Сила ненасилия Махатмы Ганди

Already in the ripe years of Gandhi gives exquisite description of scene on the cemetery, which finally arranged all points above “i”. This was conversation between the priest and the very self-confident gentleman, who, in my view, and now did not lose his urgency.
“- Well as, sir, do believe you in existence of god?
- Yes, answered that quietly.
- Then say to me, if you please, which the value of your god and where it is located?
- [O], if b we knew. It - in our hearts.
- To Nun, do not assume me for the child! - said atheist and [torzhestvuyushche] looked on us.
Priest [smirenno] was silent.
This conversation even more strengthened my prejudice against the atheism”.
And nevertheless in the religious searching of young Gandhi some decisive breakthrough was not sufficient. Yes, it opened for itself the most great values of Hinduizm and Christianity, he became deeply religious person. But religious people there are many, many [induistov] and Christians. Its way of Gandhi found, after being introduced to Leo Tolstoy's study:
“The book “reign [Bozhie] inside us” literally took me, left the indelible
track in my soul. I increasingly more deeply understood the limitless possibilities of universal love”.
It will not by exaggeration say that Gandhi succeeded in carrying out in India that which to Tolstoy did not have luck to personify in Russia: to avoid bloodshed and via nonviolent fight to lead its people to the freedom. True, one should remember that neither Tolstoy nor Gandhi considered political freedom the final goal.
The moral purification of man, return to the most great moral values of world religions - was such their dream. It yet was not carried out. But there is no doubt whatever, that on the outcome of century we approached the revelations of Leo Tolstoy and Gandhi. In Russia the sudden moral transformation of academician Sakharov became this tangible bridge above the abyss. Similar to Gandhi, it did not begin to conceal from those surrounding the truth, which to it was opened, and it proved to be in the reference.
As always, [nenasilie] of authority they answer violence. By Gandhi it repeatedly occurred in the prison.
On the law court it recalled the words of the great American humanist of Thor: “It cannot be been by honest person without having proven to be in the prison”. On the outcome of century academician [A]. [D]. Sakharov will repeat the same words. He resisted totalitarianism by Gandhi's method. By Gandhi it conquered - India became independent variable.
Sakharov conquered in 1985 - in the Soviet Union the Stalinism was exposed and condemned at the state level. But victory - this always and defeat. In independent India began the slaughter between the Moslems and [induistami].
Reconstruction in the Soviet Union is darkened by highland Karabakh, [Sumgaitom], by Fergana,
by Tbilisi slaughter and now by Vilnius. Sakharov did not maintain moral flour and prematurely he left from the life.
By Gandhi with the bitterness it exclaimed: “Earlier I prayed god to give to me 90 years of life, now I to mole about death”.
[Vosmidesyatishestiletniy] majestic old man, robed in the homespun clothing, [s]
by staff it goes into the places of desperate [mezhreligioznoy] struggle. It reads out at the meetings fragments from the bible, the Koran and Veda, that call people to the peace into the name of the god: “I assume that the bible, the Koran, [Zend]- avesta are charismatic just as Veda”.
During the meeting of reconciliation Gandhi approaches religious fanatic- sectarian and he shoots at the support. By Gandhi it died in the hospital with the words: “[Khe] of frames”, in Russian “against [Bog]1”. Gandhi's death the same is one-piece as its life. “The skill of dying emerges as natural consequence of the skill of living… The skill of dying to lies in the fact that meet death is joyful during the performance of its debt. The unwillingness to cause evil to its enemy or to deprive his life is insufficient. You must protect its even at a cost of lives”.
Gandhi it did not want any material tracks of its stay on the earth to remain and it bequeathed to scatter its dust above the ganges. But they carried out will not completely. They nevertheless left and buried the part of the ashes so that it would be where bow to the great person. On the rock plate the last words of Gandhi: “[Khe] of frames”. As one would expect, Gandhi's grave became the place of religious worship.
In many remarkable works about Gandhi, that emerge in our country, there is one and the same deficiency: By Gandhi it appears as public figure among the populous assemblages. Meanwhile the deepest revelations of Gandhi were obtained in the solitude, conversing with the god. Not per minute merciful calmness, but in the deepest desperation of Gandhi frequently found a way out from the most insoluble contradictions:
“When any hope is lost, when no one helps nor comforts, I revealing,
that from somewhere appears the aid. Entreaty, divine service, prayer not religious prejudices. This of action are more real than food, drink, seat or walking. Without the exaggeration it is possible to say that only they are real, and everything else is unreal”.
Do know we, and atheists, and believers, the force of this deep spiritual contact with the highest? Secret of the spiritual life of man inaccessible. Here the reign of religion and skill.
“I do not desire so that my house would be enclosed from all sides by wall and so that my windows would be
it is tightly boarded up. I want so that the culture of all, countries freely would penetrate my house.
But I do not desire so that me they would bring down from the feet”.
Gandhi never it asserted that the truth was opened to it in full weight. He perfectly well understood the limitedness of human judgments about the god. “Those weak, instantaneous flashes of the truths, which I could see, hardly they will express the idea of the uncommon radiance of truth, into millions of times of of stronger than the radiance of the sun, which we each day see. The fact that I understood, is only weak reflection of this powerful radiance”.
Gandhi's exclamation: “I want to see god face to face” - the daring impulse of human spirit, not clouded by self-confidence.
By Gandhi it testified that with the life with it there were numerous phenomena, which are not entered in the framework of ordinary experience and are called word “miracle”. One of such miracles occurred at the end Gandhi's life.
When disorders began and the hostility between [induistami] and Moslems, to Gandhi it said,
that if does not cease the slaughter, there will be terrible earthquake. Unfortunately, disorders did not cease, and earthquake occurred. About this episode testifies Nehru's [Dzhavakharlal] in his book “discovery of India”. Nehru considers this case simple agreement; however, recently in the press began to appear completely serious communications, that the aggressive pulses, which go from the man, can cause deviations in the geomagnetic sphere by their emissions.
