@DheerajVerma Your question is unclear, what do you mean by "is Dharma my karma?" Explain what is Dharma here. – The Destroyer Feb 07 '18 at 06:06

I am surprised. Don't you have a Dharma? If I ask you what is your Dharma what will be your answer ? I am talking about same Dharma. – Dheeraj Verma Feb 07 '18 at 06:14

Yes lord krishna himself said you have right to do karma not on its fruit —(read my answer here) https://hinduism.stackexchange.com/questions/23971/what-are-the-characteristics-of-a-human-being/23978#23978 even he can not change one's karmas originally. l do not believe caste,etc vedas specially rigveda and samaveda say duties for people all people not for caste etc. :) so above given link has answer to your question. – Fierce lord Feb 07 '18 at 10:58

That answer is unsatisfactory. Is every karma my Dharma ? Suppose I intend to steal then is it my Dharma to steal ? – Dheeraj Verma Feb 07 '18 at 11:20

@Dheeraj Verma karma is action good karma makes a man gain virtue while bad karmas make him down now dharma is apart from karma, action that upholds dharma is called is called good karma or dharmic karma and if bad then adharma above all is nishkama karma karma done without any desire and not taking intrests in its fruit and giving it in holy feet of god. – Fierce lord Feb 07 '18 at 15:35
