ABSTRACT

Identities can kill, but we need identities that can heal. Identity is a multi-dimensional journey in self, culture, society and the world. Identity refers to dynamic relationship between self and non-self, self and no-self, other within self, self within other and many related fields of existence, reality, realizations, aspirations and transformations. Identity is many a time linked to violence and this chapter explores who we can link it non-violence—Ahimsa.
