"Truly I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or farms, for My sake and for the gospel's sake; but that he shall receive a hundred times as much now in the present age, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and farms, along with persecutions...." Mark 10:28.

"For the Joy of it, Live your Life on the line for the least of these our Family; for Life can be found nowhere else, ever."

"BUNKER BUSTER" NONVIOLENT ACTION: THE DEFINITIVE ESSAY

THE DEFINITIVE ARTICLE ON "BUNKER BUSTER" NONVIOLENT ACTION:

LOVE IN ACTION - THE ULTIMATE WEAPON

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gandhi (paraphrase):
"What do I mean by "nonviolence?"
I mean by nonviolence the Love of a Mother for her Child.
I would have called it that but the word Love
has been corrupted beyond redemption."

"Love cannot remain passive
in the face of suffering."
Teresa of Calcutta

"If you love the poor
you WILL share their fate."
Oscar Romero

"Love is Universal
or it is not Love."
Start Loving

Is there anything an
individual can still do?

You will find the comment in the book on Gandhi edited / prefaced by Thomas Merton. If you get to the final source please let me know.

It looks like it's probably from Gandhi's "Non-Violence in Peace and War" (ISBN 0824003756), which is rare enough that I probably won't run across a copy for awhile. Thanks for the lead.
