satyagraha
Satyagraha
“Satya-truth-implies love.
Agraha-to grasp-firmness, engenders and therefore serves as a synonym for force.”
A firm grasp or force that which is of truth-love. A force that acts-works for the freedom of all beings. (my interpretation)
“Satyagraha-is a weapon of the strong; it admits of no violence under any circumstances whatever; and it ever insists upon truth”
M. Gandhi
