Becoming Gandhi: My Experiment Living the Mahatma''s 6 Moral Truths in Immoral Times

English

By (author): Perry Garfinkel

Mahatma Gandhi championed truth and nonviolence, led the struggle for Indias independence, and staunchly stood up for the marginalised. When I despair, he said, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. To many he was a beacon of hope, a true moral compass; to others, a divisive lightning rod for controversy. In Becoming Gandhi, veteran journalist and author Perry Garfinkel sets out on a three-year quest to examine how Gandhis ideals have held up in a world beset with troubling trends. In one chilling admission, one of Gandhis own grandsons tells Garfinkel that humans will always retain a degree of violence. Where does this leave modern society? Garfinkel takes to heart one of Gandhis most famous sayings - Be the change you want to see in the world - and attempts a personal transformation. Committing to practice the Mahatmas six main principles - truth, nonviolence, vegetarianism, simplicity, faith, and celibacy - he seeks to better himself, facing successes and failures that at times lead to self-effacing humour. He traces Gandhis footsteps from India to England to South Africa and even American communities where Gandhis spirit endures. Featuring inspiring interviews, provocative reflections, and remarkable encounters, Becoming Gandhi reveals a new view of this pivotal figure and why his teachings are needed like never before.
