A young lawyer turned activist who worked nonstop for the emancipation of India named Gandhi read Tolstoy’s “A Letter to A Hindu” in “Free Hindustan” while living in South Africa where he resided with a population of 30,000 other Indians who were being oppressed and subjugated by the white Christians in the Transvaal province of South Africa. Gandhi was already a follower of Tolstoy after he read and was radicalized by Tolstoy’s “The Kingdom of GOD is Within You” and immediately Gandhi knew he wanted to publish “A Letter to a Hindu” in his own magazine “Indian Opinion” that he was printing and distributing from Transvaal. And so, the young Gandhi wrote to Tolstoy to make sure that Tolstoy actually wrote the letter and asked Tolstoy if he, Gandhi Himself, could translate “A Letter to A Hindu” into the Indian dialect Guajarati and this began a correspondence of six letters between Gandhi and Tolstoy which concluded with Tolstoy’s death in 1910 at 82 years old. - - some authors are #vile. remember that choot? jbp podcast guest collapsed:: true - is sanjay on same boat? i oicked br, and i feel very different and more real sentiments around the issue of pakistan and bringing all together than sajsy painted - said idea of sub nation india was communism? - here br says “But it must not be forgotten that they have not yet become a nation.” - sanjay quotes from the same book and lies? - - Books/The Story Of My Experiments With Truth #bookAcquired - Books/Pakistan Or The Partition Of India #bookAcquired - As a matter of historical experience, neither race, nor language, nor country has sufficed to mould a people into a nation. The argument is so well put by Renan that it is impossible to improve upon his language. Long ago in his famous essay on Nationality, Renan observed: collapsed:: true - “that race must not be confounded with nation. The truth is that there is no pure race; and that making politics depend upon ethnographical analysis, is allowing it to be borne upon a chimera . . . Racial facts, important as they are in the beginning, have a constant tendency to lose their importance. Human history is essentially different from zoology. Race is not everything, as it is in the sense of rodents and felines.” - “Language invites re-union; it does not force it. The United States and England, Spanish America and Spain speak the same languages and do not form single nations.“ - In man there is something superior to language, —will. The will of Switzerland to be united, in spite of the variety of her languages,’ is a much more important fact than a similarity of language, often obtained by persecution.” - “It is no more the land than the race that makes a nation. The land provides a substratum, the field of battle and work; man provides the soul; man is everything in the formation of that sacred thing which is called a people. Nothing of material nature suffices for it” #Substrate Independence #dotsconnected Nation Network State #boom - “A nation is a living soul, a spiritual principle. Two things, which in truth are but one, constitute this soul, this spiritual principle. One is in the past, the other in the present. One is the common possession of a rich heritage of memories; the other is the actual consent, the desire to live together, the will to preserve worthily the undivided inheritance which has been handed down. - A heroic past, great men, glory,—1 mean glory of the genuine kind,—these form the social capital, upon which a national idea may be founded. - The Spartan hymn, ‘We are what you were; we shall be what you are,’ is in its simplicity the national anthem of every land. - I said just now, ‘to have suffered together’ for indeed, suffering in common is a greater bond of union than joy. As regards national memories, mournings are worth more than triumphs; for they impose duties, they demand common effort.” - “Forgetfulness, and I shall even say historical error, form an essential factor in the creation of a nation; and thus it is that the progress of historical studies may often be dangerous to the nationality. - The king of France who was, if I may say so, the ideal type of a secular crystalliser, the king of France who made the most perfect national unity in existence, lost his prestige when seen at too close a distance. The nation that he had formed cursed him; and today the knowledge of what he was worth, and what he did, belongs only to the cultured. - But the essence of the nation is, that all its individual members should have things in common; and also, that all of them should hold many things in oblivion. No French citizen knows whether he is a Burgundian, an Alan, or a Visigoth; every French citizen ought to have forgotten St. Bartholomew, and the massacres of the South in the thirteenth century. - - - - Reading Dr. B.R Ambedkar today I felt speaking or listening to ancients.
