What does gandhi mean by this quote "send us to prison and we will live there as in paradise"

English
1 answer:
Agata [3.3K]3 years ago

Answer:

By this line, Gandhi states that he will fight to continue to fight with peace and passion, that he won’t let law and oppression break him. By throwing him in the prison, he states the government would only confirm that he is loud enough and that they are reacting violently to his peaceful manners.

Explanation:

<u>Gandhi knew that by sending him to prison, the government would have to accept that his actions are being noticed and that he is doing something that is upsetting them. </u>

This was exactly one of the purposes of Gandhi’s civil disobedience – he wanted to be noticed, he wanted to break the law, he wanted to make sure that he can’t be shut up. By being sent to prison, he would know he is going against the oppressive law and to raise awareness for the cause. Therefore, he is saying that he would know that he is doing the right thing.

Gandhi’s protection was nonviolent and he was persistent in that manner – he was certain he will not hurt anyone in his fight. <u>By being shut away, government proves that they are restrictive and hurtful towards people, that they are reacting violently to peaceful protests. </u>

<u></u>

He wrote that he will live with any punishment and continue abolishing any law that is decided, all while laughing. His line about living in the prison as in a paradise<u> meant that one of his means of protest was not to give up, not to allow the oppressors to scare him</u><u>.</u> Gandhi wanted to fight proudly and with energy, never to give his opponents the satisfaction to break him.

What do the four parts of the Christian biblical narrative (i.e., creation, fall, redemption, and restoration) say about the nat
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The four parts of the Christian narrative- creation, fall, redemption and restoration all lay emphasis on the goodness of God.

Explanation:

Christianity believes in the creation of man through God's want to have an image of his own to be by his side. But the fall (Satan deceiving Eve with the forbidden fruit) led to the banishment of man from the holy Garden of Eden. Even then, God, in his forever loving grace, didn't want to completely abandon his created being so he sent his only son to redeem men from their sins. this is through the crucifixion of Jesus Christ on the cross which is symbolic of the ransom paid by God to deliver his people from Hell. And through this redemption, man is restored to the same position he was put in God's kingdom. Through all these, we can know that God is grace and full of mercy, ever ready to forgive if we go to him with a repenting heart. but in times of sickness and trouble, it is hard to even think of God and his graces. We humans impulsively decide to work out things on our own. It is at times like this that God expects us to go to him and present our worries and troubles in front of him. He is always ready to listen and help in every circumstance. According to the Christian narrative, each and every situation should be taken to God and he alone will give us answers and help, even at times of illness. He alone is capable of providing the help, comfort and hope when mere man can do nothing in comparison to him. And this implies that no matter how serious any situation may be, for God there is nothing that is impossible for him to solve. As long as we are ready to let go and trust him fully, He is capable of doing anything, always ready to help out and set us free.

The creation of man was the most important work of God in that he made someone in his own image, to be exactly like him. But with human greed and distrust for God, disobedience and turning away from God occurred. The fall is evident of man's greed and distrust of God and his ways, even though he himself is the one who had brought us into this world in the first place. This fall is also necessary to know the full wrath of God and also show his soft side for man. Even after the disobedience and  lying, He still sent his only son to redeem man from the peril of forever suffering in Hell. And as though that saving grace wasn't enough already, he also offered man a place in His kingdom, to be a part of his heavenly angel family. In all, he didn't stop loving his creation and is always ready to welcome us with open arms.
