His principles of Dhamma were clearly stated in his Edicts. The main features of Asoka\u2019s Dhamma as mentioned in his various Edicts may be summed as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Prohibition of animal sacrifices and festive gatherings and <\/span><b>avoiding expensive and meaningless ceremonies and rituals<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. Service to father and mother, practice of ahimsa, love of truth, reverence to teachers and good treatment of relatives.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Humane treatment of servants by masters<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and prisoners by government officials. Tolerance among all the religious sects. Conquest through Dhamma instead of through war.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The concept of non-violence and other similar ideas of Asoka\u2019s Dhamma are identical with the teachings of Buddha. <\/span><b>But he did not equate Dhamma with Buddhist teachings. Buddhism remained his personal belief<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. <\/span><b>Hence, Option B is the correct answer.<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">His <\/span><b>Dhamma signifies a general code of conduct<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. Asoka wished that his Dhamma should spread through all social levels.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n                                <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n                        \n                        \t\t\n                        \t\t\t\t\t\t\n                        <input type=\"button\" name=\"back\" value=\"Back\"\n                               class=\"wpAdvQuiz_button wpAdvQuiz_QuestionButton\"\n                               style=\"float: left !important; margin-right: 10px !important; display: none;\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t   width:px !Important; height:px !Important; background-color:  !important\">\n                        \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"button\" name=\"next\" value=\"Next\"\n                               class=\"wpAdvQuiz_button wpAdvQuiz_QuestionButton\" style=\"float: right; display: none;\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\twidth:px !Important; height:px !Important; background-color:  !important\">\n                        <input type=\"button\" name=\"check\" value=\"Check\"\n                               class=\"wpAdvQuiz_button wpAdvQuiz_QuestionButton\"\n                               style=\"float: right !important; margin-right: 10px !important; display: none;\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t   \twidth:px !Important; height:px !Important; background-color:  !important\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"button\" name=\"clear\" value=\"Clear\"\n                               class=\"wpAdvQuiz_button wpAdvQuiz_QuestionButton\"\n                               style=\"float: right !important; margin-right: 10px !important; display: block;\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t   \twidth:px !Important; height:px !Important; background-color:  !important\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t                     \n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t                        <div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div>\n\n                                                    <div style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"><\/div>\n                        \n                    <\/li>\n\n                                    <li class=\"wpAdvQuiz_listItem\" style=\"display: none;\">\n                        <div\n                            class=\"wpAdvQuiz_question_page\" style=display:none; >\n                            Question <span>5<\/span> of <span>5<\/span>                        <\/div>\n                        <h5 style=\"display: inline-block;\"\n                            class=\"wpAdvQuiz_header\">\n                            <span>5<\/span>.
