Best Answer

A balanced answer needs a response from a Hindu and a Buddhist. But I'll offer something from the Buddhist perspective. Essentially violence leads to the creation of more suffering both for the victims and aggressors and others associated with the act.

It could be true to say that this is a belief but it seems to be true when I look at my own life experience.

So my strict answer would be I believe in nonviolence because it leads to a decrease in suffering.

What Hindus views on transplant surgery?

Hindus have many different views on Transplant Surgery, It depends on which Hindu teachings you follow or refer to. Firstly many Hindus believe that the body is NOT important, it's the Atman (soul) that we must look after. If you carry a donor card, which many Hindus do, you are helping someone: therefore you will get good Karma. Hindus believe that when a body dies the Atman lives on. A Hindus goal in life is to gain Moksha, so if you carry out a transplant you are saving a life therefore achieving good Karma. Some Hindus believe that if you have a heart transplant, and the heart belonged to a thief, you will get their Karma. Also if a doctor is trying to save your life, he/she is playing the role o God which is bad! Hope this helped! J
