Gandhi's Passion
The Life and Legacy of Mahatma Gandhi
Paperback Engels 2003 9780195156348Samenvatting
Mahatma Gandhi was one of the most influential, yet enigmatic, figures of the twentieth century. Gandhi's Passion is the story of his arduous, inspiring life and his paradoxical legacy. Hailed by millions as the father of modern India, Gandhi never held office in free India's government. In waging his struggle against racial discrimination in South Africa and British domination over India, Gandhi always insisted on non-violent 'love' towards his adversaries. He embraced suffering with yogic passion and rejected modern urban society, urging others to live according to India's ancient roots of rural self-sufficiency. Mahatma Gandhi was worshipped by Hindus as a virtual god, but was assassinated by a Brahman of his own faith. The book ends by exploring Gandhi's nation and international impact, especially in light of modern India's present-day nuclear-armed, industrial state.
