watch Gandhi

There are plots in which Gandhi launched a textile movement and burned British clothes. In his speech he mentioned resistance to British expansion into overseas markets.

Thinking of Acheng's "Culture is not MSG", he said that the war in the late Qing Dynasty was only because the British wanted to do business with the Qing Dynasty. I think there is a kind of literati innocence here. Gandhi's vision and vision as a statesman is higher, wider and deeper. (Between two independent sovereigns of disproportionate strength) One side's rush to expand overseas markets is a way of capitalist colonization, not equal business. It keeps dumping its own commodities to grab resources and wealth, and the actual result is to completely suppress the development of the other side's national industry, which is actually a colonization of the destination of commodities.

In culture is not MSG, Acheng also mentioned the greatness of businessmen and the great psychological quality. I think businessmen and politicians have something in common. They are dealing with people and dealing with people. One sells an idea, the other sells a product, and both make people believe in them. But good politicians have a bigger mind, because good politicians are altruistic, not self-interested, and they are for the common good of the world, not for profit maximization. Businessmen and politicians must have a good psychological quality and mind to deal with the evil people in society, the evil of people. They have to learn how to face villains, hooligans, hatred and anger. A movement of non-violence and non-cooperation, there is an oriental wisdom and spirit of self-sacrifice.

Think about it, India is where Buddhism was born.

In this world, even if there is no foreign oppression, there will always be one group of people oppressing another group of people. Nationalism is a great banner against oppression, but what then? More evil is the oppression of fellow man by fellow man, or we can put aside nationality and religion, it is evil and unreasonable for anyone to oppress anyone, all men are created equal.

Gandhi quotes

  • Gandhi: I want to welcome you all. Every one of you. We have no secrets. Let us begin by being clear... about General Smuts' new law. All Indians must now be fingerprinted... like criminals. Men and women. No marriage other than a Christian marriage is considered valid. Under this act our wives and mothers are whores. And every man here is a bastard.

    Kahn: He has become quite good at this.

    Gandhi: And a policeman passing an Indian dwelling, I will not call them homes, may enter and demand the card of any Indian woman whose dwelling it is.

  • Nehru: Think of what you can do by living, that you cannot do by dying... What do you want?

    Gandhi: That the fighting will stop. That you make me believe it will never start again.
