The Krishna Of The Gita

Service Without Humility Is Selfishness And Egotism.

Just As One Must Learn The Art Of Killing In The Training For Violence, So One Must Learn The Art Of Dying In The Training For Non-violence. Violence Does Not Mean The Emancipation From Fear, But Discovering The Means Of Combating The Cause Of Fear. Nonviolence, On The Other Hand, Has No Cause For Fear. The Votary Of Nonviolence Has To Cultivate The Capacity For Sacrifice Of The Highest Type In Order To Be Free From Fear. He Recks Not If He Should Lose His Land, His Wealth, His Life.

If I Were A Dictator, Religion And State Would Be Separate. I Swear By My Religion. I Will Die For It. But It Is My Personal Affair. The State Has Nothing To Do With It. The State Would Look After Your Secular Welfare, Health, Communications, Foreign Relations, Currency And So On, But Not Your Or My Religion. That Is Everybody's Personal Concern!

Democracy Will Break Under The Strain Of Apron Strings. It Can Exist Only On Trust.

Nonviolence Is A Plant Of Slow Growth, It Grows Imperceptibly But Surely.
