Часть текста: by different names. Veddas. God is love, and he that abideth in love abideth in God, and God abideth in him. 1 Ep. John. Chap. 4. God is one Whole; we are the parts. Exposition of the teaching of the Veddas by Vivekananda. I Do not seek rest in that plane where the earthly gives birth to thoughts and desires, for if thou dost, thou wilt be dragged 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 ...

Часть текста: the wealthy classes use all their power for the retention of indirect slavery based upon landed property. In Russia, where people have never recognised landed property, this infamous action is particularly loathsome on the part of a stupid and coarse government which is endeavouring not only to retain the slaves in their servitude, but also by depraving the people to intensify their slavery in the future. I regard as stupid the action of our present government, because if it had put into practice Henry Georgeis principle that land cannot become exclusive property, — a principle always recognised and still recognised by the great mass of the Russian peasantry, — this measure alone, more effectually than all the acts of violence and cruelty now being accomplished by the government, would have pacified the people, and rendered impossible the codtinuation of the revolution. Whereas the Russian government has had recourse to a measure pricisely contrary to such an one by encouraging in every way the transference of the land from communal ownership to private individual ownership. 1 In this I see the government's astounding stupidity. Whilst in those measures which the government applies for the repression of the dissafection amongst the people naturally flowing from their want in land, is manifested the government’s astounding cruelty. Therefore the activity of the Single-Tax League organised in England is especially gladdening. Henry George is especially to be appreciated by those who profess Christianity in its true sense, for not only are the foundations of his teaching, but also his methods truly Christian. As Jesus in his utterance, «Ye have heard that it was said: Thou shalt not kill,... but I say unto you, Resist not...

Часть текста: devenir toi-même soldat, c’est-à-dire être prêt à tuer tous ceux qu’on te designera». «Je demande: — Qui est ce qui me donne tous ces ordres tellement contraires à ma dignité, à ma raison et à mon sentiment moral? «On me répond: — C’est le gouvernement. «Je demande: — Qu’est ce que c’est que le gouvernement? «On me répond: — Des hommes. «Je demande: — Si ces hommes se distinguent par quelque chose de tous les autres? «On me dit que non, qu’ils sont pareils à tous les autres. «— Pourquoi ferai-je donc ce que m’ordonnent ces hommes? Encore si ces hommes exigeaient de moi des actions honnêtes, tandis que tout ce qu’ils me demandent, en est tout le contraire. Il faudrait être fou pour mettre à leur disposition le produit de mon travail, ou bien mes actions. «— Mais c’est le gouvernement. «— Le gouvernement? Eh bien qu’il fasse ce qu’il trouve bon, mais moi laissez-moi tranquille avec votre gouvernement». Voilà ce qu’aurait dû répondre aux exigences des gouvernements chaque homme raisonnable et non depourvu de sens moral. Mais malheureusement les hommes de notre temps sont tellement abrutis par la...

Часть текста: g Anderson Streets. Telephone N. 1635. Box 6522. Telegrams: «Gandhi». A. B. C. Code 5-th Edition Used. Johannesburg, 15-th August, 1910 Dear Sir, I am much obliged to you for your encouraging and cordial letter of the 8-th May last. I very much value your general approval of my booklet «Indian Home Rule». And, if you have the time, I shall look forward to your detailed criticism of the work which you have been so good as to promise in your letter. Mr. Kallenbach has written to you about Tolstoy Farm. Mr. Kallenbach and I have been friends for many years. I may state that he has gone through most of the experiences that you have so graphically described in your work «My Confession». No writings have so deeply touched Mr. Kallenbach as yours, and, as a spur to further effort in living up to the ideals held before the world by you, he has taken the liberty, after consultation with me, of naming his farm after you. Of his generous action in giving the use of the farm for passive resisters, the numbers of «Indian Opinion» I am sending herewith will...
