About Us

With the aim of encouraging friendship, goodwill, respect, equality, understanding between Dharmic Faiths, having a common cultural background, developed in India, namely Buddhism, Hinduism, Jainism and Sikhism ( in association with Zoroastrianism) , on the basis of a shared cultural tradition, the participating faith leaders and organisations have agreed to cooperate in advancing the public knowledge of these Faiths and their communities in Britain including the understanding of their teachings, traditions and practices. To facilitate this aim the Council of Dharmic Faith shall be established for deliberating on the common interests of their communities, organisations, leaders and workers in the UK, creating a united voice for representing these to the authorities, for encouraging educational dialogue, for promotion of good relations with other faiths and communities, and for promoting Dharmic values within their communities and wider public.
