Practising Non-violence: Ahimsa (non-violence) does not mean merely not injuring a living being physically. You should not cause harm even by a word, a look or a gesture. Tolerance, fortitude, equanimity-these help you to practice a non-violence steadily.
Non-violence is another facet of truth. When once you are aware of the kinship of all beings, the fundamental divine unity and their oneness with God, you will not knowingly cause pain or distress to another.
we generally think that non-violence means not causing harm to any living being. Violence is not merely causing physical harm, even looking at debasing things, listening to evil or wrongful words and speaking harshly amount to voilence.
It all depends on one`s intention. Non-violence is ultimately a matter of intention and attitude, directed from the heart.
Perpetrating voilence on others is ultimately committing violence to oneself. We will definitely reap the consequences of our actions, whether in the present or future. Though the result may not be always apparent, every action evokes an inevitable reaction. Therefore, the best policy is to avoid harming others at all. As the biblical saying goes, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." So help ever, hurt never.- Sri Sathya Sai Baba.
