Much inspiration for the Alternatives to Violence Course came from John Looney's study of the life of Mohandas Gandhi. In Session Six you will find much about Gandhi's philosophy. Here is one such quotation:
My experience, daily growing stronger and richer, tells me that there is no peace for individuals or for nations without practicing truth and nonviolence to the uttermost extent possible for ’man.’ The policy of retaliation has never succeeded.
Also in Session Six read and hear sample "Prayers For Peace", from most religions of the world.
