Product description
About the Author
The author has written a number of books and some of them include Character and Nation Building, India of My Dreams and All Men are Brothers.
The author was born on the 2nd of October, 1869, in Porbandar, Gujarat. In the year 1942, he played a key role in launching the Quit India movement, which was intended at forcing the British to leave the nation. As a result of launching this movement, he was thrown in prison and remained there for several years, due to other political offenses allegedly committed by him. At all times, he practised satyagraha, which is the teaching of non-violence. As the British rule ended, he was saddened by India's partition and tried his best to bring peace among the Sikhs and Muslims. On the 30th of January, 1948, Mahatma Gandhi was shot dead by a Hindu nationalist, for allegedly being highly concerned about the nation's Muslim population.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gandhi is about learning not knowing.
Verified PurchaseGandhi is not a part to praise or critisicism . You can get plenty of that kind of material from him. But, he erased he line of extraordinary and mahatma for himself. Read about him. Learn what please to you and put in your practical life. That all, life would be better.

Verified PurchaseThis is a beautiful and deeply-moving book written by a man of rare integrity setting a glowing example to all that live upon this Earth. Gandhi's attention to everyday detail, his focus on openness and honesty, his endless search for Truth in the matter-of-fact experience of everyday life whilst living humbly, embracing lovingly all that lives, points the way, an example for us all.....and yet a way that has been ignored by modern Indian politics and business as the ways of the West are embraced instead. An important book to read if only to remind yourself that there is another way to live that embraces love, non-violence, humility and respect for all regardless of social class, religion and race so desperately needed in our challenged world today.
