Summary

This quote suggests that non-violence and truth are closely connected and rely on each other. It implies that the practice of non-violence can only be genuine if it is based on truth, while truth can only be fully realized through non-violent means. In essence, both concepts are intertwined and mutually dependent on each other. To uphold non-violence, one must embrace and uphold truth, and to seek truth, one must do so without resorting to violence. The quote emphasizes the importance of these principles working together to bring about a more peaceful and just existence.
