| The first time I was introduced to this concept the example used was Gahndi. The correlation might help those who are struggling with the idea of inaction. Its not that we are supposed to do nothing, but that we're supposed to do the right thing peacefully. If you think about Gahndi and all the change he helped bring about - it was all pretty much brought about by him doing nothing. He simply wouldn't fight when they wanted him to, he wouldn't change his mind and take up an idea that was wrong. He changed the course of history by being.
I think we can apply this to the father who rescued his daughter. He didn't kill the guy who snatched her, or create a riot over it, he followed and rescued - there were more dramatic paths he could have chosen, but instead he chose the right option in a peaceful manner.
