According to Osho, never take up the sword—don’t even lift a pebble. Violence, born of attachment and madness, perpetuates the chain; love breaks it. Offer the other cheek, forgive, and embody peace; that alone defends peace and love. Truth cannot be harmed—attacks only polish it. Therefore respond with awareness, nonviolence, and compassion, not retaliation; transformation, not victory, is the real solution.
No—when someone hurts you, don’t hit back; be loving and calm so the fight ends.
