‘LIVE AND LET OTHERS LIVE’ : Life Lessons From MAHAVIRA Edited by Nanditha Krishna [Hardcover]

Live and Let Others Live encapsulates the core teachings of Mahavira, the sixth-century reformer and the twenty-fourth Tirthankara of Jainism. Born into royalty in Kundagrama, he renounced worldly life at thirty to become an ascetic. After twelve years of austerities, he attained omniscience and began to preach principles of non-violence, truthfulness, compassion, and humility. Mahavira emphasized the interconnectedness of all living beings and the environment, principles that resonate with modern environmental science. Edited by Nanditha Krishna, this collection of aphorisms offers timeless wisdom for leading a peaceful and fulfilling life.
