Jaini discusses two projects in which the Jain community has taken what he considers a "balanced approach" to achieving what might be considered to be the best outcome in the context and practice of ahimsa. These projects are the use of coal as an energy source in India and the malaria control project. For your post please select one of these two projects and discuss the complexity of the issue as well as what a balanced approach to the project from the Jain perspective entails--how is a balanced approach different from simply the approach of no harm?
