Dharma In You Kids

Every child carries a light. Stories help it grow.

Dharma In You Kids tells the timeless stories of Sanatan Dharma for today's children. Told gently, sourced carefully, and made for families wherever they live.

Our intention

We want children to grow up knowing the stories their grandparents knew, and to find in them what makes a good life: courage, kindness, curiosity, patience and love.

We are not here to lecture. We tell each story as well as we can, stay close to its source, and trust children and families to find the meaning together, at bedtime, in the car, or curled up on a Sunday afternoon.

What we believe

Dharma is already within every child

Our name says it: Dharma In You. We are not pouring goodness into children. We tell stories that help them recognise the goodness that is already there.

A story teaches what a lecture cannot

Children remember the princess who crossed time long after they forget a rule. A value that arrives inside a story tends to stay.

Faithful to the source, honest about the retelling

Every book names the texts it draws from and tells you which scenes and words we added. Wonder never needs us to blur the two.

Every child is welcome

Whether a child is growing up near a temple in Kathmandu or on a terraced street in London, hearing these stories for the hundredth time or the first, there is a place for them here.

Why it matters more than ever

Families live far apart

Many children are growing up far from their grandparents and from the places these stories come from. The bedtime telling that once happened naturally now needs a little help.

In Revati, it is Hajurama in London who passes the story on.

Attention is precious

Screens are part of childhood now. If some of that time is spent watching or reading, we want it to carry something worth keeping.

Big questions need big stories

Children ask about time, fairness, loss and belonging. These stories have been helping families talk about those questions for centuries.

Light the lotus

Six qualities shine through Revati's story. Choose a star to see the moment it appears, then ask its question together tonight.

No lights lit yet. Choose any star to begin.

The whole lotus is lit. Every one of these lights is already in your child.

Choose a star

Each star opens a moment from Revati's story, a question to talk about together, and the place to watch it.

Why we use modern tools

Illustration and voice tools let a small team do what once needed a whole studio: a 40-page, full-colour book and a full-cast audio story that families anywhere can watch for free.

Illustrated and voiced with AI tools. Written and checked by people.

The tools help us create. They do not decide what is true. We say plainly where AI was used, and we welcome corrections.
