Часть текста: asking the same question that you put to me of Mr. Garrison, 2 who has sent to me the life of his father. 3 Namely I have been asking if there are many persons in America who confess the true Christian religion, which has been exposed in the declaration of non-resistancЕ. In answer to your question I can state to you that there are 30 or 40 persons known to me who confess with me the Christian principles, exposed in my book and that with every year and month their number increases. We are not organized in a church and never will bЕ. I think that the sole means to get in a true church is not to organize churches or communities, but to seek only after the Kingdom of God and its trutН. We will meet there from all parts of the world, and from all different nations and religious confessions if only we are true seekers of the trutН. I shall expect your promised information and be very thankful for iТ. Leo Tolstoy. Дорогой друг, я был очень рад получить ваше письмо, и узнать, что, благодаря напечатанию моей книги, 1 я приобрел братьев в Америке. Тот вопрос, который вы мне задаете, я недавно задал Гаррисону, 2 который прислал мне биографию своего отца. 3 (Именно, я спрашивал, много ли людей в Америке исповедуют истинную христианскую религию, изложенную в декларации непротивления). В ответ на ваш вопрос, могу сказать вам, что мне известны 30—40 лиц, которые разделяют вместе со мной христианские принципы, изложенные в моей книге, и что с каждым годом и месяцем число их увеличивается. Мы не объединены в какую-либо церковь и никогда не...

Часть текста: 23 октября (5 ноября) 1904 г. 251. Изо-Абэ (Iso-Abé). 1904 г. Октября 23/ноября 5. Я. П . 23/5 October Toula. Jasnaya Poliana. Dear friend Iso Abé, It was a great pleasure for me to receive your letter and your paper 1 with the english article. 2 I thank you heartily for both. Though I never doubted that there are in Japan a great many reasonable, moral and religious men, who are opposed to the horrible crime of war which is now perpetrated by both betrayed and stupified nations, I was very glad to get the proof of it. It is a great joy for me to know that I have friends and coworkers in Japan with which I can be in friendly intercourse. Wishing to be quite sincere with you, as I wish to be with every esteemed friend, I must tell you that I do not approuve of socialism and am sorry to know that the most spiritually advanced part of your, so clever and energetic people, has taken from Europe the very feeble, illusory and fallacious theory of socialism, which in Europe is beginning to be abandoned. Socialism has for its aim the satisfaction of the meanest part of human nature: his material wellbeing and by the means it proposes can never attain them. The true wellbeing of humanity is spiritual i. e. moral and includes the material wellbeing. And this higher goal can be attained only by religious i. e. moral perfection of all the unites which compose nations and humanity. By religion I understand the reasonable belief in a (general for all humanity) law of God which practically is exposed in the ...

Часть текста: so is every degree of perfection attainable by man — only an approach to the perfection of the Father, which Christ showed us the way to emulate. Therefore, in reality, every deed of the best man and his whole life will be always only a practical compromise — a resultant between his feebleness and his striving to attain perfection. And such a compromise in practice is not a sin, but a necessary condition of every Christian life. The great sin is the compromise in theory, is the plan to lower the ideal of Christ in view to make it attainable. And I consider the admission of force (be it even benevolent) over a madman (the great difficulty is to give a strict definition of a madman) to be such a theoretical compromise. In not admitting this compromise I run the risk only of my death or the death of other men who can be killed by the madman; but death will come sooner or later, and death in fulfilling the will of God is a blessing (as you put it yourself in your book); but in admitting this compromise I run the risk of acting contrary to the law of Christ — which is worse than death. It is the same with property. As soon as I admit in principle my right to property, I necessarily will try to keep it from others and to increase it, and therefore will deviate very far from the ideal of Christ. Only when I profess daringly that a Christian cannot have any property — will I in practice come near to the ideal of Christ in this instance. There is a striking example of such a deviation in theory about anger in Matth., V, 22, where the added word είχη̃ («without any cause») have...

Часть текста: agree with your two main points: 1 - mo that morality must be the basis of progress and 2 - o that morality is true only when it is an effort to promote organic unity of society as you term it — to establish the kingdom of God on earth as I express the same thing. The book made such a impression on me that I wished it to be translated in Russian and sent it to a friend of mine 2 for that purpose. I quite endorse the opinion of the Revue d’Economie politique, 3 that it is a quite new and more élevé aspect of socialism. If my opinion of your book can be of any use to you I quite conscientiously say that I highly apreciate your book, the ideas exposed in it and the expression of them Yours truly L. Tolstoy. Милостивый государь. Я получил вашу книгу «Our Destiny» 1 несколько месяцев тому назад и давно поблагодарил бы вас, если б знал ваш адрес. Я прочел ее от начала до конца более чем с сильным интересом. Вполне согласен с вами по двум главным пунктам: во-первых, что нравственность должна быть основой ...

Часть текста: your book, is the eternal and universal foundation of all true philosophies and all religions. The truth that the principle of all that exists we cannot otherwise feel and understand than as Love and that the soul of man is an emanation of this principle, the development of which is what we call human life — is a truth that is more or less consciously felt by every man and therefore accessible to the most scientifically developed minds as well as to the most simple. This truth is the foundation of the religion of Krishna and of all religions. But in the religion of Krishna, as well as in all ancient religions, there are statements which not only cannot be proved, but which are clearly products of uncontrolled imagination and which, moreover, are quite unnecessary for the conception of the essential truth and the affirmation of rules of conduct which flow out of the fundamental principle. Such are all the cosmological and historical affirmations of creations, durability of the world, all the stories of miracles, the theory of the four ages and the immoral and contradictory to the fundamental principle organization of casts. ...
