Ahimsa (Nonviolence) is listed as the highest principle among all others in the ancient Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras of Maharishi Patanajali.
Indeed, it is the universal declaration of sages in all spiritual traditions that one should not harm other living beings as the same life energy permeates everyone.
All beings love life, want to be happy, and thrive. According to the law of karma, what one gives to others, one gets as well. Therefore, the secret to happiness is simply to support others in finding their joy.

Years ago in Manhattan I could not sleep…so I watched a documentary on the life of Joseph Campbell…and was struck by his advice: FOLLOW YOUR BLISS!!! That single quote helped me to break free of my samsaric chains and to fly to the Himalayas where my inner quest took off…it wasn’t easy, but looking back, wow. Today following my own bliss is not enough….all we learn is of little use is we cannot share it with all those who are willing to learn…and of course this process is mutual. To love our own self is to learn to love others as our self. The Golden Rule. Thank you, Harsh Luthar, for reminding us that this is our REAL work here on Planet Earth!
