Summary: Episode Description: In this episode, the morning session continues with Father John sharing the fundamental teachings of Mahatma Gandhi and Jesus. He presents Gandhi's five basic points: "1) Nonviolence implies as complete self-purification as is humanly possible. 2) The strength of nonviolence is in exact proportion to the ability, not the will, of the nonviolent person to inflict violence. 3) Nonviolence without exception is superior to violence. 4) There is no such thing as defeat in nonviolence. 5) The ultimate end of nonviolence is total victory." Father John then recounts the teachings of Jesus Christ primarily drawing from the Sermon on the Mount, Matthew 5,6, and 7. The session concludes with retreat participants offering comments and asking questions. For Series description and Teacher BIOs, please visit Part 1.
