Product Description

Gandhi the Man: How One Man Changed Himself to Change the World

Used Book in Good Condition

This is the story of Gandhiâ‚¬s spiritual evolution â‚¬â€œ the turning points and choices that made him not just a great political leader but also a timeless icon of nonviolence.

Eknath Easwaran grew up in India and witnessed how Gandhi inspired people of all races, backgrounds, and religions to turn anger into compassion and hatred into love.

How had Gandhi transformed himself from an ineffective young lawyer into the Mahatma, the â‚¬Å“great soulâ‚¬Â who led 400 million ordinary men and women in their nonviolent struggle for independence? To find out, Easwaran visited Gandhiâ‚¬s ashram and watched the Mahatma absorbed in meditation on the Bhagavad Gita â‚¬â€œ the wellspring of Gandhiâ‚¬s spiritual strength.

Easwaran, a leading authority on the Bhagavad Gita and on spiritual living, explains the principles underlying Gandhiâ‚¬s nonviolence. He highlights how we can all use Gandhiâ‚¬s teachings to make our families, workplaces, and communities more peaceful in the world today.

More than 70 photographs illustrate his life, and a detailed chronology provides historical context.
