the updated, enlarged and revised edition has now been sponsored by the renowned Prakrit Bharati Academy, Jaipur. I am grateful to Shri D.R. Mehta, Chairman for his gracious offer, which would facilitate my book reaching a much wider circle of interested readers and thinkers.
The most crucial question confronting humanity today is how to surmount the vicious spread of violence, terrorism and non-peace, which has invaded the entire spectrum of universal life. The answer is a determined effort to establish the culture and practice of peace through non-violence at all layers of life and all segments of human endeavour. Jain philosophy provides the ethical content, thrust and direction which if followed would ensure that Ahimsa would be the ultimate winner.
I am dedicating this book to the generation of my grandchildren: Nayantara, Shantanu and Sameer. What we sow now, they will reap. Let us, therefore, for the sake of coming generations sow the seed of Ahimsa as a way of life.
