Please read
DharmaVera readings are for entertainment and personal reflection. They are not religious instruction, and not medical, psychological, legal or financial advice. Please do not make important decisions based on a reading alone.
- DharmaVera draws on Burman, Chinese, Jewish, Christian, Islamic, Hindu and European traditions with respect. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by any religious organisation, and it does not speak for any faith.
- Every score is DharmaVera's own placement of a result on a common 1–10 scale. Scripture scores describe the reflection theme DharmaVera chose — never the worth of a sacred text.
- Some features, such as choosing a psalm by number, are DharmaVera reflection methods rather than traditional practices of that faith. Where this is the case, the reading says so.
The traditions behind each oracle
- Mahabote & Arudha Puzza — traditional Burman astrology and horary practice.
- Kau Cim (求籤) — the Chinese temple tradition of fortune sticks. The 100 verses and stories on this site are written for DharmaVera, retelling figures and legends from Chinese history.
- Tehillim (Psalms) — Hebrew text from the Masoretic Tanakh ("Tanach with Nikkud") and the English translation The Holy Scriptures: A New Translation (Jewish Publication Society, 1917), both in the public domain, obtained via Sefaria. Themes and interpretations are DharmaVera's.
- Japanese edition — the Japanese texts (including the modern Japanese rendering of the psalm verses and the Japanese sura names) are DharmaVera's translations. Bible book names follow the Meiji translation (明治元訳, 1880/1887, public domain).
- Bible and Quran — the site names the selected book, chapter or sura and gives DharmaVera's short reflection theme. No modern translation is reproduced.
- Ram Shalaka Prashnavali (राम शलाका प्रश्नावली) — the traditional 225-letter grid built from nine chaupais of the Shri Ramcharitmanas by Goswami Tulsidas (16th century, public domain). English meanings and transliterations are DharmaVera's.
- Gypsy Cards — a 55-card fortune-telling tradition. The card artwork and meanings are original to DharmaVera; DharmaVera is not affiliated with any playing-card publisher.
- Chinese zodiac, Western astrology and biorhythm — traditional and historical systems of self-reflection. Astronomy is approximate.
- Blood-type harmony — a Japanese popular tradition (ketsueki-gata). It has no scientific basis and is shown for fun. Giving your blood type is optional.
- 16 personality types — the four-letter types grow out of Carl Jung's theory of psychological types. DharmaVera's short quiz is an informal reflection aid, not an official assessment.
- Famous birthdays — publicly known birth dates, shown for interest only. No endorsement is implied.
