haiku about ancient India's emperor Ashok who laid down his weapons of violence and accepted  tolerance and nonviolence, based on buddhism

buddha is my abode

here I find my true self

sacred space I come again and again

breathing in earth’s beauty

no more I pollute the divine planet

in communion with ultimate reality
