Simplified Meaning:

Choosing not to use violence shows true strength and courage. Imagine a schoolyard bully who uses physical force to get what he wants. It might look like he is strong, but in reality, he uses violence because he doesn't know any better way to solve problems. On the other hand, a student who stays calm, talks things out, or walks away from a fight shows real power and control. This approach takes more inner strength than hitting back. In history, leaders like Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. used peaceful protests to create big changes. By facing challenges without fighting, they proved that nonviolent actions can be more powerful than any weapon. If you choose to respond to conflicts peacefully in your life, you're not weak; instead, you're demonstrating true strength and wisdom.
