Jeffery D. Long
1. Explain Long’s analogy between the Jain idea of karma and Newton’s Third Law of Motion, which says that for every (physical) action, there is an equal and opposite (physical) reaction.
2. Explain the Jain idea of ahimsa (nonviolence). How does it differ from typical Western notions of nonviolence?
3. Do you think that Jains would support fighting a war to stop an especially violent, destructive enemy? Why or why not?
