The Story of a Great Soul, the Power of Nonviolence. Gandhi's face is instantly recognizable. But who was he? How did this young lawyer transform into the 'great soul' who led 400 million Indians in their nonviolent struggle for independence? Easwaran, who grew up in Gandhi's India, offers answers which are important both historically and personally. He gives a moving account of the turning points and choices in Gandhi's life that made him not just a great political leader but also a timeless icon of nonviolence. Gandhi's inner transformation, the essence of this biography, contains an urgent message for us today. Non-violence, Easwaran explains, is a practical method for resolving problems, healing relationships and raising the quality of our lives. It is a skill that is essential for the evolution and perhaps even the survival, of our civilization.
