Ahimsa is an attribute of the brave. Cowardice and ahimsa don't go together any more that water and fire.
Mahatma GandhiWhatever does not exist in the body can't be found in the universe, and whatever exists in the universe can be found in the body.
Mahatma GandhiIt is better to be charged with cowardice and weakness than to be guilty of denial of our oath and sin against God.
Mahatma GandhiRama Nama should come from the heart. In that event, Rama Nama could become an effective remedy against all ailments. A man who believes in Rama Nama would not make a fetish of the body but would regard it as a means of serving God. And for making it into a fit instrument for that purpose, Rama Nama is the sovereign means. To install Rama Nama in the heart requires infinite patience. It might even take ages. But the effort is worthwhile. Rama Nama cannot come from the heart unless one has cultivated the virtues of truth, honesty and purity within and without.
