"Ahimsa means ""harmlessness,"" carried out in thought, word or deed. A major precept of Buddhists of all denominations is to practice harmlessness. Such activity is not supposed to be theory, but a practical fact, a sacred pledge (samaya) integrated into the fibre of one's every mode of conduct on the path to enlightenment and liberation from the samsara. However, as this text elaborates, all good intent along this line falls flat in the light of the practice condoned by many Buddhists of meat consumption. Harm is thus caused to the animal butchered, to the consumers of the flesh, and to the environment we all live in. It is also a decidedly gross act of adharma to all in the society wherein the Buddhist practitioner that consumes animal products resides, as clearly explained in this book. It is time that Buddhists whole-heartedly spurn all considerations of meat toxins in their bodily environments, to actively espouse the cause of true harmlessness in all that they do; and to act as Bodhisattvas by teaching all how to be compassionate through not killing or harming their animal brethren. The reasons are clear as to the way to be truly compassionate, as all Buddhists should be. Read, learn and observe your true motives in everything you do; desist from harmful actions, and thereby grow and become Bodhisattvas and Buddhas at the end of it all."

Ahimsa: In Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism, respect for all living things and avoidance of violence towards others. On a 32,000 km journey through six Asian countries over six months, Caroline, a journalist, and her husband David, a retired paramedic, become increasingly aware of animal welfare, poverty and what we are doing to the planet. They had no idea when they set off that they were going to end up vegan. Ahimsa is the story of their journey, meeting colourful characters and exploring many philosophical themes along the way. It is topical and questioning, in parts funny, sad and increasingly angry.

9/11 marked the beginning of a century that is defined by widespread violence. Every other day seems to be a furthering of the already catastrophic present towards a more disastrous tomorrow. With climate change looming over us, frequent economic instability, religious wars, and relentless political mayhem, life for what we have made of it seems more and more unsustainable. Douglas Allen insists that we look to Gandhi, if only selectively and creatively, in order to move towards a nonviolent and sustainable future. Is a Gandhi-informed swaraj technology, valuable but humanly limited, possible? What would a Gandhian world—a more egalitarian, interconnected, decentralized—of globalization look like? Focusing on key themes in Gandhi’s thinking such as violence and nonviolence, absolute truth and relative truth, ethical and spiritual living, and his critique of modernity, the book compels us to rethink our positions today.

Ahimsa is a way of relating to all life with complete empathy. Respect, loyalty, forgiveness, thoughtfulness, and understanding of right relationship in the light of ahimsa leads to speech which has no thorns and to thoughts and actions that do no harm. This unique anthology is essentially a psychological study that transcends our ordinary understanding of human nature. It brings to light that long-silent and long-hidden inner consciousness that depth psychologists, spiritual leaders, political figures, scientists, philosophers, environmentalists, animal rights advocates and nonviolence activists of all persuasions have sought to bring to our conscious awareness over the centuries.Featuring quotes from Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Jr., Peace Pilgrim, Dorothy Day, Joanna Macy, Thomas Merton, Albert Schweitzer and dozens of others, Ahimsa: Dynamic Compassion is both a testament to human possibility and an inspiring tool for change.

The teachings of Jainism are extremely simple and easy to follow but what is needed is an awareness about them. With a little effort the teachings can be incorporated and interwoven in the fabric of our daily life to make our life richer and fuller. Our fear-ridden world where terrorism and bloodshed has become an everyday and accepted occurrence needs the calmness that non-violence and adherence to ahimsa can bring. This collection of stories from Jainism aim at being interesting and thought provoking. • An elephant who tries to save a rabbit's life and dies. • Chandkaushik, a deadly snake who conquers his venomous side and attains liberation. • Meghrath, a just and righteous king who cuts off his own flesh, to honour his vow of protecting a hapless pigeon. • Sagarpot, a rich merchant who because of his greed and evil plan ends up killing his own son. • Hansa, a young boy who undergoes many tribulations but remains steadfast in his vow. • Simelo, a bald potter and a pot of gold. • Muni Metarya and the cruel goldsmith. • Mairavati, a young princess who exhibits fortitude and grace in difficult circumstances. • Jindatt and the power of selflessness. • Dhanasar, a hoarder of wealth who becomes poor. • Maynasundari and her leucodermic husband. • Madhubindu or the lust for pleasure. • Bharat and Bahubali, brothers turned foes. These beautifully illustrated stories would leave a lasting impression. It is a book that will be enjoyed by children as well as grown-ups.
