Abstract
In Hinduism there is an internal law that moves and guides all actions of a person which is “Dharma,” which literally means “to keep” or “maintain.” This law is sustained in itself by the practice of four virtues: love, truth, non-violence, and ethics. On the contrary, from a Christian perspective, the fundaments of social responsibility have the living image of a God converted into man through the figure of Christ Resurrected. The fundaments, the logic, and the consequences of social responsibility in both religions are different; nonetheless, in Hinduism the human being seems not to be able to escape a destiny established beforehand, while in Christianity there is always a possibility of a new start and a new opportunity to recognize God among us and, in such a manner, to be able to walk with Him; both religions wager on doing good and mutual assistance.
