JAMMU, Sept 29: NSS GGM Science College under the patronage of worthy Principal Dr. Ravinder Tickoo and guidance of NSS PO Dr. Deepali Mahajan today started celebration of 152nd birth anniversary of Mahatma gandhi, Gandhi Jayanti under the aegis of Azadi ka Amrut Mahotsav. NSS volunteers Nancy, Pallavi, Sunandini, Shaku, Shifali, Aman, Shabana, Anchal, Shriya, Nihar made posters on Nonviolence: The Path of Ahimsa. Mahatma Gandhi the father of nation, the tallest leader of India's independence movement was a pioneer of the philosophy of ahimsa (non-violence). The famous Sanskrit phrase 'Ahimsa Paramo Dharma' was also popularised by Mahatma Gandhi, which loosely translates to 'non-violence is the highest moral virtue'. NSS aims to spread awareness about the philosophy and strategy of non-violence through education and public awareness. It was Gandhi ji's firm belief that only a non-violent movement can achieve the highest objective of freedom. Ahimsa implies total nonviolence, no physical violence, and no passive violence. Gandhi ji translated Ahimsa as love. Non-violence is a weapon of the strong. Non-violence and truth are inseparable and presuppose one another. We may never be strong enough to be entirely nonviolent in thought, word and deed. |
