Gandhi and His Ashrams – Revised 2nd Edition<\/strong>
\nMahatma Gandhi, revered, cherished and at times severely criticised, is known to the world at large as an enigmatic leader and a political revolutionary. Gandhi has been presented by his biographers in various images from a political pencil leader to a saint, prophet and philosopher. Little has been written about his Ashrams and the non-violent action he propagated through them. The author presents to the readers the influences on Gandhi \u2014 his early childhood to the turbulent traumatic years in South Africa \u2014 which led to the setting up of his Ashrams \u2014 Phoenix Ashram and Tolstoy Farm in South Africa and Sabarmati and Sevagram Ashrams in India. “Our creed was devotion to truth and our business was the search for and insistence of truth. I wanted to acquaint India with the method I had tried in South Africa, and I desired to test in India the extent to which its application may be possible.” His unending search and experiment with truth found shape in these Ashrams.<\/p>\n
