Aurobindo: erinevus redaktsioonide vahel

* [[Venelased]] on kummaline segu tugevusest ja [[nõrkus]]est. Nende intellektis on [[kirg]], ütleme, et neil on kirglik [[intellekt]]. Nende emotsionaalne seis on hajevil ja rahutu, kuid selle taga on miski väga peen ja psüühiline, ehkki nende [[hing]] ei ole kuigi terve. Ja sellepärast mul pole õigust öelda, et [[Gandhi]] on vene [[kristlane]], kuna ta on nii kohutavalt kuiv. Tal on intellektuaalne kirg ja suur moraalne [[tahtejõud]], kuid ta on kuivem kui venelased. [[Kannatus]]e [[evangeelium]], mida ta jutustab, pärineb [[Venemaa]]lt rohkem kui kuskilt mujalt [[Euroopa]]s... Teised kristlikud rahvad seda ei usu. Kõige rohkem võivad nad sellest mõelda, kuid venelastel on see veres. Nad teevad vea, jutlustades kannatuste evangeeliumi, kuid ka meie [[India]]s teeme vea, jutlustades ''vairagya''<nowiki>'</nowiki>t [põlgust maailma vastu].

** {{halliga|The Russians are a queer mixture of strength and weakness. They have got a passion in their intellect, say, a passionate intellect. They have a distracted and restless emotional being, but there is something behind it which is very fine and psychic, though their soul is not very healthy. And therefore I am not right in saying that Gandhi is a Russian Christian, because he is so very dry. He has got the intellectual passion and a great moral will-force, but he is more dry than the Russians. The gospel of suffering that he is preaching has its root in Russia as nowhere else in Europe... other Christian nations don't believe in it. At the most they have it in the mind, but the Russians have got it in their very blood. They commit a mistake in preaching the gospel of suffering, but we also commit in India a mistake in preaching the idea of vairagya [disgust with the world]. }}
