Sri Ramana often pointed out that for a yogi, Ahimsa (the state of non harming) is always the first principle to abide by. The notion of Ahimsa has deep meaning and is not a gimmick. Deep relaxation and peace cannot be obtained by enjoying victory over others. This is a spiritual and psychological truth. Those who win by taking things from others by force cannot help but harbor fear in their unconscious that the same can happen to them. Those who treat others with respect, amity, and love, and give freely of their gifts gradually purify their consciousness and become free of hatred and enmity. They are like deep valleys into whom the grace of the Divine pours forth. bold"> bold">Love to all bold">Harsha font-weight:bold"> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
