________________ The Hues of Comradeship If the filthy water of drainage flows into the stream of the Ganges, it is transformed into Gangajala—the holy water of the Ganges. But the self-same holy water, if it passed into a gutter, would be designated as filthy water of the drainage. Similarly, an evil person, if he conjoined with the better sort, would gradually stand accredited as a noble person; whereas a noble person colluding with a vicious fellow, will be dubbed a veritable rogue! Ye! Mark the strange hues of comradeship! The Glory of Non-Violence There is nothing in the world so powerful as nonviolence. What prowess abides in this little wordAhimsa--non-violence—that all the fine sentiments of the world must spring therefrom: The entire world is erected on the basework of non-violence. Love is born of it, universal compassion must flow from it, the urge for the world's upliftment is imaged in it! Ah! the glory of non-violence!
