...live and move and have my being
"What I have been striving and pining to achieve these thirty years, -is self-realization, to see God face to face, to attain Moksha (the footnoted definition is freedom from birth and death... the closest English equivalent is salvation). I live and move and have my being in this goal. All that I do by the way of speaking and writing, and all my ventures in the political field, are directed to this same end."
Gandhi
In reading Gandhi's autobiography, this statement regarding his motivation behind his actions struck me as poignant. It also causes me to look inward at my own motivations and how they align with my faith in Christ.
