AHIMSA: THE ULTIMATE WINNER (English)
By Dr. NP Jain
2004 220 x 140 mm 270 pp
Ahimsa is a morality that replaces greed with contentment, hatred with tolerance and killing with reverence for all life. It is this aspect of Ahimsa, with its attendant strengths such as a progressive, pro-life, tolerant, pro-environment attitude and way of life that is emphasised in this very well written book on Ahimsa and Jainism.
The central theme of all the chapters is the need to create an awareness of and confidence in the practise of Ahimsa at individual and collective level as a potent harbinger of a brighter, more tolerant, more peaceful world.
The language is simple and the thoughts are crystal clear. It is apleasure to read this book.
The author has been the Ambassador of India at the UN, EU, Belgium, Mexico and Nepal. He has retired after a distinguished career as a diplomat. He was a honoured by a PhD by the Academy of International Affairs in 1984 and accorded the title of Professor by Frei University, Belgium in 1988.
