Часть текста: through the rough wilderness of life, which is not of Me. Whenever thou feelest that thy feet are becoming entangled in the interlaced roots of life, know then that thou hast strayed from the path to which I beckon thee, for I have placed thee in broad smooth paths which are strewn with flowers. I have put a light before thee, which thou can’st follow and thus run without stumbling. Krishna P. 212. I received your letter and the two issues of the magazine. Both were intensely interesting to me; indeed, the oppression of a majority by the minority of a people and the corruption which flows from it, is a phenomenon which has always occupied my mind and at present is entirely occupying my attention. I will endeavour to convey to you what I think, both in a particular and a general way, about those causes from which those dreadful calamities have arisen and do arise, of which you write in your letter and which are also mentioned in the two numbers of the Hindoo magazine you sent me. The causes, owing to which this astonishing spectacle arises, of the majority of the labouring classes submitting to a mere handful of idlers whom it permits to dispose not only of its labour but also of its very life, are always and everywhere the same; whether the oppressors and the oppressed belong to the ...

Часть текста: 2 in his, that a Christian life is quite impossible in the present unchristian organization of society. The contradictions between his surroundings and his convictions are very painful for a man who is sincere in his сhristian faith, and therefore the organization of communities seems to such a man the only means of delivering himself from these contradictions. But this is an illusion. Every community is a small island in the mist of an ocean of unchristian conditions of life, so that the christian relations exist only between members of the colony but outside that must remain unchristian, otherwise the colony would not exist for a moment. And therefore to live in community cannot save a christian from the contradiction between his conscience and his life. I do not mean to say that I do not approve of communities such as your commonwealth, or that I do not think them to be a good thing. On the contrary, I approve of them with all my heart and am very interested in your commonwealth and wish it the greatest success. I think that every man who can free himself from the...

Часть текста: to public and uniform public prayers, firstly, because the repetition on Sunday in the same words is perfectly useless, as it very soon becomes a mechanical procedure; secondly and chiefly, because in the Gospels this error is plainly pointed out and it is there definitely said (Math. VI), that one should not pray in public places, but in solitude, which is corroborated both by the reason and the experience of every man, who has ever sincerely prayed to God, as the assembly of people only distracts, makes one’s thoughts wander and diverts them. I think that Sunday rest and dedication of this day to spiritual exercise may take place in the most various forms. One may suggest, that men of the same spirit, meeting together on Sunday, should bring to their meeting such religious books or articles which they find in ancient and modern literature and read and discuss them together; one may suggest, that meeting together on Sunday men of the same spirit should arrange dinners for the poor and themselves serve those dinners; one may suggest, that meeting together men of the same spirit should confess their sins to each other and discuss them. In short one can think of a hundred different forms of worship, which should all have for their aim a mutual spiritual help and should not be mechanical, but sensible. 2) Do I believe in the resurrection and that there is a hereafter? I believe in true, i. e. indestructible life which Christ has disclosed to us and for the which death does not exist. But this life should in no-wise be understood as a resurrection to future life, as a hereafter. One cannot be too cautious in the use of terms for the definition of the true, indestructible, eternal life. If we were to say, that it will be a personal life, that we shall pass into other bodies or beings, as the Buddhists understand it in...

Часть текста: wise. The Brahmanes say that in their books there are many predictions of times in which it will rain. But press those books as strongly as you can, you can not get out of them a drop of water. So you can not get out of all the books that contain the best preceptes the smalest good deed. Ruskin says, that the best men, those which have done the greatest good to humanity are those that we do not know of. The chief difference between words and deeds is, that words are always intended for men for their aprobation, but deeds can be done only for God. Though it is possible to utter words only with the intention to fulfill the will of God it is very difficult not to think about the impression w[h]ich they will produce on men and not to form them accordingly. But deeds you can do quite unknown to men only for God. And such deeds are the greatest joy that a man can experience. As to his plan to live amongst prostitutes and tramps... I can not say that I approuve of it. Rather not. I think that to change own’s habitual life for such a one a man must [be] quite sure to be proof against the new temptations that will assail him in this new life. This...

Graf Leo Tolstoi, nach der Vollendung seiner militärischen und in Anfängen seiner litterarishcen Laufbahn, schrieb an seinen Freund Fet-Schenschin, den nachmaligen Übersetzer des Philosophen: „Ein unwandelbares Entzücken an Schopenhauer und eine Reihe geistiger Genüße durch ihn haben mich erfaßt, wie ich sie nie bisher empfunden. Ich weiß nicht, ob ich die Meinung je ändern werde, aber gegenwärtig finde ich, daß Schopenhauer der geniälste der Menschen ist. Es ist eine ganze Welt in einem unglaublich kleinen und schönen Spiegelgebilde“. Noch im Jahre 1890 sei Schopenhauers Bildniß das einzige Porträt in seinem Studierzimmer gewesen 2 . Но еще важнее следующее место: Стр. 123. (Показавши, что Шопенгауэр ничуть не...

Часть текста: were right in guessing that I must be interested in the Tolstoy Society. So I was. But I am sorry that I have enough vanity left to be interested in it. I have always held the opinion and it cannot change — that to be a member of the old Society that was started by God at the beginning of conscious humanity, is more profitable for oneself and for mankind than to be a member of limited societies which we organise for the sake of attaining the end which we are able to conceive. I think the preference we give to our own Societies is due to the fact that the part we play in our own Societies seems to us to be of much greater importance than the one we play in God’s great Society. But this is only an illusion; all the three modes of activity which you mention in your letter will be more surely attained by a man who regards himself a member of God’s great Society, than by a member of Tolstoy’s Society. Such a man who is earnest, as I know you are, will, firstly spread as much as he can the ideas that give him peace of conscience and energy in life without minding whether they are Tolstoy’s or anybody else’s. He will secondly try with all his might to induce people to speak their mind on the most important questions of life. He will,...

Часть текста: die Klugheit der Schlange soologisch nicht richtig ist, bleibt doch der Sinn des Evangelischen Spraches ganz klar und wahr. Im Algemeinen glaube ich dass man die Sprüche des Evangeliums nicht streng annehmen soll. 4) Die vierte Frage, wie ich sie verstehe, besteht in der Erklärung des Üebels in der Welt. Ich glaube das alles, was uns als Üebel erscheint, erscheint uns so nur wegen unserer geistlicher Kurzsichtigkeit. Jeder Mann muss die Erfarung gemacht haben, dass was ihm früher als Üebel erschient, später, wenn sein Vernunft sich entwickelte, nicht mehr als Üebel, sondern als Gutes vorkam. 5) Das Fegefeuer und das Paradies der ortodoxen Christen so wie das Karma der Theosophen scheint mir eine zu sehr nicht berechtigte Bestimmung der Form des künftigen Lebens zu sein. Alles was wir darüber denken und sagen kennen ist dass wenn der Grund des Menschlichen Lebens geistig ist und der Mensch sein Ich in das Geistliche übergetragen hat, so ist es (das Ich) außer der Zeit und kann deswegen weder Anfang noch Ende haben. ...
