Gandhi's Wisdom

IndaMerit-Amun

It is no nonviolence if we merely love those who love us.
It is nonviolence only when we love those who hate us.
I know how difficult it is to follow this grand law of love. But are not all great and good things difficult to do? Love of the hater is the most difficult of all. But by the grace of God, even this most difficult thing becomes easy to accomplish if we want to do it.

Thank you.

This seems very difficult,
but I guess if we try hard enough,
it can be done.

Thank you Sue and Gisele.

This is a difficult task indeed, but in order to achieve world peace and harmony, we must try.
Maybe we can start by having kind thoughts towards all beings, instead of being angry about how they have handled things.

The Dalai Lama says, "Perhaps it is best to put the emphasis on kindness."

Let's try this for a start.

Love, Inda

Love is the subtlest force
in the world.

Dear Inda

The Bible tells us to look beyond the
surface and see the Christ in all.
God is All - Some really hide from
this truth and show forth a lesser
picture.

If only Good is real, we must see past
the so-called evil and see only the
reality. And Yes, this is no easy task.
Thank you,
