“Next, the third is ‘Ahiṃsā’; this too is a chief quality. Hurting others, causing them hardship, ensnaring them in worries: vṛttis of this kind are called ‘hiṃsā’. To be without them is called Ahiṃsā. But merely not hurting others with the body is not Ahiṃsā. To practise, in the karmas of mind, speech and body, vṛttis that are free from harm and free from selfishness: this is what is called true Ahiṃsā.”
