In the Acārāngasūtra non-violence and religion have been declared as one and the same.
"All animates (Prānī), all elements (bhūta), all beings (jiva) and all existants (sattā) should neither be killed, nor be ordered to be killed, nor be oppressed, nor be tortured, nor be disturbed with a view to killing. This religion (dharma) in the form of non-violence is pure' 12
