Which of the following, according to Mahatma Gandhi, is the strongest force in the world?
-
- Non-violence of the brave
- Non-violence of the weak
- Non-violence of the coward
- Non-violence of the downtrodden
Correct Option: A
According to Gandhi, Non violence is not passive. It is active, creative, provocative and challenging. Gandhi described non-violence as “A force more powerful than all the weapons of world combined.” “Non violence is the greatest and most active force in the world.” Gandhi wrote, “It is mightier than the mightiest weapon of destruction devised by the ingenuity of humanity. When we tap into the spirit of non-violence, it becomes contagious and can topple empires.” According to Gandhi one should be brave and not a coward. He should present his views, suggestions and thoughts without being violent. One should fight a war with the weapons of truth and non violence.
