| Not
to harm others whether in thought, word or deed is Ahimsa. But it is
a virtue to be practised by the strong and the brave, and not by the
weak and the cowardly.
Consonance of thoughts, words and deeds is Satya or truth. It goes without saying that these must be right and good. Asteya is non-stealing, non-covetousness included. Chastity in thought, word and deed is the core of Brahmacharya. Not to accept anything from others, more than what is absolutely necessary for sustenance is Aparigraha. |
