“Ahimsa
is a virtue of the soul. Developing it is absolutely fundamental to
spiritual realization. Only when you awaken ahimsa in yourself will you
truly participate in the eradication of violence in society as a whole.
The first step is to understand that the external is a reflection of the
internal—that the violence manifesting in the world around you is a
product of the violence inside of you."
Sri Prem Baba
