Whenever the words “devotees of ahinsa' are heard or
read one would invariably think of Jains. Really the non-violence of Jains is worth appreciating.
However, for some time now it appears that Jains want to spread the empire of non-violence using their
influence. It may be a good thing to observe non-violence, but it would be something like a crime to impose non
violence on others. . A person living in a secular State and amongst a cosmopolitan crowd must learn to control his love for
his religion. How can anyone reconcile with the spread of
intolerance in the name of religion?
