Lord is showing a vision of the San atan Dharm a, which is like the great ocean, and this is the greatest form of knowledge... "
