Ahimsa in theory no one knows. It is as indefinable as God.
Only the toad under the harrow knows where it pinches him.
A samagra gramsevak must know everybody living in the village and render them such service as he possibly can.
We do not know the laws of God, nor their working.
True suffering does not know itself and never calculates.
I know no diplomacy save that of truth.
God is that indefinable something which we all feel but which we do not know.
When you know the truth, the truth makes you a soldier.
You never know where your actions will lead to. But if you don't do anything they will lead you nowhere.
It's not too late at all. You just don't yet know what you are capable of.
Anger and intolerance are the twin enemies of correct understanding
An eye for eye only ends up making the whole world blind.
An eye for an eye would make the whole world blind.
An eye for an eye and everyone shall be blind
