The Absence of the Desire to Kill

Share it Please
Ahimsa is the spiritual concept of nonviolence based on the idea that all living beings have the spark of Divinity in them and should therefore be treated with respect. Being nonviolent in action may be the most accessible way to practice, however, nonviolence in thoughts and words is equally rewarding.

To see this week's video on YouTube, click here.

Dr. Raymond Charles Barker wrote this Affirmative Prayer, which I find effective in keeping my thoughts, words, and deeds on the path of most kindness and least harm:

There is only one mind, God, and my world is saturated with divine ideas that lead me every step of my way. No more indecision, mistakes or wrong judgments. My consciousness is a center of perfect intelligence in that mind which is God. The action of God's ideas in my thinking is now complete. I know what I need to know at the instant I need to know it. My consciousness is ever expanding in its scope and interest. I let divine ideas govern my thinking and divine love govern my feelings. I am the unlimited outlet open unlimited mind.

Blessings,

Edward Viljoen

I have been through the book three times over three years, and am starting it again. This is not because the material in the book is not working, but because it is working so well! The weekly lessons keep me on track and focused on what is actually true and important, and help me experience more good in every area of my life. LS
