L Tolstoy: Christ commands us to love and not to kill.

Much worse than external punishment is the
soul in a state of rebellion against God, is the soul endowed with divine force and abandoning itself to bestial passions; is the soul living in the sight of God and fearing the anger of man, preferring
glory in men's eyes to the peaceful realization of his virtue. There is no greater disaster than that.
It is this that impenitent man carries with him to his grave.
To gain salvation in the highest interpretation, of this word, is to lift up the weary spirit, cure
the suffering soul, give it back its liberty of thought, of conscience, of love. In doing this one finds the salvation for which Christ died; it is for this salvation that the Holy Ghost was given to us, it is towards this salvation that the true Chris tian doctrine is discovering the right road.
(Channing

There's a feeling of cold-hearted deadliness in these military towns. Pensacola

Jesus: you want Heaven, infinite Joy? Be loving. That's it.

Trying to avert total human destruction. This the tragedy that's a great souls of the last century. that was never an option. Only saving One Soul for Joy at a time. Addicting us to Joy was what was needed. Is needed. Tolstoy, Gandhi, Martin Luther King Junior, Sorokin....

Pumping is what the heart does, loving is what soul does for Joy.

When you depart from loving you depart from Creator. Remind me, when does that feel best?

"... the doctrine of Christ is based on the metaphysical principle of love, the supreme law, that should guide us in our daily life and which admits of no exception." L Tolstoy

... Christ's teaching should not be considered as
entirely new, standing out distinctly from former beliefs, it is only the clearer and more precise expression of the principle that previous religions divined and taught instinctively. Thus it is that instead of love being merely one of the virtues, as it was for

I desperately search for what gives me life and I share when I find things.

Deadly tornadoes. Buy more stuff! Who knows how long we've got.

If you want big Joy you need a big reason for living.

The White Christian Fundamentalist GOP is a crime syndicate. What do you expect from them?

It is only necessary to adopt frankly the doc trine of Christ in order to perceive at once the horrible lie in which each and every one of us is living. L Tolstoy

... The Christian doctrine, the real significance of
which we are grasping more and more, teaches that man's mission is to manifest ever better and better the Rule of all; and it is love that proves the pres ence of this Rule in us. That is
law that should guide us is love....

All the ancient religions recognize that love is
the essential condition for a happy existence. The sages of Egypt, the Brahmans, the Stoics, the Bud dhists, etc. declared the principal virtues to be kindness, pity, compassion, and charity; in one word, love in all its forms. The highest of these doctrines, especially those of Buddha and of TaoTse, went as far as recommending love to
every
human being, and for people to return good for evil. However, none of them placed this virtue as a
supreme law that should be the only motive of our acts. This was the distinctive trait of the most recent religion, that of Christ. All previous doc trines proclaimed the love of one's neighbor as one of the virtues; the doctrine of Christ is based on the metaphysical principle of love, the supreme law, that should guide us in our daily life and which admits of no exception....
The law of laws, the law of violence. Leo Tolstoy

Christ founded no church, established no State, made no laws, imposed no government or exterior authority; he simply set himself to write the law of God in the hearts of men in order that they might govern themselves. Herbert Newton.

Seeking the final Tolstoy... Writing. Law of Love, Law of Violence.

I promote Bernie Sanders not because he will win, he will not. And it's too late to matter. But he's good and I promote goodness.

Joy's the true wealth. Happiness, pleasure, long life, stuff... dry dust by comparison

What is needed of my life is to show this. And you?

Some throughout history have found that the life worth suffering and dying for is the joyful life of trying to make a more loving world. LSGIABeing.com

Yes, James, be a turbine. Profoundly weak each revolution stronger collectively at speed. Dec 14

It has been days since a log has been reported and much has transpired but all in line with the previous posts . 

 It may be that this morning, or late in yesterday's journey, .... That Turbine showed up again. 

Why did it show up because a very good day or so ,

Different approach. How would Tolstoy be correct? On what basis? That constructing the world of loving, soul in charge, is the most joyful pursuit no matter what.

If Tolstoy says this at any point James has not yet found it or recognized it. But this is a lens through which James needs to consider Tolstoy now. 

Brilliant, and as they said, horribly flawed. The work of Gandhi and Tolstoy.

At the thought of my own death I don't grieve. Why should I grieve at the death of the human species?

Tolstoy self redeemed. From letters to Gandhi. Loving....

The more I live—and specially now that I am approaching death, the more I feel inclined to express to others the feelings which so strongly move my being, and which, according to my opinion, are of great importance. That is, what one calls nonresistance, is in reality nothing else but the discipline of love undeformed by false interpretation. Love is the aspiration for communion and solidarity with other souls, and that aspiration always liberates the source of noble activities. That love is the supreme and unique law of human life which everyone feels in the depth of one's soul. We find it manifested most clearly in the soul of the infants. Man feels it so long as he is not blinded by the false doctrines of the world.

Leo Tolstoy. Maybe found the truth in the last 20 years. From the book, Gandhi Tolstoy letters.

The Law of Violence and the Law of Love, and in his essay, “The only Commandment,” written a few years before his death, Tolstoy discusses the reasons why educated people, and even those who claim to be religious, ignore this eternal, all embracing law of love. Tolstoy asserts that love purifies the individual and is the essence of life. The fruit of love is happiness. Happiness comes not because man loves his fellowmen but because he loves the source of all, namely God. God dwells in all of us and therefore man recognizes God in himself through love and extends this love to all men. Man needs to let love in and squeeze out hatred, guile and vengeance from his being.

The next week in a Pensacola area using up some of the time needed before travel North can resume in late January.

The hearts are locations, mostly Walmarts, that will allow a one night stay. Return to Slidell area and then heading east very slowly again is the next part of the plan.
