As the word denotes, Sanatana in Hinduism stood for everlasting, something existing from times immemorial. Definition of Dharma as dictated to me by God… “Dharma” … “Your right to do what is just and right and not what was destined”.
Dharma was inherent in all living beings including human beings right from inception. When no religion existed on mother earth, existed Dharma within all living beings.
Something existing from times immemorial and was inherent in all living beings was Sanatana Dharma. The philosophy surrounding Sanatana Dharma evolved in India (erstwhile Bharatvarsha). The root of all spiritual teachings contained in Vedas, Upanishads and Bhagavad Gita was Sanatana Dharma. Hinduism must rightly be termed Sanatana Dharma as in earlier times.
It is following Dharma mankind and lower forms of life lived in harmony, even in absence of a religion (in case of human beings).
