Kathryn,
Some good stuff here! I really like what you have to say about the parallels between the idea of Dharma and the Ten Commandments, I had never thought of that before! One interesting difference I see, however, is the idea that the Ten Commandments are rules that dictate our way of life in a way that will make us live a holy existence, while Dharma seems to me to be that idea of a holy existence itself. So Dharma seems more to be the direct result of the Ten Commandments as opposed to the Ten Commandments themselves.
