Abstract:
Jurisprudence is the art of interpreting the law. Laws lay down standards for human life in personal and social spheres. Nonviolence is the highest standard of life for man. Truth is an end, while nonviolence is the means. The purpose of the law is to establish a nonviolent order, where justice will automatically arrive. The jurisprudence of nonviolence, declares nonviolence as an undercurrent of every law. Nonviolence is a more profound term, a constructive life force that ensures dignity and righteousness in all facets of life. The paper explores how interpreting law in the light of principles of nonviolence can lead to a peaceful social order.
