non-harming
Doing no damage
Non-harming is the principle or practice of not causing injury or damage to others.
The term appears most often in ethical, spiritual, or philosophical contexts, translating concepts like the Sanskrit *ahimsa*: The Buddhist precept of non-harming extends to all sentient beings.
It implies active avoidance of harm rather than mere passive absence of violence.
