 The ultimate human rights activist,
Mahatma Gandhi has been an inspiration to millions of people across the world
through his actions and words. A great thinker and activist who espoused
peaceful civil disobedience and paved the way not only for the independence of
India from the British rule but also for civil rights and freedom movement
worldwide. This collections of writings cover topics such as nonviolence,
truth, prejudice, sex, vegetarianism, simplicity, religion, fasting, work,
education and Gandhi’s own life. His story of struggle, self-sacrifice and
courage remains inspiring today- he exemplifies the power of simple, unselfish
goodness and shows how, translated onto the world stage, this can be a
tremendous force for positive change.

‘I claim to be a simple individual liable to err like any
other fellow-mortal. I own, however, that I have humility enough in me to confess
my errors and to retrace my steps. I own that I have an immovable faith in God
and His goodness, and inconsumable passion for truth and love. But, is that not
what every person has latent in him?’
