"Dharma" धर्म, from the Sanskrit verbal root dhri or "D", which simply means "as it is to be".  Dharma, or Dhamma in Pali, 法 in Chinese, can be understood as "the truth as it is to be", "the knowledge of nature", "the cosmic law of nature", "the timeless science", etc.

Dharma To You Network (D2u.net) is dedicated to the principle that all knowledge are the manifestation of Dharma, which is to say every knowledge are some way related to the truth behind the infinite universe.

Since our universe appears to be infinite, any attempt to define its nature thru evident science will only results in arising complexity of unresolved questions, as in the process of composing theories, pre-defined language or mathematics are being redefined to contain into another limited definitions of the Truth, but the fact is that if the Truth is to be fully understood, it should be viewed from all possible positions of viewpoints, or dimensions, which the possibility is infinitely unlimited.  The fact that the Truth exist in an infinite dimensions, and that it can be fully understood only if its infinite dimensions are to be comprehended, and that we have not yet comprehend all the dimensions, nor have we travel to the end of, or surround the universe, is to remind us that our current science and knowledge is but only a little bit true and we have to realize that our current knowledge of physics and our current understanding of our own mind, is mostly untrue.

All truth is untrue, all untruths is true.  All knowledge is in someway untrue, and within all knowledge of the past or present, do contain some relations to the infinite truth.  The truth is true, not because we are to be benefited from the idea if it is true, nor because all of our qualified scientist or spiritual masters declare it to be true, nor because it has for the past thousand of years been universally accepted as true.

The truth is true, only if for the infinite past and the infinite future, and at this moment now, is eternally true.  For our past is a history, and if our future a destiny, the destiny of our future holds an unlimited possibilities.  Thus, the truth is true, only if it is temporary true, where the unlimited possibilities are temporary ignored.  The truth is temporary true, at the very moment when our mind are fully open to faithfully accept all the knowledge that leads to the evidence which prove it to be true.  The truth is temporary true, at the very moment when the calculation based on the variables of our past experience appear to be true to the memory of our pre-defined knowledge.

Ignorance is the inability to tolerate the fact that where our knowledge is to be absolutely true to us, it may be an absolute untruth to others who view it from different positions, from different cultures and from different dimensions.  Ignorance is the inability to liberate ourselves from our own limited knowledge which we wrongly regard as the only absolute truth.

Dharma is not knowledge.  Dharma is not science.  Dharma is not the secret to the origin of the universe.  Dharma is not that peace to be found within.  Dharma is not spiritual attainment thru any form of meditation.  Dharma is not realization, nor enlightenment of whatever kind.

Dharma is simply so... forgetting all of our past achievement, put aside all of our learned knowledge, and giving up all the destiny of enlightenment, at this very moment... accepting the truth as it is to be...

Dharma is... the Liberty of Knowledge!
