Respected Swamiji,Why we are not giviing importanc to Ahimsa in Hinduism whereas the prayer in Jainisam is Ahimso paramo darma.In ourHoli books we can see fighting for to retain dharma. Ultimately what achieving in the end of life.I think Bhoudisam also in this line.I seek your view in the matter.

In reality, Ahimsa is not practically achievable.
Even when we walk on the ground, so many small creatures (like ants) get killed.
Can you avoid destroying mosquitoes or killing a snake that tries to bite you?
However, Ahimsa can be practised as “Loka Samastha Sukhino Bhavanthu” in your heart-full prayer, speech and actions.
That is, each and every moment, you will take decisions that support life to progress in a positive way for every one.
I would say, it is better to transform a terrorist to a good man; but if it is not possible, it is better to kill him before he kills hundreds of innocent people.
As Krishna advised Arjuna, we need to be peaceful in the heart while fighting for social and personal well-being for all.
HariOm!
