Kay raised her hand. "Satyagraha is a Sanskrit word that has been translated as meaning "civil disobedience", "passive resistance", "truth force", or "the willingness to endure great personal suffering in order to do what's right." The term has also been translated as "non-violent protest." Ahimsa is a religious concept which advocates non-violence and a respect for all life. The word ahisma is a Sanskrit word for avoidance of injury, and is interpreted most often as meaning peace and reverence toward all sentient beings."
