Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Leo Tolstoy's 'The Kingdom of God Is Within You,' the author explores the concept of nonviolent resistance and the importance of living a moral and just life. This philosophical work delves into religion, ethics, and the nature of power, presenting Tolstoy's beliefs in a clear and persuasive manner. Written in a straightforward and accessible style, the book challenges readers to consider the implications of their actions and the true source of authority in society. With its powerful message and thought-provoking ideas, 'The Kingdom of God Is Within You' remains a timeless classic in the realm of political and moral philosophy. Leo Tolstoy, known for his epic novels like 'War and Peace' and 'Anna Karenina,' was a prolific writer and social reformer. His own struggles with faith and morality undoubtedly influenced the writing of this book, making it a deeply personal and compelling work. I highly recommend 'The Kingdom of God Is Within You' to anyone interested in exploring the intersections of religion, ethics, and social justice.

Download or read book THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN YOU written by Leo Tolstoy and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2017-06-21 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1870s Tolstoy experienced a profound moral crisis, followed by what he regarded as an equally profound spiritual awakening, as outlined in his non-fiction work A Confession. His literal interpretation of the ethical teachings of Jesus, centering on the Sermon on the Mount, caused him to become a fervent Christian anarchist and pacifist. Tolstoy's ideas on nonviolent resistance, expressed in such works as The Kingdom of God Is Within You, were to have a profound impact on such pivotal 20th-century figures as Mohandas Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Jr., and James Bevel. In this treatise Tolstoy explains that he feels that the Church's doctrines are mistaken because they have made a "perversion" of Christ's true teaching. He then goes on to explain what those teachings are and how one can become a true Christian in this war prone world. The title of the book is taken from Luke 17:21. In the book Tolstoy speaks of the principle of nonviolent resistance when confronted by violence, as taught by Jesus Christ. When Christ says to turn the other cheek, Tolstoy asserts that Christ means to abolish violence, even the defensive kind, and to give up revenge. Tolstoy rejects the interpretation of Roman and medieval scholars who attempted to limit its scope. "How can you kill people, when it is written in God's commandment: 'Thou shalt not murder'?" Tolstoy took the viewpoint that all governments who waged war are an affront to Christian principles.

This book was released on 2020-07-21 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dangers of political violence and the possibilities of non-violence were the central themes of three lives which changed the twentieth century—Leo Tolstoy, writer and aristocrat who turned against his class, Mohandas Gandhi who corresponded with Tolstoy and considered him the most important person of the time, and Nelson Mandela, prisoner and statesman, who read War and Peace on Robben Island and who, despite having led a campaign of sabotage, saw himself as a successor to Gandhi. Tolstoy, Gandhi, and Mandela tried to create transformed societies to replace the dying forms of colony and empire. They found the inequalities of Russia, India, and South Africa intolerable yet they questioned the wisdom of seizing the power of the state, creating new kinds of political organisation and imagination to replace the old promises of revolution. Their views, along with their ways of leading others, are closely connected, from their insistence on working with their own hands and reforming their individual selves to their acceptance of death. On three continents, in a century of mass mobilization and conflict, they promoted strains of nationalism devoid of antagonism, prepared to take part in a general peace. Looking at Tolstoy, Gandhi, and Mandela in sequence, taking into account their letters and conversations as well as the institutions they created or subverted, placing at the centre their treatment of the primal fantasy of political violence, this volume reveals a vital radical tradition which stands outside the conventional categories of twentieth-century history and politics.
