Quote by Mahatma Gandhi

Non-violence requires a double faith, faith in God and also faith in man.

Non-violence requires a double faith, faith in God and also

Summary

This quote from Mahatma Gandhi emphasizes the essence of non-violence as a philosophy. Gandhi argues that to practice non-violence, one must have two types of faith. Firstly, faith in God, which can provide the spiritual guidance and strength needed to pursue a peaceful approach. Secondly, faith in humanity, the belief that people have the capacity for compassion, understanding, and peaceful coexistence. This dual faith reinforces the notion that non-violence is a deeply rooted belief system that relies on both divine support and the inherent goodness of the human spirit.

This river will teach you everything you need to learn. The water follows and trusts the current. It doesn't try to direct itself but allows itself to be pulled easily and naturally to the ocean. The current knows where its going. That's why its the current. The twigs bob merrily along the surface and trhe fish trust everything the current brings. The water is called by what is greater, the ocean, where the current both begins and ends. And this is how we are led when we trust our source and allow that source to lead us along to the fullest, happiest expression of life.
