Non-possession is allied to non-stealing. A thing not originally stolen must nevertheless be classified as stolen property, if we possess it without needing it.
Possession implies provision for the future. A seeker after Truth, a follower of the law of Love, cannot hold anything against tomorrow. God never stores for tomorrow. He never creates more than what is strictly needed for the moment. If therefore, we repose faith in His Providence, we should rest assured that He will give us every day our daily bread, meaning everything that we require….
Our ignorance or negligence of the Divine Law, which gives to get from day to day his daily bread and no more, has give rise to inequalities with all the miseries attendant upon them. The rich have a superfluous store of things which they do not need and which are therefore neglected and wasted, while millions are starved to death for want of sustenance.
If each retained possession of only what he needed, no one would be in want, and all would live in contentment. As it is, the rich are discontented no less than the poor the poor man would rain become a millorare, and the millionaire a multi-millionaire.
In the late 19th century, an unassuming young attorney in South Africa named Mohandas Gandhi began to express his own doubts about the modern Anglo system of law used by the British Empire. His campaigns of civil disobedience caught the attention of scholars in the West, but his view of property has received relatively little attention.
Most scholars have focused more broadly on Gandhi’s conception of the environment or economy, but only a handful of scholars have attempted to understand Gandhi’s thought on property law.
In fact, Joan Bondurant went as far as saying that Gandhi’s detachment from material possessions and practice of non-possession are the very negation of the institution of property.
“Therefore, the challenge to create a theory of property from Gandhi’s non possessive philosophy can seem a formidable one. However, Gandhi’s core doctrines provide a broad canvas upon which a non-possessive theory of property can rest.
Gandhi clearly reflect his courage, commitment, convictions, and faith in “Truth is God” irrespective of its consequences.
He, who is clean within cannot remain unclean without. Any tainted person could have taken the advantage of liberties to satisfy the camal desire but for Gandhi sex was not a mere physical interaction it’s beyond it. His courage to speak the truth shows his will to remain faithful to his wife and his staunch faith in God. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
It also reflects his love, care and trust on his wife and himself. Today individual and family norms and values are breaking down. Mother, sister, daughter and wife are no safer, daily thousands of innocent girl is being raped, molested and harassed. A man who behaves like a beast is worse than the beast.
Today we have many civilized beast in the form of human Gandhi was more modern than today’s generations, modernity should not be judged from flimsy clothes and cosmetics wearing on the body but how beautiful you are from within.
How Gandhi managed to speak the truth? What was the reason behind that? Gandhi was born and brought up in an electric religious environment. His parents were deeply spiritual and God fearing. Parents and family plays a significant role in socializing of child and shaping his personality.
What type of children you want? An honest, sincere, loving, caring, understanding and hard working than you have to live a life with all these qualities because for your child “Seeing is Believing”.
