The Great Compromise was the deal of how representation for each state in Congress as written in the Constitution worked. Small states such as New Jersey wanted each state to have an equal amount of representatives regardless of their population.
Citizens gained fair state representation through a bicameral congress in the Great Compromise of the U.S. Constitution in 1787. However, it also included the Three-Fifths Compromise, which denied full human rights and representation to enslaved individuals.
The Great Compromise, or the Connecticut Compromise, resulted in two significant outcomes that impacted individual citizens. The primary gain was fair representation. The compromise established a bicameral congress with equal representation in the Senate (favoring smaller states) and proportional representation in the House of Representatives (favoring larger states).
However, there was also a loss entailed - the Three-Fifths Compromise. Enslaved individuals were counted as 'three-fifths' of a person when determining the population for representation and taxation purposes. This rule boosted the representation of slave-holding states, yet disregarded the rights and personhood of the enslaved individuals.
Thus, the Great Compromise allowed for an effective federal government while perpetuating the deep social injustice of slavery. It aimed to promote balance and unity among the states, yet simultaneously entrenched stark inequalities and paved the road for future conflict.

Ahimsa or practicing non-violence is part of eastern philosophies and religions like Hinduism and Buddhism aimed at achieving liberation from the cycle of existence. This is often achieved through meditation, ethical action, and compassion towards all beings. Hindus aim to realize their soul as the divine reality, while Buddhists follow the Noble Eightfold Path to achieve nirvana.
The practice of asceticism, meditation, and striving for moral perfection in the context of ahimsa, or nonviolence, forms an integral part of several eastern philosophies and religions like Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. Ahimsa, rooted in the belief of a causal interconnection among living beings, underscores the idea that harming others ultimately harms oneself, with the laws of karma and reincarnation reinforcing this principle. Hence practising virtues of love, kindness, and compassion becomes critically important in one's aim to achieve liberation from the cycle of death and rebirth, or samsara in Indian philosophy.
In the Hindu tradition, the goal is to realize that the individual soul or atman is essentially the divine reality, or brahman. This union can be achieved through various practices such as yoga, meditation, and rituals. In Buddhism, following the Noble Eightfold Path (right understanding, right mindedness, right speech, right action, right living, right effort, right attentiveness, right concentration) is recommended as a way to end suffering and achieve nirvana. Nirvana is the state where one is free from all desire and transcends individuality, thereby breaking the cycle of reincarnation.
In conclusion, by practicing non-violence, love, kindness, and compassion towards all beings, following ethical practices, and by focusing on spiritual pursuits one could achieve liberation from the cycle of existence and suffering.
