ahimsā is the foremost among the dharmas that are common to all. It is included in the yoga of mind control. Ahimsā means much more than what is meant by non-injury; it implies not doing harm to others even by thought or word.
By nature none of us wants to cause any hurt to other people. But if others do us harm we want to retaliate in anger. Suppose one of our own children sets fire to our house in all innocence. We do not punish it but try to extinguish the fire and thereafter take care to see that the child is kept away from fire and other dangerous objects. We must learn to think that all those who cause us pain are like this child. If a person tries to hurt us, we must lovingly prevent him from doing so. We must not bear any ill-will against him nor think of retaliating. This is true ahimsā.
WHENEVER WE SEEK TO GET'EVEN' WE PICK UP THE KARMA FOR THAT ACTION. THIS DOESN'T MEAN THE LAW WILL BE AVOIDED BUT REVENGE COMESWIPPING BACK ON THOSE THAT SEEK IT.
IT'S ALL KARMIC CYCLE IN ANY CASE & AS WE LET IT GO, BIG OR SMALL, IT GOES ON IT'S WAYYYYYYYY. GJ THAT'S WHY CHRIST SAID, 'FORGIVE THOSE WHO DESPITEFULLY USE YOU.'
