Three quotes on ahimsa, or non violence
by Jo Johnson
‘Working with ahimsa means that a practice can be a constant source of surprise, because the lack of self-imposed limits ensures that the practice unfolds in its own time.’
‘To be empty of violence is different from being unviolent.’
‘Engaging with practice with the intention, conscious or otherwise, of developing power or control, will, it seems to me, underline the impossibility of this.’
