What is the purpose of the passage?

Answer the question is based on the following passage.

            The people who advocate universal brotherhood often feel
            non violence to be the essence of life. They consider it as
            much a means to achieve success and win over the evil-doer,
            as an end in itself because of its ultimate virtue. They believe
(5)        it to be their moral duty to respect every individual irrespective
            of his social status or his socio-political leanings or even his evil
            deeds. Every human being should be treated with love and
            care, whatever evil he must have committed or threatened the
            other with. A pacifist can in no way deny respect and love to a
(10)      person who does evil. A pacifist has no belief though, in
            indulgence in violence or destructive activities. There is complete
            line of demarcation between the deed and the doer. Love is for
            the doer and the aim is conversion of the force of the deed.
            This respect for the evil doer can only lend strength to the
(15)      feeling of brotherhood. Mahatma Gandhi stands out as a
            leader of this philosophy of pacifism and non violence. He
            propagated this and achieved success in gaining freedom
            for India from the British yoke. Non violence does not yield
            quick results though. The purpose would be achieved slowly
(20)      and the great victory attained. This moral force is powerful
            enough to bring out the goodness finally. Gandhi’s movement
            in India is a living evidence of this.
