Sinopsis

In "The Spiritual Works of Leo Tolstoy," a compilation of his philosophical essays, letters, and reflections, Tolstoy delves into profound questions concerning morality, faith, and the essence of a meaningful life. His literary style, characterized by introspective depth and ethical clarity, invites readers to ponder the intricate relationship between spiritual belief and daily existence. Rooted in the context of 19th-century Russian society, Tolstoy's work resonates with the existential struggles of individuals seeking purpose amid the challenges of modernity and the moral dilemmas posed by industrialization and materialism. Leo Tolstoy, a towering figure in world literature, was deeply influenced by his own spiritual crises and the experiences of war and peace. His writings frequently reflect his evolution from a successful novelist to a moral philosopher devoted to exploring the nature of love, compassion, and nonviolent resistance. The transformative power of faith profoundly shapes this body of work, showcasing his later abandonment of wealth and societal norms in favor of an ascetic lifestyle that sought to align personal actions with universal moral principles. This collection is an essential read for anyone intrigued by the intersection of literature and spirituality. Tolstoy's insights remain strikingly relevant, urging readers to reflect on their own ethical beliefs and the broader implications of their existence. "The Spiritual Works of Leo Tolstoy" serves as a guiding light for those navigating the complexities of the human experience.

Aggression War and Conflict -...

Bhikkhu Khantipālo

Aggression is rampant almost everywhere nowadays, sometimes in its legal and approved form and increasingly in illegal activities. Where it is approved, it may be called “getting on in the world,” that is, stepping on others’ heads so that you can get to the top. This is success in a worldly sense, but not in a Buddhist one. It is also approved of for men (though not by them for women!) as being a mark of mastery and virility, yet it will never bring happiness. For if people are mastered forcibly, then how will happiness follow for the one who inflicts suffering? The rationale is that “progress,” that materialistic god so widely worshipped, will not come about unless force and power are used. But this argument does not take into account the fact that, sooner or later, what is won by aggression will surely be lost through conflict. 
 
The three essays in Bodhi Leaves No. 108 are: 
1. Dealing with Aggression 
2. War and Peace 
3. Settling Conflicts
