Theological ethics are derived from a deity’s standpoint of what is good and should be done by humanity. In this case‚ that deity is God.

However‚ the source from where Gandhi stemmed his peaceful movements did not spread as the spread of his name around the world. Gandhi derived his fundamental principle of love and non-violence from a Russian philosopher called Tolstoy. How these two great influencers became so close despite the geography distance between Russia and India.
