Ethical System:Pathways, Virtues, and Ahimsa Overview

1. Ethical System:Pathways, Virtues, and Ahimsa
   Overview
   Jainism focuses on the idea of ahimsa, that is, doing no harm. Buddhism focuses on the end of dukka, that is, suffering. In addition to the textbook readings, read the article, Ahimsa. With this in mind, we will discuss the pros and cons of ahimsa and the Buddhist concept of suffering.
