Definitions

In the Khenjuk, Mipham Rinpoche says:

  • Tib. ཞེ་སྡང་མེད་པ་ནི་སེམས་ཅན་དང་སྡུག་བསྔལ་གྱི་ཆོས་ལ་ཀུན་ནས་མནར་སེམས་མེད་པ་སྟེ་ཉེས་སྤྱོད་ལ་མི་འཇུག་པར་བྱེད་པའོ།
  • Non-aggression is the absence of a hostile attitude towards a sentient being or an object that causes pain. It prevents one from becoming involved in negative actions. (Rigpa Translations, Erik Pema Kunsang)

Alternative Translations

  • Non-hatred (Gyurme Dorje, Tony Duff)
