Answer:

Ahinsa was included as a fundamental principle by the 24th and last tirthankar of Jainism, Lord Mahavir and was not included by earlier tirthankars of Jainism. The term ahinsa means nonviolence, non-injury and absence of desire to harm any life forms. ... Violence is usually associated with causing harm to others.

Explanation:

Lord Mahavira preached the path of peace, ahimsa, equality and Anekant. His philosophy aims at welfare of both the individual and the society. Everyone is equal in Jainism and the utmost importance is given to refining the individual character and behaviour to achieve the knowledge of the self.
