La NO violencia |

–
La NO violencia no es la simple ausencia de violencia.
- La NO violencia es tener la oportunidad de hacer daño y abstenerse de hacerlo.
- Es el reflejo del amor y la compasión humanas; es tan inseparable como la bondad de la compasión.
SS El Dalai Lama
–
La violencia es el miedo a los ideales de los demás.
