Dharamanava is a polytheistic folk religion found predominately within Eshnava and throughout western Arborea. The word Dharamanava is originated from Old Agra word, darham manavak meaning eternal living. It is widely accepted among historians to be oldest of the Eshnavic religions.
Dharamanava believes in the concept of darami, a universal order maintained by its followers through rituals and righteous living. It is divided into four religious denominations/movements: Laksalhasa, Samprapura, Haivanulai, and Barhamu. Adherents of Laksalhasa are the largest among the denominations and the official religious movement of the Kiradi Dynasty.
Dharam texts have been classified into Sugud (lit. 'beginning'), Tunga (lit. 'middle), and Lapus (lit. 'ending').
