"The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong."
Today's Question
Did you overlook a small mistake today? Was it true understanding, or just comfort in avoiding conflict?
What the master of non-violence calls 'Strong'
To Gandhi, forgiveness was not cowardly endurance but a powerful moral act of breaking the chain of revenge when one has the power to overwhelm the opponent.
Despite the oppression he faced, he insisted 'An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind.' To him, forgiveness was not about justifying the perpetrator but about freeing one's own soul from the cycle of violence.
