Ahimsa: nonviolence: 1

In program we talk about being right sized. In the past I fluctuated between feelings that I was better than everyone around me, and that I was a total loser.  This was abnormal thinking, and unbalanced feeling.  Today I can be a worker among workers, a friend among friends.  I am a brilliant child of God, a divine light in the fabric of the universe, as are we all; yet I can be humble, gracious and kind.  In this state of being there is no place for violence of any kind, towards myself, in the forms of derogatory thoughts and feelings, or towards my fellows, all living beings.  In this I have the complete freedom to be the beautiful creature that I am, without sacrifice, and without harm.
