A book first published in 1893. Banned until today in Russia. Has been banned in many other nation States. If not banned, many times neglected and ignored by the publishers, even though Tolstoy had already established a reputation as a brilliant author.
Tolstoy, in the book talks about the true teachings of Jesus Christ, considering The Sermon on The Mount as the most important. He acknowledges and explains why any regulatotion, creation and existence of nation states, churches of religions etc. are against Jesus's teachings. The author emphasises importance of his method of peaceful change - nonresistance to evil. He was in a constant mail communication with Gandhi, who has used his method. Martin Luther King was also a continuator of the method described in this book.
The Kingdom of God is Within You is one of the most important books I have ever read. At many points while reading it, I felt like Tolstoys ideas are very close to the bitcoiners ethos.
I highly recommend this book.
