Non-violence of the Weak: We opine that when the mind contains the seeds of violence, but due to some fear, due to some discipline, due to some authority, due to some moral code, and so on, our action in the external field is non-violent, then the non-violent non-cooperation struggle becomes a passiv resistance of the weak or nonviolence of the weak. The action is governed by an ideal which is "to be non-violent", so there is a gap, the psychological time, between the inner violence and outer nonviolence. The outer non-violence affects the surface consciousness and it cannot penetrate the violence of the subconscious. The outer non-violence does not transform the violence in th subconscious. The outer non-violence is an illusion, it is virtual, not real. The non-violence of the weak implies the external non-violence, which is based on an idea; and the idea is based on the past memory, on the past psychological structure, on the ego, the I-consciousness, the "I" and the "me".
Non-Violence of the Brave: If there is action, which is without ideation, which is not the result of experience, which is not governed by thought, then such action is "non-violence of the brave". Non-violence implies to see "what actually is", and not "what should be"; it is to sec the violence in thought, word and action, or in the mind. Non-violence is a state in which the thought process, as psychological time, has completely ceased; this implies that the inner violence has gone to abeyance, and intelligence expresses itself. and the action is spontaneous. Animsa transcends the violent mind; it strengthens the ties of filial love, mutual respect and mutual trust. It is a new dimension of consciousness with which mankind is not acquinted. It is ahimsa of the brave that can solve collective conflicts, national issues, communal squabbles, so ahimsa is always infallible. Ahimsa of the strong can solve all human problems. Ahimsa is a weapon of matchless potency, It is the summum bonum of life.
