DISCLAIMER: I want to state that by no means the post below is an attempt to spread or promote any philosophies. I am just expressing my distortions towards "my" truth which everybody has (ALL). By no mean I am responsible on how the reader respond, I leave to interpretation of each individual to respond by any range of emotions they possess fear/love and I accept them very well 
etc.
The post below is an opportunity for those who follow love to accept all and for me to accept self we are accepting indeed, it serves both adept as it accelerates each toward his/her polarities, evolution, self knowing and self accepting Now if the reader still think that I might *exhibit elements of deception and manipulative thinking *generate fear *reject or discourage universal love *encourage or promote control of self or others which is his/her own interpretation uniquely his/hers of my truth, I will ask him/her not to read the post below. If the reader is understanding, accepting and wise on his evolutionary path may he read with an open heart and not judge. Thank you(That was a long "damn" disclaimer)
The thing I wanted to point out is this - Do you eat chickens ? Have you ever ate a chicken in a fast food restaurant ?
Back then(in my family) we were killing the chickens(food) we were eating, it's even more respectful towards life. But here this "hypocrisy" again, you let to others the dirtying of their hands to bask yourself in your loathing of "O I am aware of the Creatrix, you guys are just crawling, keep crawling... you limited dirty **** (LOL)". To me it's hypocritical, there is someone who is killing/slaughering the food you eat on auto-pilot, would you dare tell him how limited he is.
If so I urge you to even for one week kill the food you eat to respect and accept those who do it for you. And you'll find that however many Chickens fly they still end up in your plate. I will say the same thing with veganism, if you eat any kind of plants and non exclusively fruits that you grew yourself you are hurting a living being. All hypocrites
.
See, there would have been no vegans if previous human carnivores didn't build this society, you are just enjoying the hardworking/privilege of our forefather and spiting at their legacy while still using all their tools which was brought up by the very path you despise.
But, of course, each may choose their own path.
I am starting to gain an affection for you
friend (LOL). Now to the main dish with my bro in darkness Ghandi.
" Behind his carefully crafted image is a calculating, cunning leader who was deft at playing communities against each other for the benefit of Savarna (caste Hindu) privilege."
His goal wasn't the liberation of all but only of his kind, if this liberation had happened to free others he would have been fighting against it.
GANDHI WAS UNCATEGORICALLY ANTI-BLACK: " Gandhi instead promoted racial segregation as the strategy to uplift Indians often pitting Indians and Blacks under colonial rule.. It was his belief that Indians were better than blacks who he referred to by the slur “Kaffir”."
Here is one of his quote: “Ours is one continued struggle against degradation sought to be inflicted upon us by the European, who desire to degrade us to the level of the raw Kaffir, whose occupation is hunting and whose sole ambition is to collect a certain number of cattle to buy a wife with, and then pass his life in indolence and nakedness.” Pretty inclusive right
"This idea that Indians were better than native Africans pervades his writings on Apartheid where he writes consistently of the need to mentally and physically separate Indians from Indigenous Africans." Yes separation indeed.
"Another telling example of his anti-blackness is where he makes the distinction that most Indians were not indigenous.":
An other of his quote: “The statute books describe the Indians as belonging to“the aboriginal or semi-barbarous race of Asia”, while as a matter of fact there is hardly one Indian in South Africa belonging to the aboriginal stock. The Santhals of Assam will be as useless in South Africa as the natives of that country. “ This guy had the audacity to talk like that in South Africa, wow a truly Bold guy.
"He argues against colonial attempts to equate Indians with indigenous Africans because in his view, indigenous peoples were “barbarous and useless.” Typically STS or STO ?
"Gandhi cheered on the British as they waged a war on the black Zulus. During the 1906 Bambatha Uprising the Zulus of South Africa rebelled against the colonial British government". "Gandhi was adamant about supporting the British during this rebellion and even actively pushed the British to recruit Indian troops."
He urged the Indian population in South Africa to join the war through his columns in Indian Opinion: “If the Government only realised what reserve force is being wasted, they would make use of it and give Indians the opportunity of a thorough training for actual warfare.” says the guy who was for non violence.
"The British, however, refused to commission Indians as army officers. Nonetheless, they accepted Gandhi’s offer to let a detachment of Indians volunteer as a stretcher bearer corps to treat wounded British soldiers."
Another one of his quote: “I believe that if Hindu society has been able to stand, it is because it is founded on the Caste system. … A community which can create the Caste system must be said to possess unique power of organization. … To destroy the Caste system and adopt the Western European social system means that Hindus must give up the principle of hereditary occupation which is the soul of the Caste system. [The] hereditary principle is an eternal principle. To change it is to create disorder. … It will be a chaos if every day a Brahmin is to be changed into a Shudra and a Shudra is to be changed into a Brahmin. The Caste system is a natural order of society."
Nirmal Kumar Bose, one of Gandhi’s closest associates to write a letter to Kishorlal G. Mashruwala, another of Gandhi’s close colleagues, saying, “When I first learnt about Gandhi’s experiment in which a girl took off her clothes and lay under the same cover with him and he tried to find out if any sexual feeling was evoked in him or his companion, I felt genuinely surprised. Personally, I would not tempt myself like that and more than that, my respect for [women] would prevent me from treating her as an instrument in my experiment.”
Now I know that you guys dearly love your heroes and can't believe how villainous they are now I'll post his quote with the reference you can go look for yourself: ("SADISTIC LAUGHTER EVEN MORE LAUGHTER HAHAHAHAHAHA")

“It was a gross injustice to seek to place Indians in the same class as the Kaffirs.”
Reference: (Vol. V. The Collected Works of Mahatma Gandhi (Electronic Book) (Vol. 98 volumes). New Delhi: Publications Division Government of India, p. 226)
‘Kaffir’ is an extremely derogatory term used to describe the indigenous Afrikan/Black people of uMzantsi Afrika (South Africa), and Gandhi was aware that the term was as derogatory as the term ‘Coolie’, which was applied to Indians and to which he took much offence (See Willem Adolf Joubert and T. Johan Scott (1981). The Law of South Africa, vol. 6. Cape Town Berea: Butterworths, pp. 251–254.).
26 May, 1906
“Thanks to the Court’s decision, only clean Indians or Coloured people other than Kaffirs can now travel by the trams.”
(CWMG. Vol. V, p. 235)
6 November, 1906
“Boer leaders […] should not consider Indians as being on the same level as Kaffirs.”
(CWMG, Vol. VI, p. 112)
16 November, 1906
“[T]he Boer mind […] refused to recognize the evident and sharp distinctions that undoubtedly exist between British Indians and the Kaffir races in South Africa.”
(CWMG. Vol. VI, p. 95)

“If registration is made compulsory, there will be no difference between Indians and Kaffirs…”
(CWMG. Vol. VII, p. 395)
12 December, 1907
“Compulsory registration is recognised as signifying nothing less than the reduction of British Indians to the status of the Kaffir.”
(CWMG. Vol. VII, p. 447)
July 3, 1907
“Kaffirs are as a rule uncivilised – the convicts even more so. They are troublesome, very dirty and live almost like animals. […] The reader can easily imagine the plight of the poor Indian thrown into such company!”
(CWMG Vol. VIII, p. 199)
2 February, 1908
“The British rulers take us to be so lowly and ignorant that they assume that, like the Kaffirs who can be pleased with toys and pins, we can also be fobbed off with trinkets.”
(CWMG. Vol. VIII, p. 167)
7 March, 1908
“Many of the Native prisoners are only one degree removed from the animal and often created rows and fought among themselves in their cells.”
(CWMG. Vol. VIII, p. 183)
3 July, 1908
“We were then marched off to a prison intended for Kaffirs. There, our garments were stamped with the letter ‘N,’ which meant that we were being classed with the Natives. We were all prepared for hardships, but not quite for this experience. We could understand not being classed with the whites, but to be placed on the same level with the Natives seemed too much to put up with.
(CWMG. Vol. VIII, p. 198)
21 March, 1908
“There is nothing for it but to let ourselves be classed with the Kaffirs and starve.”
(CWMG. Vol. VIII, pp. 218-19)
16 January, 1909
“I observed with regret that some Indians were happy to sleep in the same room as the Kaffirs […] We may entertain no aversion to Kaffirs, but we cannot ignore the fact that there is no common ground between them and us in the daily affairs of life.”
(CWMG. Vol. IX, p. 257)
16 January, 1909
“I have, though, resolved in my mind on an agitation to ensure that Indian prisoners are not lodged with Kaffirs or others.”
(CWMG. Vol. IX, p. 257)
[i]Again, we see the blatant “Coolie/Kaffir” hypocrisy in the following quote by Gandhi:
19 July, 1909
“We were locked up with the Kaffirs. There was not a single European officer who described us as Indians. We were called “sammies” or “coolies”.
(CWMG. Vol. X, p. 34) (emphasis added)
8 October, 1909
“We do not get there the food that we are used to, and are classified with the Kaffirs.”
(CWMG. Vol. X, p. 158)
It should be noted at this point that Gandhi lived till 78 and at the time of the preceding quote, he was 40, making him middle-aged (and certainly not in his mid-30s as asserted by Guha). Those who suffer from impropaGandhi-induced cognitive dissonance, who say he was only an anti-Black/anti-Afrikan racist when he was “young”, are being quite disingenuous. Let’s continue:
2 December, 1910
“Some Indians do have contacts with Kaffir women. I think such contacts are fraught with grave danger. Indians would do well to avoid them altogether.”
(CWMG. Vol. X, p. 414)
10 March, 1911
“If the Regulations provide for Kaffir Police, we can fight the Regulations.”
(CWMG. Vol. XI, p. 266)
25 October, 1913
“I saw it reported that we might even ask the Kaffirs to strike. But such is not our intention at all.”
(CWMG. Vol XIII, p. 385)
Now if this isn't enough I do not know what might be, those are hard facts. Now I'll say the same thing with Nelson Mandela he was STS too the only difference between the two is that Mandela had much more mastery of his craft. For example he said this about Ghandi: “India is the Mahatma's country of birth; South Africa his country of adoption.” - Mandela considered Gandhiji as one of his teachers and said that he called for non-violent protest for as long as it was effective. ...
Now let me ask you one thing what brought Mandela out prison, Violence or non violence ?
Winnie Mandela was flowing the blood of the Boers this is what brought Mandela outside of his prison. The Boers had a dilemma when they saw that the South Africans was determined to all die for the cause, the dilemma was either we let this man that talk about peace everyday or we still risk it with people that are ready to lose everything. Back then South Africans were like the Kamikaze so Boer felt Pearl Harbor effect over 9000(LOL), they were forced to choose the less bloody hand. At the same time the native land of the Boer Germany was going through infighting over the wall. Mandela was liberated just months after the destruction of the wall. Destruction of the wall November 9, 1989, Mandela liberation February 11, 1990. So no, it wasn't a coincidence. They didn't liberate him because they thought what they did was wrong but because their supply was cut. The Boers knew they were a minority while all the African countries were ready to supply Black South Africans especially Cuba with Fidel Castro and the soviet union. You have to understand that the Soviet Union was struggling in the Cold War with USA, which ended just one year after Mandela liberation December 26, 1991 this was also the end of the Soviet Union. All those dates aren't coincidental.
So many naive souls think that apartheid was ended on a common understanding from the Boers on what they did wrong and a sudden epiphany for a just cause(we are all human), no, it wasn't. Boers now faced annihilation so they were forced to strategic peace. Once out of prison Mandela will divorce from Winnie. While Winnie was for an all out annihilation and not form of peace whatsoever with their enemies, Mandela was for a long progressive careful planned domination. In his effort to distanciante from her and to keep his carefully crafted image, he withdrew completely from the political stage in facade.
A different route was taken by the One you call Mugabe.
All revolution had always been made in blood and led by aristocratic bloodlines, wether French revolutions, Anti-apartheid, Cuba all leaders were always from kingship or noble bloodline, Mandela isn't an exception, he was a descendant of a Zulu king . If I am wrong give me one revolution that wasn't led by an aristocrat or that hadn't have bloodshed in it. You won't find one.[/i]
CWMG: Collected Works Of Mahatma Gandhi - "The 100-volume series brings Gandhi straight to the readers through his words and showcase the evolution of the man into Mahatma over the course of his struggles and his journey. Right from his student years in India and London, his stay and struggles in South Africa(LOL), his return to India and leadership of the Indian freedom movement. In these volumes, we find cables, telegrams, appeals, petitions, memorials, notes, silence-day notes, articles in journals, speeches, interviews, talks, dialogues, letters, etc. CWMG gives an account of many a battle that Gandhi fought and the revolutions he conducted on several fronts – social, economic, cultural, religious, political… all at the same time" (LOL, this is fun LOL) So this is my source, his own words and of those who were his friends/associates.
etc.Quote:attempt to discuss, share, and examine this category of information—whether anecdotal or abstract—with the aim of understanding it in terms of spiritual evolution, polarity, self-knowing, and self-accepting

Quote:I'm sad to say, this is just propaganda. One who knows love in its deep sense knows the heights conscious awareness of love of the Creatrix can bring one to. Separation is sadly limited in this way. Chickens can fly, while those who venerate only themselves must crawl the entire way to the revelation of one's highest self.
The thing I wanted to point out is this - Do you eat chickens ? Have you ever ate a chicken in a fast food restaurant ?
Back then(in my family) we were killing the chickens(food) we were eating, it's even more respectful towards life.
