Non Violence
Non Violence begins with the self in one's own thoughts, language, actions and positive way of life. Compassion is guiding force. Non violence is heart of all religions vrata and virtues. Creative art is not only drinking, boiling or not eating at night or being vegan or vegetarian or performing vituals blindly without knowing it's meaning but is conflict inside our mind, thought and action. It is love and love is creative, hatred is destroyer. It is not talking of world peace and creating missiles on other side. Non-violence is universal concept around which almost all religions have developed variety of ideas useful to humanity. By being non-violent you are not obliging others but you are stopping yourself from going against nature. Every action affects our surrounding as well as yourself our own feelings & sentiments. Non violence is pacifism every crusade revolution, civil wars are violence and immoral.
Untouchability, non-co-operation, corruption, exploitation, child abuse, slavery, degradation of women, aggression towards child by parents or teachers, suppressing weak or poor people showing muscle power, money power or your position of chair is social violence & is misuse of your power for which Jainism has given doctrines of vegetarianism, celibacy, non possession, truth telling, non-stealing & parasparograh jivanam for eco-friendly view, all includes non-violence. Non-possession makes man tolerant, accomodative, so society can sustain & we can live together with compassion.
To be non violent, being non-possessive is essential. Breaking is easy, even child can do it, but joining or creating is difficult. Taking life is easy in anger but giving life is impossible. You can prevent it by replacing greed with contentment, hate with tolerance, killing with reverance for life.
Violence grows with acquisitiveness. Economic systems are based on promoting wants rather than curbing them is having disastrous results.
All micro.or mini breathing existing, living being whatever should not be strained, treated with violence, insutted, tortured or driven away ill-treated since no-body wants to be hurt or killed. If you can't give life you can't take it..
Cruelty and killing of even small creatures brutalises a man. So wants should be minimised and no grabbing at any level.
Syadvad and anekant vada teaches even opponent may be right. If one acquires this attitude, one will be tolerant. Life moves on. People come and go. Events takes place, thoughts ideas intersect, previous understanding. My depression, anxiety shadow achievements, rewards
