"It is no non-violence if we merely love those that love us.
It is non-violence only when we love those that hate us.
I know how difficult it is to follow this grand law of love, but are not all great and good things difficult to do?
Love of the hater is the most difficult of all, but by the grace of God even this most difficult thing becomes easy to accomplish if we want to do it"

- Mahatma Gandhi

Good one Mountaineer.
By the grace of God....not by personal effort. but by solid commitment, simple heart decision...most read such quotes, like them, understanding their wisdom....but mostly failing to implement it in their lives. Such quotes point at something but their full effectiveness still remains out of reach in other words no substantiall hold on the teaching of such quotes. People feel failure and find it difficult, because they are trying to achieve it with effort and determination

Effort does not do it, self work does not do it...being humble in heart... then grace starts flowing. Grace is ease itself.
