Ahimsa

What is the last thing you learned?

Ahimsa (non-violence) is widely considered a potent, active solution to modern global crises, offering a path to peace, social harmony, and environmental sustainability. Far from passive, it is a “soul force” that fosters dialogue over conflict, addressing issues like war, terrorism, and inequality.

Iran one of the world’s largest oil producers is being attacked by the US and Israel, while the country itself has retaliated with attacks across the Middle East. Global Witness stands with the UN and other voices calling for an immediate ceasefire from both sides.

The conflict comes after months of US military build-up in the region and repeated failed negotiations between the US and Iran over Tehran’s nuclear programme.

Today, in the age of the atomic and hydrogen bombs, a battle for supremacy is raging. Any development, research or invention should be for the benefit of humanity, not for the destruction of the world. The concept of nonviolence teaches us that the path to peace lies through dialogue, the restoration of democracy and active & strict adherence to UN laws.
