Vinoba Bhave: Mahatma Gandhi's Student

Bhave was a remarkable social transformer in India some 60+ years ago. He has written lots about the central role of fearlessness, and here are a few excerpts from pages from one of his books, 

"Swaraj and Lokniti (State and Politics") - 2014 ed. Sarva Sava Sangh Prakashan. 

On one of his comments here, he talks about when "power" gets all the attention by the elites, the State, etc. in a politics of power--and, the first loss is when replacement is accomplished and "courage and fearlessness" as gift are downplayed, ignored, deleted in such movement of a unhealthy relationship to power-searching. This is a wise critique, I'd say.
