About this book

"The Kingdom of God Is Within You" by graf Leo Tolstoy is a philosophical treatise first published in 1894. Banned in Russia, this Christian anarchist work presents Tolstoy's radical interpretation of Christianity centered on universal love and absolute nonviolence. Drawing on the Sermon on the Mount, Tolstoy argues for dismantling all violent institutions, including governments and churches that support war. His vision profoundly influenced figures like Mohandas Gandhi, who credited the book with shaping his philosophy of passive resistance that would eventually help overthrow British colonial rule in India.
