Light for the Journey: Seeing Truth from Different Angles: Gandhi’s Lesson in Tolerance

Spread the love

Mahatma Gandhi’s wisdom reminds us that peace begins not in agreement, but in understanding — in the humble art of seeing through another’s eyes.

The golden rule of conduct is mutual toleration, seeing that we will never all think alike and we shall see Truth in fragment and from different angles of vision. ~ Mahatma Gandhi

La regla de oro de la conducta es la tolerancia mutua, ya que nunca pensaremos todos igual y veremos la Verdad fragmentada y desde diferentes ángulos de visión. ~ Mahatma Gandhi

行为的黄金法则是相互宽容,因为我们永远不会有同样的想法,我们将从碎片化和不同的视角看待真理。〜圣雄甘地

Reflection:

Gandhi’s words invite us to embrace one of life’s greatest acts of courage — mutual toleration. No two minds or hearts will ever see the world in exactly the same way, and that’s not a weakness of humanity but its wonder. Each of us carries only a fragment of Truth, refracted through our own experience. When we listen, rather than insist, the pieces come together, forming a more radiant whole. True peace grows when we value diversity of thought as a mirror that expands our own vision. Tolerance is not passive; it’s an active, generous openness to the many ways light shines through others.
