What is a Dharma?
DharmaFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaThe Sanskrit term Dharma (help·info) (Devanāgarī: धर्म) (Pali: Dhamma) signifies the underlying order in nature and life (human or other) considered to be in accord with that order. The word Dharma literally means 'that which upholds or supports' (from the root 'Dhr' - to hold), here referring to the order which makes the cosmos and the harmonious complexity of the natural world possible. The concept of dharma has been central to Indian civilization where it governs ideas about the proper conduct of living. So central is it, indeed, that the symbol of the dharma - the wheel - takes central place in the national flag of India. In its most frequent usage (in the sphere of morality and ethics) dharma means 'right way of living', 'proper conduct', 'duty' or 'righteousness'. With respect to spirituality, dharma might be considered the Way of the Higher Truths. What is in the West called religion in India comes within the general purview of dharma. Thus the various Indian religions (sanatana dharma, Buddhadharma, Jain dharma etc.) are so many versions of Dharma - versions of what is considered to be 'right' or in truest accord with the deepest realities of nature.

What makes a good Hindu and why?
This answer to this varies based on the individual. For a person of the Hindu faith, how closely you adhere to the Dharma, or universal law of things, is what accumulates good or bad Karma. The Dharma includes basic values, morals and ethics that are pretty universal like not stealing, not killing, honesty, compassion, modesty, and non violence. There are some people of the Hindu faith that will deprive themselves of any pleasure or try to remain completely non violent to other life forms (even insects), in an attempt to adhere as closely to the Dharma as possible, thus accumulating what they feel is good Karma. However, each person has a different idea to what the Dharma is for them. For many, it is based on their station in life. For instance, if someone is a worker, than being the best possible worker would be following the Dharma. If someone is a leader, being the best possible leader would be following the Dharma. For some, it is worshipping a particular God that is part of the Dharma. Many people of the Hindu faith put a lot of effort into discovering what the Dharma is for them. A lot of time spent meditating and participating in various forms of Yoga are how a person of the Hindu faith discovers what is needed for them to follow the Dharma and how they practice what they have learned.
The word Dharma literally translated means what?
