Ahimsa, a technique suggested in Yama.
Yama are
the restraints. They support in refraining from unhealthy habits and
tendencies that are detrimental in our day to day life.
Ahimsa means Non-violence.
Practice of Ahimsa is not just refraining from physical violence or abuse; that could be a way of civilized social conduct. Beyond this, Ahimsa addresses
health of the mind. Criticism, sarcasm, cynicism, backbiting, offensive
language, comparison could be verbal forms of not practicing Ahimsa.
Further even the body gestures of denial and disregard have to be
monitored for all these are expressions of unhealthy mind. It can only
lead to unhappy relations and disturbance. It needs no effort to harm,
its instant and handy.
If you have not practiced Ahimsa as suggested here; you will notice, that the Himsa or violence indulged in, is having its effect. It could be disturbing, agitating, and causing insecurity, thus leading to much deeper impact on physical and mental health.
