What is the concept of Ahimsa? 🔺The concept of Ahimsa is an ancient Indian principle of non-violence, non-injury or absence of desire to harm any life forms. 🔺 Ahimsa originated in Jainism, an Indian religion, and is also an important principle in Buddhism, Sikhism, and Hinduism. 🔺 Mahatma Gandhi’s philosophy of non-violence was also profoundly influenced by Ahimsa. ℹ️🗓 No wonder that World Compassion Day (WCD), an annual observance held on November 28, originated in India. WCD was founded in 2012 by Pritish Nandy, an Indian poet, journalist, film producer, media and television personality, politician, and activist. While many international days serve as moments of reflection, WCD stands out by inspiring individuals and influential personalities worldwide to act, to speak on their beliefs, aligning non-violence and compassion with the trials and tribulations of the contemporary era. The first WCD was held in Mumbai and was dedicated to animal welfare. Subscribe- t.me/askmenow
