Abstract

In the languages of the Indian subcontinent no term exists that exactly corresponds to the use of the word 'religion' in the western languages. What does exist is a series of words that, at the time of translating, serve to express certain shades of the concept at issue. This paper studies the cultural and semantic implications of the translation of 'religion' by the term dharma in Indian languages.
