Gandhi’s aphoristic power, his ability to sum up complex ideas in a few authoritative strokes, shines through these pages.\n\nIndividual chapters cover such topics as moral discipline, spiritual practice, spiritual experience, and much more. Gandhi’s guiding principles of selflessness, humility, service, active yet nonviolent resistance, and vegetarianism make his writings as timely today as when these writings first appeared. A foreword by Gandhi’s grandson Arun and an introduction by Michael Nagler add useful context.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1556437846\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1556437846.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Gandhi, Mahatma|Nagler, Michael N.|Gandhi, Arun|Deshpande, M.
