The literal meaning of “Ahimsa” is nonviolence. It respects the belief that all beings are connected as one, and was regarded as the highest ideal to strive for by Mahatma Gandhi in his “Satyagraha” (Truth) movement for India’s freedom. Ahimsa is Columbia’s one and only student organization devoted to promoting this Jain and Gandhian edict. We hope to raise awareness through inviting well-renowned speakers on the subject of Ahimsa and participating in different community outreaches, as well as share our South Asian cultural traditions through our Mahavir Jayanti Dinner and Diwali celebrations.
