Introduction: Rajagopalachariar popularly known as Rajaji or C.R.Rajaji was born on 8th Dec 1878 at Thorappalliin Salem Dist. Rajaji was one among the selected band of leaders who participated in the freedom movement of India. His emergence at various stages of the freedom movement, his dedication to the national cause and his untiring struggle against the British rule earned him a significant place in the history of the freedom movement. His stature as a front-rank national leader is a tribute to his devoted service for the cause of the nation for almost four decades and his whole career was a record of self-confidence, courage, fearlessness and innovations based on Gandhian concepts.Rajaji was one man among all the lieutenants of Gandhiji who followed the Gandhian path of life in thought, word and action. He was a true follower of Gandhiji. 1.Khilafat Agitation, 1919-1920: Tamilnadu did not lag behind in extending its enthusiastic support to the Khilafat agitation. C.Rajagopalachari earned the esteem of the Muslims by his active involvement in the agitation. In the provincial Congress Conference he moved a resolution demanding the release of Ali Brothers who had courted arrest for spear-heading the Khilafat Movement. He also mobilized the support of the Hindus to observe the Khilafat Day on 17th Oct1919.Khilafat Committees was formed throughout Tamilnadu. On 20 April 1920, Khilafat Conference was held at Madras under the President ship of MaulanaShaukat Ali. C.Rajagopalachari, KasturiRangaIyengar and T. Prakasam addressed the well attendedconference. Another such conference was held at Erode which was presided over by Ali brothers. Gandhi toured Tamilnadu in August 1920 seeking support to the Khilafat Movement. 2. C.Rajaji as a Editor of ‘Young India’: C.Rajaji became the editor of the Magazine, ‘Young India’ when Gandhiji was imprisoned in Erawada Jail in Mumbai. When Rajaji went to meet him, he saw the improper treatment of the British towards him. He was not given a bed, a magazine etc. Rajaji wanted to publish it in the newspapers. But Gandhiji was not favoring it. But C.R said that the British officials failed to protect the great leader of the country who is more important than the Captain 52 Journal of Natural Remedies Vol. 21, No. 3(S2), (2020) of the Army, Napoleon or Kaiser William. This made the newspapers to write about the struggle for life in the jail. Rajaji was able to print the ‘Young India’ at Ahmedabad by working at Salem. In Young India it was published like this, “C.R’s guidance and political assistance is very much needed to lead India-ship in the right direction. Through his works as a true Gandhian leader, when Gandhiji was in Jail, he propagated and promoted the Khadhi movement, Hindu-Muslim unity, Prohibition and also against Untouchability throughout the parts of south India. 3. Rajaji’s role in Opposition of Rowlatt Act: 1919 The British politics over the notorious Rowlatt Bill brought Rajaji to limelight in the Madras Presidency. Rajaji made a speech at Tiruchirappalli on January 16th, 1919, and he felt that the Rowlatt Act would lead to the permanent disablement to the national life, and he complained that many leaders did not feel that danger. For Rajaji, the Rowlatt Bill was "serious enough for an anxious examination of the principles and prosperity of opposing it with entire soul. His speech had a very decisive and significant impact among the people. In 1919 Gandhi was deserted by the moderates and nationalists and he desperately needed a loyal lieutenant in Tamil Nadu. Rajaji invited Gandhi to Madras through KasturiRangaIyengar, who was then President of the Local Anti - Rowlatt Committee. Rajaji thought that only Gandhiji could possibly understand the southern peoples’ spirit of resistance against the Rowlatt Act. Gandhiji came to Madras with Mahadev Desai, who was his personal secretary on 18 March l919 and he stayed as a guest of Rajaji. At that time Mahadev Desai said to Gandhiji about Rajaji “you should cultivate this man”. On 21 March l9l9, Rajaji arranged a meeting in his house to form a satyagraha Sabha. At that time, Rajaji explained Gandhi's satyagraha and its policies. Gandhi decided to start a hartal for the first time on April 6, 1919. Rajaji toured the South and explained about the hartal to the People. The response was successful and on 6th April Madras City observed the hartal peacefully. It was the first organized mass expression against the British Government which brought about the real national awakening among the people. 4. Rajaji’s role in Non-Co-operation Movement: 1920 Ganhiji launched the Non-Cooperation movement on 1 August 1920. Rajaji's contribution as a fervent nationalist and champion of freedom made him as one of the foremost leaders who gave shape and direction to the Non- Cooperation Movement in Tamil Nadu. Rajaji had emerged as a lieutenant of Gandhi in the South. Rajaji and others accepted the non-cooperation programems of boycotting the elections, courts of law, educational institutions, resignation from the governmental positions and the surrender of official titles and honours. When the Non- Cooperation Movement stirred up the whole country, In the Madras presidency, Rajaji was one of the first men to respond to Gandhi’s call to give up his lucrative practice of law. It created an unparalleled scene of fervor, devotion and sacrifice. Rajaji toured many parts of the Madras Presidency and he was responsible in piloting Gandhi's non-violent, non-cooperation as the instrument of national liberation. Rajaji asked the public “not to fall into the trap set by repression and commit violence”. In deed, inspired by Rajaji , many lawyers gave up their profession and joined the Non-Cooperation Movement in the Madras Presidency. Rajaji's initiative, the SwadhinataVidyalaya (Independence College) was established to help the students who sacrificed their studies for the Non-Cooperation Movement to continue their education. 5. Rajaji’s role in Gandhi Ashram at Thiruchengode: 1925 In 1920’s Thiruchengode become famous in political geography, it served as the head quarters for Rajaji for all political and social works. In 1923, there was a difference of opinion between Pro-changers & No-Changers. Rajaji sided with Gandhi opposed council entry and like to implement Gandhi constructive programme. He likes to propagate the principles of Gandhi so he named it as Gandhi Ashram.Rajaji started Gandhi Ashram at Pudupalayam 7 miles from Tiruchengodu.It is a dry area rocky terrine. This site of Ashram provided by MittadarRathnasabapathyGounder, It was inaugurated in Feb 6th 1925 by E.V.R, with the aim to propagating Khaddar & against drink and untouchability. 53 Journal of Natural Remedies Vol. 21, No. 3(S2), (2020) The Ashram published 2 magazines Vimochan (liberation) in Tamil. &Prohibition in English.

The dispensary also setup at Ashram to provide medical relief to the ashramities as well as villages. Rajaji worked against drunkards and untouchability in the locality. The volunteers in the Ashram were trained in enforcing prohibition and removal of untouchability. 6. Khadi Movement of Rajaji to against British rule: During the struggle for Independence in India, Khadar was the symbol of Swaraj. Khadar was an instrument meant opposing the use of foreign clothes.

    Gandhi wields the weapon of moral power (Three Case Stories) By Gene Sharp Foreword by: Dr. Albert Einstein First Published: September 1960 Printed & Published by: Navajivan Publishing House Ahmedabad 380 014 (INDIA) Phone: 079 – 27540635 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.navajivantrust.org Gandhi wields the weapon of moral power FOREWORD By Dr. Albert Einstein This book reports facts and nothing but facts — facts which have all been published before. And yet it is a truly- important work destined to have a great educational effect. It is a history of India's peaceful- struggle for liberation under Gandhi's guidance. All that happened there came about in our time — under our very eyes. What makes the book into a most effective work of art is simply the choice and arrangement of the facts reported. It is the skill pf the born historian, in whose hands the various threads are held together and woven into a pattern from which a complete picture emerges. How is it that a young man is able to create such a mature work? The author gives us the explanation in an introduction: He considers it his bounden duty to serve a cause with all his ower and without flinching from any sacrifice, a cause v aich was clearly embodied in Gandhi's unique personality: to overcome, by means of the awakening of moral forces, the danger of self-destruction by which humanity is threatened through breath-taking technical developments. The threatening downfall is characterized by such terms as "depersonalization" regimentation “total war"; salvation by the words “personal responsibility together with non-violence and service to mankind in the spirit of Gandhi I believe the author to be perfectly right in his claim that each individual must come to a clear decision for himself in this important matter: There is no “middle ground ".

  • The Futility of Violence I. Gandhi's Critique of Violence for Gandhi, Political
    CHAPTER ONE The Futility of Violence I. Gandhi’s Critique of Violence For Gandhi, political life was, in a profound and fundamental sense, closely bound to the problem of violence. At the same time, his understanding and critique of violence was multiform and layered; violence’s sources and consequences were at once ontological, moral and ethical, as well as distinctly political. Gandhi held a metaphysical account of the world – one broadly drawn from Hindu, Jain, and Buddhist philosophy – that accepted himsa or violence to be an ever-present and unavoidable fact of human existence. The world, he noted, was “bound in a chain of destruction;” the basic mechanisms for the reproduction of biological and social life necessarily involved continuous injury to living matter. But modern civilization – its economic and political institutions as well as the habits it promoted and legitimated – posed the problem of violence in new and insistent terms. Gandhi famously declared the modern state to represent “violence in a concentrated and organized form;” it was a “soulless machine” that – like industrial capitalism – was premised upon and generated coercive forms of centralization and hierarchy.1 These institutions enforced obedience through the threat of violence, they forced people to labor unequally, they oriented desires towards competitive material pursuits. In his view, civilization was rendering persons increasingly weak, passive, and servile; in impinging upon moral personality, modern life degraded and deformed it. This was the structural violence of modernity, a violence that threatened bodily integrity but also human dignity, individuality, and autonomy. In this respect, Gandhi’s deepest ethical objection to violence was closely tied to a worldview that took violence to inhere in modern modes of politics and modern ways of living.

Reader may get glimpses of that period from the Preface of the first edition by Pyarelal Nayar and from the Foreward by C. Rajagopalachari. Due to the debate regarding constitutional provisions about reservation after six decades of independence students of Gandhian Thought have been searching the book which has been out of print since long. A publisher in Tamilnadu has asked for permission to translate the book in Tamil and for its publication. We welcomed the proposal and agreed to publish the Tamil version. Obviously the original book in English too will be in demand on publication of the Tamil version. Hence this reprint. We are sure, this publication will help our readers as a beacon light to reach out to the inner reaches of their conscience to find the right path in this world of conflicting claims.

  • 1. RAJKOT the Struggle in Rajkot Has a Personal Touch About It for Me
    1. RAJKOT The struggle in Rajkot has a personal touch about it for me. It was the place where I received all my education up to the matricul- ation examination and where my father was Dewan for many years. My wife feels so much about the sufferings of the people that though she is as old as I am and much less able than myself to brave such hardships as may be attendant upon jail life, she feels she must go to Rajkot. And before this is in print she might have gone there.1 But I want to take a detached view of the struggle. Sardar’s statement 2, reproduced elsewhere, is a legal document in the sense that it has not a superfluous word in it and contains nothing that cannot be supported by unimpeachable evidence most of which is based on written records which are attached to it as appendices. It furnishes evidence of a cold-blooded breach of a solemn covenant entered into between the Rajkot Ruler and his people.3 And the breach has been committed at the instance and bidding of the British Resident 4 who is directly linked with the Viceroy. To the covenant a British Dewan5 was party. His boast was that he represented British authority. He had expected to rule the Ruler. He was therefore no fool to fall into the Sardar’s trap. Therefore, the covenant was not an extortion from an imbecile ruler. The British Resident detested the Congress and the Sardar for the crime of saving the Thakore Saheb from bankruptcy and, probably, loss of his gadi.

  • The Gita According to GANDHI
    The Gita according to GANDHI The Gospel of Selfless Action OR The Gita according to GANDHI By: Mahadev Desai First Published: August 1946 Printed & Published by: Vivek Jitendrabhai Desai Navajivan Mudranalaya Ahmedabad 380 014 (INDIA) www.mkgandhi.org Page 1 The Gita according to GANDHI Forward The following pages by Mahadev Desai are an ambitious project. It represents his unremitting labours during his prison life in 1933-'34. Every page is evidence of his scholarship and exhaustive study of all he could lay hands upon regarding the Bhagavad Gita, poetically called the Song Celestial by Sir Edwin Arnold. The immediate cause of this labour of love was my translation in Gujarati of the divine book as I understood it. In trying to give a translation of my meaning of the Gita, he found himself writing an original commentary on the Gita. The book might have been published during his lifetime, if I could have made time to go through the manuscript. I read some portions with him, but exigencies of my work had to interrupt the reading. Then followed the imprisonments of August 1942, and his sudden death within six days of our imprisonment. All of his immediate friends decided to give his reverent study of the Gita to the public. He had copies typed for his English friends who were impatient to see the commentary in print. And Pyarelal, who was collaborator with Mahadev Desai for many years, went through the whole manuscript and undertook to perform the difficult task of proof reading. Hence this publication. Frankly, I do not pretend to any scholarship.

  • Swaraj Party
    Swaraj Party Program: B.A. Honours Subject: History Paper: VII Dr. Deepti Tiwari Assistant Professor H.O.D., Department of History, Magadh Mahila College,Patna University [email protected] 9451545311 1 The Swaraj Party or the Congress-Khilafat Swarajya Party was formed on 1 January 1923 by C R Das and Motilal Nehru. The formation of the Swaraj Party came after various significant events like the withdrawal of non-cooperation movement, the government of India act 1919 and 1923 elections. The formation of this party is an important chapter in Modern Indian History. The party’s name is taken from the term swaraj, meaning “self-rule,” which was broadly applied to the movement to gain independence from British rule. Background Under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi the Congress emerged as a great nationalist forum of all shades and opinions voicing anti-imperialist sentiments. During Gandhi's Non Cooperation movement (1920-22), its roots spread out among all classes of people. The formal acceptance of Swaraj as the goal of the Congress really converted Noncooperation into a mass movement. Gandhi's catchy slogan ‘Swaraj in one year’ stirred the masses of men into action. The suspension of Non-Cooperation in February, 1922 created widespread disappointment and precipitated an open division in the leadership of the Congress. The Government took advantage of the situation to take resort to a policy of repression. The upper middle class intellectuals looked at politics from the plane of reality, and were keen to rescue the Congress and its politics from the demoralisation that had set in after the withdrawal of Non-Cooperation.
