Non-Violence and Ahimsa
"True Ahimsa should mean a complete freedom from ill will and anger and hate and an overflowing of love for all."
entails not just abstaining from all violence, but fully embracing an enemy with love.
Satya (Truth)
Gandhi equated Satya (Truth) with God. He said, "Truth is my God. Non-violence is the means of realizing him."
Satyagraha (Truth-Force}
Satyagraha literally means "holding on to Truth." It may also be "described as love-force, soul-force, or more popularly but less accurately, passive resistance."
Swaraj (Self-Rule)
The necessary pre-condition for swaraj was "a moral life on the part of every individual," which would lead to a "community of self-regulated individuals, each performing his moral duty…"
this teachings of Gandhi to me have great relevance in present world.To remove hatred and help each other.what do u think?
