- Sanātanī (सनातनी) is a term used to describe Hindu duties that incorporate teachings from The Vedas, The Upanishads, and other Hindu religious texts and scriptures such as The Ramayana and The Bhagavad Gita, which itself is often described as a concise guide to Hindu philosophy and a practical, self-contained guide to life. The word sanatani is coined from Sanātana Dharma (Sanskrit: सनातन धर्म, lit. ''the Eternal Dharma'') which refers to the idea that its origins lie beyond human history, as revealed in the Hindu texts. A Sanatani performs duties according to one's spiritual (constitutional) identity as atman (Self) and thus these duties are the same for everyone. General duties include virtues such as honesty, refraining from injuring living beings, purity, goodwill, mercy, patience, forbearance, self-restraint, generosity, and asceticism.In other words, any follower of Sanātana Dharma (Hinduism) irrespective of their varna, Hindu denominations or choice of god/s, can be considered a Sanatani.
