Absolute Knowledge, Total Liberation,
Is Synonymous With Absolute Non-Violence
Ahimsa (Non-Violence) itself is religion and animsa is spiritual progress. The definition of Ahimsa is: to maintain the awareness of not hurting any living being even in the slightest degree, through your mind, speech and actions. When this principle remains firm in your conviction and awareness_then progress will occur in spirituality.
Non - Violence
Ahimsa

Violence exists everywhere in this world. The entire world is filled with violence. When you become truly non-violent, the world will cease to be violent for you. Without the authority of the force of non-violence, total liberation, defined as absolute knowledge (kevai gnan), is not possible. The level of awakened awareness necessary for absolute enlightenment is not possible to attain without total non-violence: non-violence in thoughts, speech and action.
Who will you direct your violence towards? All that is in front of you is The manifestation of the Lord within all living beings. They are all really the Supreme Lord. Who will you hurt?
