The Message of Mahatma Gandhi - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

One of the topmost recognized and coveted personalities of the last century, Mahatma Gandhi today belongs to mankind as an icon of Truth and Non-violence and the Messiah of poorest and the meek. He had become a statesman saint during his life time. From his entry into politics of the public domain from his South African days to his magical re-christening of India's Freedom struggle, this simple man with a loin cloth, steel-rimmed glasses, rough sandals, a toothless smile and a walking stick, evoked unprecedented mass following among the rich and the poor and the mighty and meek alike both in India and outside. Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore, anointed him with the title of Mahatma, that represented the unanimous collective wishes of the people of India, as well as across the world. The millennia to come his name shall do Indians, in fact the whole world proud. This "half naked fakir", shaped much of the civil society philosophy of the last century as done before by the Buddha and Christ. Mahatma's views on subjects like truth, non-violence, democracy, daridranarayan and a host of other issues, are compiled in this handy volume for easy and rapid reading and of course, inculcation.
