Truth and nonviolence demand that no human being may debar himself from serving any other human being, no matter how sinful he may be.

True nonviolence is mightier than the mightiest violence.

Our children should not be so taught as to despise labour.

Mother cow expects from us nothing but grass and grain.

The very first step in nonviolence is that we cultivate in our daily life, as between ourselves, truthfulness, humility, tolerance, loving kindness.

Hinduism is a living organism liable to growth and decay subject to the laws of Nature. One and indivisible at the root, it has grown into a vast tree with innumerable branches. The changes in the season affect it. It has its autumn and its summer, its winter and its spring. It is, and is not, based on scriptures. It does not derive its authority from one book. Non violence has found the highest expression and application in Hinduism.

We shall make progress towards Swaraj only if we do everything thoughtfully and with understanding.
