[edit] Reliable sources for the term 'dharmic religions'?

Where are the reliable sources that use the term dharmic religions in the context of this article? "Dharmic religions" is a now deleted obscure neologism and should not be used throughout Wikipedia. a good alternative is Indian religions. The number of google scholar results for "Indian religions"+"Indian religion" is (45.600 + 84.200) while it is only (492+475) for "dharmic religions" +"dharmic religion".

Andries, you're preaching to the choir. :) When I wrote the article I used "Dharmic religions" for convenience. The context was "languages of Indian religions", so I've now used "Indic languages". -- Fullstop 20:51, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
