Gandhi's Battlefield Choice (eBook, PDF)

The Mahatma, The Bhagavad Gita, and World War II

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This volume compares Gandhi's non-violent leadership during World War II to the military leadership of Arjuna in the war that prompted the Bhagavad Gita dialogue, the Sanskrit text that guided Gandhi's actions throughout his life. Remaining true to text, Gandhi became a wartime battlefield commander leading millions in the Quit India conflict that ended the British Rule. The volume provides an overview of Gandhi's entire career as leader of the Indian Nationalist Movement & clarifies Gandhi's approach to acting non-violently when surrounded by violence.
