More From Mahatma Gandhi

As to ethics, unfortunately, we are still at sea. we never did have any popular base for what little ethics we knew, except the religious theories, and now that our faith is shaken in those theories we cannot account for ethics at all. it is no wonder we behave badly, we are literally ignorant of the laws of ethics, which is the simplest of sciences, the most necessary, the most continuously needed. the childish misconduct of our 'revolted youth' is quite equaled by that of older people, and neither young nor old seem to have any understanding of the reasons why conduct is 'good' or 'bad.

Consequently, if you believe god made satan, you must realize that all satan's power comes from god and so that satan is simply god's child, and that we are god's children also. there are no children of satan, really.

"judge not, that ye be not judge"... is an abdication of moral responsibility: it is a moral blank check one gives to others in exchange for a moral blank check one expects for oneself. there is no escape from the fact that men have to make choices; so long as men have to make choices, there is no escape from moral values; so long as moral values are at stake, no moral neutrality is possible. to abstain from condemning a torturer, is to become an accesory to the torture and murder of his victims. the moral principle to adopt... is: "judge, and be prepared to be judged."
Fear Responsibility Men
The suffering of sickness and the suffering of persecution have this in common: they are both intended by satan for the destruction of our faith, and governed by god for the purifying of our faith... christ sovereignly accomplishes his loving, purifying purpose, by overruling satan's destructive attempts. satan is always aiming to destroy our faith; but christ magnifies his power in weakness.

Fantasy is not antirational, but pararational; not realistic but surrealistic, a heightening of reality. in freud's terminology, it employs primary not secondary process thinking. it employs archetypes which, as jung warned us, are dangerous things. fantasy is nearer to poetry, to mysticism, and to insanity than naturalistic fiction is. it is a wilderness, and those who go there should not feel too safe.

Many prefer not to exercise their imaginations at all. they choose to remain comfortably within the bounds of their own experience, never troubling to wonder how it would feel to have been born other than they are. they can refuse to hear screams or to peer inside cages; they can close their minds and hearts to any suffering that does not touch them personally; they can refuse to know. i might be tempted to envy people who can live that way, except that i do not think they have any fewer nightmares than i do. the wilfully unimaginative see more monsters. they are often more afraid.

We have to stop thinking about ourselves so much and start thinking about the environment. we have to change.
