"ليعمّ السلام الكون، وليسُدِ السلام الممالك والإمبراطوريات، وليسُدِ السلام الدول وأراضي ذوي السلطان، وليسُدِ السلام بيوت الأصدقاء، وليسُدِ السلام كذلك بيوت الأعداء."
Virchand Gandhi
"In Western lands there is a distinct division between the religious and the secular life. There is one rule of conduct for laymen and another for clergymen. This distinction has never found its place in the life of the people of India. There, all of life is included in the word 'religion."
"في الأراضي الغربية، تتجلى قسمةٌ واضحة بين الحياة الروحية والدنيوية. فللعامة مسلكٌ في السلوك، ولرجال الدين مسلكٌ آخر. هذا التمييز لم يتأصل قط في نسيج حياة الشعب الهندي. فهناك، تندرج الحياة بأسرها تحت مظلة كلمة "الدين"."
Virchand Gandhi
"The greatest skeptic must now admit that the land and sea-borne trade of India had given her a world-wide fame not only for her gold, spices and silk, but for her religions and philosophies also."
"لا بد لأشد المتشككين الآن أن يقر بأن تجارة الهند البرية والبحرية قد أكسبتها شهرة عالمية، لا لذهبها وتوابلها وحريرها فحسب، بل لأديانها وفلسفاتها كذلك."
Virchand Gandhi
"…the designation of wife in India, of the Hindu wife, is higher and grander than that of Empress. She is called Devi"
"...إنّ تسمية الزوجة في الهند، الزوجة الهندوسية، أسمى وأجلّ من تسمية الإمبراطورة. إنها تُدعى "ديفي"."

"In international commerce, India is an ancient country-(19th October, 1899)"
"THOUGHTS: The user wants a translation of a short English phrase into eloquent Arabic (Fusha).
The phrase is: "In international commerce, India is an ancient country-(19th October, 1899)"
Key elements to translate:
1. "In international commerce" - في التجارة الدولية / في مجال التجارة العالمية
2. "India is an ancient country" - الهند بلد عريق / الهند دولة قديمة
3. "-(19th October, 1899)" - (١٩ أكتوبر، ١٨٩٩) - This is a date and should be translated as is, perhaps with a slight rephrasing for flow if needed, but usually dates are just transcribed.
Let's consider the tone: "ancient country" implies a long history and perhaps a deep-rooted presence. "عريق" (areeq) captures this better than "قديم" (qadeem) which can sometimes just mean old without the connotation of nobility or deep heritage.
Combining them:
"في التجارة الدولية، الهند بلد عريق."
Then add the date: "(١٩ أكتوبر، ١٨٩٩)"
The phrase is very short and direct. There isn't much room for poetic embellishment beyond choosing the most appropriate words. "عريق" is a good choice for "ancient" in this context.
Final check:
- Eloquent Arabic (Fusha): Yes, the chosen words are standard Fusha.
- Preserve poetic tone: The original is quite factual, but "ancient country" has a certain weight. "بلد عريق" conveys that weight.
- Translate everything: Yes.
- No extra text: Will provide only the Arabic."

"In more ancient times the life was simpler, but now the discovery of all these different medicines for curing dyspepsia shows that people are suffering from this disease. In this country we know that there are so many kinds of pills and medicines used. We even have those in India now. These things show that not only in America but in all the countries of the world we have to recourse to artificial means for necessary nutrients because people are not aware of right rules of diet. It is better to follow the right rules of diet in the beginning in order to avoid any kind of artificial medicines later on."
"في غابر الأزمان، كانت الحياة أكثر بساطة ويسرًا. أما اليوم، فإن اكتشاف هذه الأدوية المتعددة لعلاج عسر الهضم ليشهد على تفشي هذا الداء بين الناس. ففي هذا البلد، نعلم أن أصنافًا لا تحصى من الحبوب والعقاقير تُستعمل. وحتى في الهند، باتت هذه الوسائل متاحة الآن. هذه الظواهر تدل على أنه ليس في أمريكا وحدها، بل في سائر أقطار العالم، نُجبر على اللجوء إلى وسائل اصطناعية للحصول على المغذيات الأساسية، وذلك لجهل الناس بالقواعد السليمة للتغذية. فالأجدر بنا اتباع القواعد الصحيحة للنظام الغذائي منذ البداية، تفاديًا للحاجة إلى أي نوع من الأدوية الاصطناعية فيما بعد."

"...am so deeply impressed with the fair mindedness and tolerance of the American people..."

"I have heard your orators speak on many questions. One among them the so-called vital question of money which is above all things the most coveted commodity but I, as a Jainist, in the name of my countrymen and of my country, would offer you as the medium of the most perfect exchange between us, henceforth and forever, the indestructible, the unchangeable, the universal currency of good will and peace, and this, my brothers and sisters, is a currency that is not interchangeable with silver and gold, it is a currency of the heart, of the good life, of the highest estate on the earth."
Virchand Gandhi
"If a person's mind is controlled by forces of revenge and jealousy, it cannot express love & sympathy. And even if they show love and sympathy to others it will yield no good result. The thought will not be reflected in love but in hate."
Virchand Gandhi
"In the history of a soul’s evolution there is a critical point of the human incarnation that decides for us whether we stay there, go down or progress upwards. There is a knot of worldly desires impeding us; cut the knot by mastering desires and go forward. This done, progress is assured."
Virchand Gandhi
"The universe is not for man alone, but is a theater of evolution for all living beings. Live and let live is its guiding principle. 'Ahimsa Paramo Dharmah' - Non-injury is the highest religion."
