  12. Principle Three Nonviolence seeks to defeat injustice, not people. Principle Four • Nonviolence holds that suffering can educate and transform. • It accepts suffering without retaliation. • It accepts violence, if necessary, but will never inflict it. • It willingly accepts the consequences of its acts.  

  13. Principle Five • Nonviolence chooses love instead of hate. • It resists violence of the spirit as well as physical violence. • It holds that love is active, not passive; spontaneous, unmotivated, unselfish, creative, and un-ending in its ability to forgive in order to restore community and defeat injustice.   Principle Six • Nonviolence - belief that the universe is on the side of justice.
