"Bethink Yourselves!" is a powerful essay by Leo Tolstoy urging readers to consider the moral implications of war and violence. Written with characteristic passion and conviction, Tolstoy calls for a rejection of militarism and a return to the principles of Christian love and non-resistance. Tolstoy's work challenges the justifications for war offered by governments and religious institutions, arguing that they are based on falsehoods and self-interest. He implores individuals to recognize their shared humanity and to refuse to participate in acts of violence against one another. A timeless exploration of faith, ethics, and the individual's responsibility in the face of societal injustice, "Bethink Yourselves!" remains a relevant and thought-provoking read for anyone concerned with peace and social change.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
