About this listen

 As Russia enters into war with Japan, Tolstoy calls upon individuals from every stratum of society—ranging from the Tsar to the common soldier—to reflect on their actions through the lens of Christs teachings. He asserts that the key to liberating humanity from the self-inflicted suffering and the horrors of war lies not in grand external solutions, but through a profound personal introspection. Nearly two thousand years ago, Jesus challenged each person to ask themselves who am I, why do I live, and what should I do or avoid?
