The Practice of Non-Violence | In Quest of Truth - Babaji Q&A, No. 243
Recorded on 13 September 2025 with worldwide participants

0:00 Intro
0:06 What is the true meaning of non-violence
9:38 When Babaji says ‘you have aright to defend yourself’ - is that the self respect? That Babaji talks about?
11:25 Is it the human being that has the ability to rise out of violence compared to the animal kingdom.
20:18 Where we can we adjust and manage, but If we have no choice, we have to defend ourselves and go into a conflict. What is the difference between these approaches?
29:36 If we aim for moksha then why do people raise a family and bring another life into this world?
 34:03 Hanuman burning down the Lanka and Krishna telling Arjun to kill Bhisma - how is this ahimsa?
38:02 Are we violating non-violence by eating meat?
39:18 Was Krishan advising Arjuna to shoot weapons at the Kauravas as an act of self defence?
39:36 Is the ego of being righteous and a good person also violence?
42:23 When Babaji had to defend the Ashram and chose the path of conflict, it was dharma - but for someone else it might look like a violent act?
 43:35 Is it ok to keep eyes closed when Babaji says to open the eyes at the end of meditation?
44:20 When we watch in between the eyebrows are we to imagine that area?
