The Essential Gandhi:
An Anthology of His Writings on His Life, Work, and Ideas
by Mahatma Gandhi, edited by Louis Fischer, with a Preface by Eknath Easwaran
One of the Greatest Spiritual Leaders the World Has
Known
‘Mahatma K. Gandhi, called Mahatma (“great soul”),
was the father of modern India, but his influence has spread
well beyond the subcontinent and is as important today as
it was in the first part of the twentieth century and during
this nation’s own civil rights movement. Taken from
Gandhi’s writings throughout his life, The Essential
Gandhi introduces us to his thoughts on politics, spirituality,
poverty, suffering, love, nonviolence, civil disobedience,
and his own life. The pieces collected here, with explanatory
head notes by Gandhi biographer Louise Fischer, offer the
clearest, most through portrait of one of the greatest spiritual
leaders the world has known.’
“Gandhi was inevitable. If humanity
is to progress, Gandhi is inescapable….We may ignore
him at our own risk.”
-Dr. Martin Luther King,
Jr.
