[@NetIdentity]

Tolstoy is undoubtedly one of the greatest thinkers and by far more saintly than those spiritualists of modern times who condone wars and foment disharmony in the name of religion. The more I read Tolstoy, the more I admire him and the more I love Jesus Christ! Love, Light and Nonviolence to all ❤️🕉☮️

[@smkxodnwbwkdns8369]

Not true. Do securlists and atheists of average intelligence often mock Jesus or consider religion “stupid”? Yes. But I can’t think of an intellectual, philosopher, or poet, past and present, that is of any importance, that doesn’t take Jesus seriously and respect him for his genius of moral philosophy which it is.

[@yacoobh9423]

Leo Tolstoy was very big writer, teacher and seeker of truth. Some people try to criticize him, i am surprised where they find such words... He was master of introspection, seeking after truth, seeking after the ways to remove inner imbalances and how to face them. We think that we are intelligent people and judge other people very quickly. We forgot that Leo Tolstoy was also very learned and intelligent man and further he was very deep person diving ind his own soul very deep. We should try to understand that real honesty, courage and manhood are very important for us. I wish that we would have more people like Leo Tolstoy living amongst us.

yacobH - you are right Tolstoy did his best to practice what he preached. He and others saved the Dukhobori from the Tsar and the Orthodox church. During the famine in Samara he took medicine food and clothing and saw that they reached the hungry. The descendants of his family's serfs defended Yasnaya Polyana during the .Revolution and protected Tolstoy's surviving children and widow.

[@raewynurwin4256]

@@JamesDavis-kc6kk yes, I have rarely read of such deep conviction about his journey. I read in a reply on another utube a woman stating he was a coward, re his consideration of suicide, he said he was too cowardly. I believe he knew it was an easy way out however chose not to hurt his family in doing so.He lived by Jesus profound statements.Whatever you do to another you do to me, in effect the right or wrongdoing never stands alone that there are always repercussions.

[@JustinPavoni]

One year later and I am falling short. Recommitting myself.

[@zero-wy6gs]

@@JustinPavoni I believe that's what Jesus said. We should obey Him, but we fail eventually (not that we like the fact of disobeying). So, if we disobey, why would we judge other people? They disobey, and we do the same, each one in his own way. I think that that's what Dostoievski said in Brothers Karamazov, I understood him this way "in order to live at peace, we must forgive others, just like we need to be forgiven. That is Heaven"

[@JustinPavoni]

@@zero-wy6gs I was just talking about Dostoevsky today. I need to read him still. I agree with what you (or he) said though about falling short and forgiving others and heaven. That’s how I feel about it as well. It’s an inner peace that comes from aligning behavior with the teaching Tolstoy pretty well describes in this volume.

[@zero-wy6gs]

@@JustinPavoni as for me, I have to read Tolstoy's "воскресение" (I think it is resurrection in English). The problem is that I'm from Brazil and I have to read it in Russian, and it takes some time It is his last big novel, and I'm sure there is something great in this book Anyway, Dostoievski said something like "everyone is guilty about everything". Our sins are capable of harming everyone. The only way to sin and not harming others at the same time is to be forgiven (that's my opinion)

An amazing thinker- much to learn about how we can evolve further as higher animals and transcend our basic programming.

Thank you for this audiobook. I am so happy to learn of Count Tolstoy's journey of enlightenment, epiphanies, understanding which revolutionized his life, and which understanding answered the eternal questions, gave him joy and happiness. I too came late to the party after years of criticizing religion, and had in many, many ways to learn and grow in order to understand what I was hearing and seeing. I was fortunate to have experienced many of the same new understanding.and find the detailed record of his thoughts and feelings as they encountered the Gospel and doctrine a wonderful gift.

+Airan Skye I think I agree. Depending what you mean by "Condemn"

[@xXairanskyeXx]

ramon carroll we judge others as being wrong...years ago after an encounter with a Lakota Heyoka...I began seeking things common with religions and spirituality...it has been an interesting journey...we focus on differences which consists of changes from ancient teachings...the truth is in the common

[@eternalchilofgod3]

+Airan Skye Okay. I understand you. I would not say that judging others as being wrong is equal to us "condemning" them though. I have studied many other religions as well. I see similarities and I see glaring differences also. One thing that I have found to be compelling about the faith I now follow, which is faith in the MOST HIGH God Yahweh and his son Yeshua, is the fact that they seem to make claims that none of the other religions do and I also find that none of those religions successfully challenge the claims Yahweh and Yeshua make concerning themselves. Considering what I believe about the scriptures I would EXPECT there to be similarities in the different beliefs. They all come from the same place. However what I see is similar to the game of telephone. Variations began to appear and overtime some lost the original message and intent completely.

[@xXairanskyeXx]

you are right Ramon...except not just some but most lost the original message and intent completely

[@eternalchilofgod3]

+Airan Skye I cannot deny that Airan. I pray have more opportunity to speak with people of different religions. I am sure that those with a sincere heart to seek God would become believers in Christ upon hearing his true message. :D

[@megavide0]

1:40:14 >> The precept, *‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth,’* was the commandment given by God to *Moses*. The precept, *‘I say to you, do not resist evil,’* was _a new __#commandment__ that reversed the first_. Had I considered the doctrine of #Christ simply, without the theological theory I had imbibed from my earliest childhood, I should have understood the true sense of these simple words. I should have seen that *Christ sets aside the old law and gives a new one*. But it had been instilled into me that _Christ did not reject the Law of Moses - that, on the contrary, he confirmed it to the least jot and tittle, and amplified it_. The seventeenth and eighteenth verses of the *_fifth chapter of St. Matthew_*, which seem to confirm that assertion, had, in my former studies of the gospel, struck me by their obscurity, and had raised doubts in my mind. On reading the *Old Testament*, especially the last *books of Moses*, in which so many _trivial, useless, and even cruel_ #lawsare laid down, each preceded by the words, ‘And God said to Moses,’ it seemed passing strange to me that Christ should have confirmed such laws; His doing so seemed incomprehensible. But I then left the problem unsolved. I blindly believed the teaching of my childhood: that these commandments were inspired by the Holy Ghost, that they were in perfect harmony with each other, that Christ confirmed the Law of Moses, and that He amplified and completed it. I could, indeed, never clearly explain to myself wherein the amplification lay, nor how the striking opposition, so obvious to all, between the verses 17-20 and the words ‘but I say to you’ could be harmonized. But when I at last really understood the clear and simple _meaning of Christ’s doctrine_, I saw that these two #commandments were *in direct opposition to each other*; that there could be no question of harmony between them, or of the one being an amplification of the other; that it was necessary to accept either the one or the other, and that the interpretation of verses 17-20 of the _fifth chapter of St. Matthew_, which, as I have already said, had struck me by their want of clarity, was _erroneous_. On a second reading of the same verses 17-20, which had seemed so unintelligible to me, their meaning *_flashed_* full upon me. This again was not the result of my having discovered anything new, or having made any alteration of the words; it was due solely to my having cast aside the _false interpretation_ that had been given to them. Christ says (Matthew 5:17-19), _‘Do not think that I have come to destroy the law or (the teaching of) the prophets. I have not come to destroy, but to fulfill. For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle (the least particle) shall in no way pass from the law, until all is fulfilled.’_ And (verse 20) he adds, _‘Except your righteousness shall _*_exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees_*_, you shall in no case enter the kingdom of heaven.’_ Christ means by these words, *_‘I have not come to destroy the eternal law, for the fulfillment of which your books and prophecies are written; but I have come to teach you how to fulfill that eternal law. I do not speak of the law that your teachers, the Pharisees, call the law of God, but of the eternal law, which is less liable to change than heaven and earth.’_*

[@raewynurwin4256]

Interesting how so many Christian's I've talked to about this scripture have deemed it a typo, lol. They could not conceive life without laws that rule our lives.I couldn't either initially however it speaks to eternal law I believe. That's the pearl, anyhow think it was Gandhi who said if we want to see change in the world, begin with self. I'm 72 and deep in my own existential crisis for past 6mths. Given religion away, Vatican edicts no longer rule my mind. I don't know if there is God or no God but have lived my life as there is one.My conscience is the conduit to my God, its worked for 65yrs I'm still working through GUILT. Reading Alan Watts statement ' Christianity institutionalized guilt as a virtue' was the epiphany I needed to resurrect myself. Do Not Resist Evil, massively mindblowing, I'm working on it. I keep hearing the song He ain't heavy he's my brother.Difficult when you dont like your narcissistic brother, I should take another look at this because he is the one that brought about my crisis. Maybe I need to thank him one day for being my catalyst in seeking serenity. Thanks for listening was good to purge my sin.Arohanui from New Zealand.

I would easily dismiss this before, but in Buddhism there is this Simile of the Saw that says basically the exact same. Here it's short I can attach it here: Monks, even if bandits were to carve you up savagely, limb by limb, with a two-handled saw, he among you who let his heart get angered even at that would not be doing my bidding. Even then you should train yourselves: 'Our minds will be unaffected and we will say no evil words. We will remain sympathetic, with a mind of good will, and with no inner hate. We will keep pervading these people with an awareness imbued with good will and, beginning with them, we will keep pervading the all-encompassing world with an awareness imbued with good will - abundant, expansive, immeasurable, free from hostility, free from ill will.' That's how you should train yourselves.

As for individuals, the Bible teaches that believers are to respond to evil with good, not to react with vengeance or revenge in mind. Anger is okay, rage is not.
