Ahimsa
Most Hindu Religious Leaders Are Worried By Anti-Muslim Hate, But Silent For Fear of Hindutva Groups The Wire Apr 27, 2023 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HA0Tm92s3w
The America-based organization Hindus for Human Rights, which has just completed what it calls a prema yatra “searching for hindu religious leaders who are concerned about the state of affairs in India today”, has concluded that the majority of the hindu religious leaders they met are concerned about the deteriorating state of hindu-muslim relations and the way muslims are often treated but are scared to speak out because of their fear of the response from hindu nationalist groups. The yatra was conducted in February-March this year and travelled across 9 states, visiting 12 cities and several villages and met nearly 30 hindu religious leaders. The organization said these are significant and important leaders who have considerable influence in their local communities. The yatra also visited major pilgrimage sites like Haridwar, Varanasi and Ayodhya as well as important metropolises such as Delhi, Mumbai and Thiruvananthapuram. In a North-South sense it was a pan-India yatra though not necessarily so in an East-West sense.

Ahimsa : did not die with Gandhi - It is Living today. The evidence is that despite all the issues Ahimsa is dominant. - Rajni Bakshi on Ahimsa Conversations in संगठन संदेश - Sangathan Sandesh https://www.facebook.com/incsandesh/videos/547874836910939/
Peace activist David Swanson explains how it takes a long, concerted and diligent effort to avoid peace and make war. David draws attention to the conflict in Ukraine where nonviolent resistance is manifest as people are kneeling or standing before tanks, feeding soldiers and talking them out of fighting. David also addresses how to locate this spontaneous activism in the larger frame of the human will for power.
The notion that war is normal and we have to struggle for peace is a fundamental lie. David Swanson is one of the co-founders of the global network, World Beyond War,

Man's basic aspiration is to be empty of violence. Our Core Nature is Ahimsa. It is full of Karuna (compassion)
and Comradeship. All the violent ways, and violence generating destructive tendencies are delussions.. And they are caused by causes and conditions which are essentially external influences. They are not our basic nature. That is why, to keep our hearts, and our minds in its natural state, would be to maintain Ahimsa
