Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject Philosophy - Philosophy Beyond Occidental Tradition, grade: A, Hindu University of America (Hindu University of America), course: Term Paper, 9 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Formal gliedert sich die Arbeit in drei Teile. Zunachst werden die wichtigsten Konzepte von Gandhis Denken geklart (Satya: Wahrheit, Ahimsa: Nicht-Gewalt, Satyagraha, etc.) Anschliessend wird der Einfluss bestimmter heiliger Schriften und bedeutender Persoenlichkeiten auf Gandhis philosophisches und religioeses Denken aufgezeigt. Schliesslich wird Gandhi mit Sokrates, Aristoteles, Kant und Kirkegaard, etc. verglichen. Den Schluss bildet eine Sammlung von wichtigen Gandhi-Zitaten. Im Folgenden nur zwei: The immediate service of human beings becomes a necessary part of the endeavour, simply because the only way to find God is to see him in his creation and be one with it. I know, that I can not find him apart form humanity.
It is possible to recognise the existence of God to a certain extent through the use of reason. There is a scheme of things in the universe, an irreversible law that governs everything. In the midst of death, life continues; in the midst of untruth, truth continues to prevail; in the midst of injustice, justice endures; in the midst of darkness, light continues to exist. Whereas everything that sourrounds me is subject to eternal change, at the same time an active living force exists that does not undergo alteration. As far as I believe, there is no encounter within the beyond, as we have it in the present. When a single droplets vanish, they participate again in the majesty of the ocean where they belong. They die seperately, to be reunited with the ocean. (Die Arbeit ist auf Englisch.)
