hand over the state’s maintenance of a British garrison.[17] Although he only had an elementary education and had previously been a clerk in the state administration, Karamchand proved a capable chief minister.[19] During his tenure, Karamchand married four times. His first two wives died young, after each had given birth to a daughter, and his third marriage was childless. In 1857, Karamc- hand sought his third wife’s permission to remarry; that year, he married Putlibai (1844–1891), who also came from Junagadh,[17] and was from a Pranami Vaishnava family.[20][21][22][23] Karamchand and Putlibai had three children over the ensuing decade, a son, Laxmidas (c. 1860 – March 1914), a daughter, Raliatbehn (1862– 1960) and another son, Karsandas (c. 1866–1913).[24][25] On 2 October 1869, Putlibai gave birth to her last child, Mohandas, in a dark, windowless ground-floor room of the Gandhi family residence in Porbandar city. As a child, Gandhi was described by his sister Raliat as “rest- less as mercury...either playing or roaming about. One of his favourite pastimes was twisting dogs’ ears.”[26] The In- dian classics, especially the stories of Shravana and king , had a great impact on Gandhi in his child- hood. In his autobiography, he admits that they left an indelible impression on his mind. He writes: “It haunted me and I must have acted Harishchandra to myself times without number.” Gandhi’s early self-identification with truth and love as supreme values is traceable to these epic characters.[27][28] The family’s religious background was eclectic. Gandhi’s father was Hindu[29] and his mother was from a Pranami Vaishnava family. Religious figures were frequent visi- tors to the home.[30] Gandhi was deeply influenced by his mother Putlibai, an extremely pious lady who “would not Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi in his earliest known photo, think of taking her meals without her daily prayers...she aged 7, c. 1876 would take the hardest vows and keep them without flinching. To keep two or three consecutive fasts was nothing to her.”[31] The Gandhi family originated from the village of Kutiana In the year of Mohandas’s birth, Rana Vikmatji was ex- in what was then Junagadh State.[17] In the late 17th or iled, stripped of direct administrative power and demoted early 18th century, one Lalji Gandhi moved to Porban- in rank by the British political agent, after having ordered dar and entered the service of its ruler, the Rana.

While at high school, Mohandas came into contact with 2 English barrister students of other castes and faiths, including several Par- sis and Muslims. A Muslim friend of his elder brother Karsandas, named Sheikh Mehtab, befriended Mohan- das and encouraged the strictly vegetarian boy to try eat- ing meat to improve his stamina. He also took Mohandas to a brothel one day, though Mohandas “was struck blind and dumb in this den of vice,” rebuffed the prostitutes’ ad- vances and was promptly sent out of the brothel. As ex- perimenting with meat-eating and carnal pleasures only brought Mohandas mental anguish, he abandoned both and the company of Mehtab, though they would maintain their association for many years afterwards.[35] In May 1883, the 13-year-old Mohandas was married to 14-year-old Kasturbai Makhanji Kapadia (her first name was usually shortened to “Kasturba”, and affectionately to Gandhi and his wife Kasturba (1902) “Ba”) in an arranged child marriage, according to the cus- tom of the region at that time.[36] In the process, he lost As the best-educated of his brothers, Gandhi was seen by a year at school.[37] Recalling the day of their marriage, his family as the best candidate to one day succeed his he once said, “As we didn't know much about marriage, father and his uncle Tulsidas as diwan.[44] Mavji Dave, for us it meant only wearing new clothes, eating sweets a Brahmin priest and family friend, advised Gandhi and and playing with relatives.” However, as was prevailing his family that he should qualify as a barrister in Lon- tradition, the adolescent bride was to spend much time at don, after which he would be certain to achieve the di- her parents’ house, and away from her husband.[38] Writ- wanship.[45] Initially, Putlibai did not want her youngest ing many years later, Mohandas described with regret the son to leave India and travel across the “black waters”, lustful feelings he felt for his young bride, “even at school thereby losing his caste.

Gandhi extended his original period of stay in South Africa to assist Indians in opposing a bill to deny them the right to vote. He asked Joseph Chamberlain, the British Colonial Secretary, to reconsider his position on this bill.[50] Though unable to halt the bill’s passage, Gandhi in South Africa (1895) his campaign was successful in drawing attention to the

This corps was commanded by Gandhi and operated for less than two months.[68] The experience taught him it was hopeless to directly challenge the overwhelming military power of the British army—he decided it could only be resisted in nonviolent fashion by the pure of heart.[69] In 1910, Gandhi established an idealistic community called '' near Johannesburg, where he nur- tured his policy of peaceful resistance.[70] In the years after blacks gained the right to vote in South Africa (1994), Gandhi was proclaimed a national hero with numerous monuments.[71]

The British did not recognise the declaration but negotiations ensued, with the Congress taking a role in provincial government in the late 1930s. Gandhi and the Congress withdrew their support of the Raj when the Viceroy declared war on Germany in September 1939 without consultation. Tensions escalated until Gandhi de- manded immediate independence in 1942 and the British responded by imprisoning him and tens of thousands of Congress leaders. Meanwhile, the Muslim League did co-operate with Britain and moved, against Gandhi’s strong opposition, to demands for a totally separate Mus- lim state of Pakistan. In August 1947 the British parti- tioned the land with India and Pakistan each achieving independence on terms that Gandhi disapproved.[73]

Ambedkar and his allies also felt Gandhi was undermin- ing Dalit political rights. Gandhi had also refused to sup- port the untouchables in 1924–25 when they were cam- paigning for the right to pray in temples. Because of Gandhi’s actions, Ambedkar described him as “devious and untrustworthy”.[100] Gandhi, although born into the Vaishya caste, insisted that he was able to speak on be- half of Dalits, despite the presence of Dalit activists such as Ambedkar.[115] Gandhi and Ambedkar often clashed because Ambedkar sought to remove the Dalits out of community, while Gandhi tried to save by exorcising untouchability. Ambedkar complained that Gandhi moved too slowly, while Hindu traditionalists said Gandhi was a dangerous radical who rejected scripture.

Truth and nonviolence are as Gandhi’s doctrine.[165] old as the hills.[157] Gandhi’s ethical thinking was heavily influenced by a handful of books, which he repeatedly meditated 6.1 Influences upon. They included especially Plato's Apology and 's (1862) (both of which he trans- lated into his native Gujarati); William Salter’s Ethical Religion (1889); 's On the Duty of Civil Disobedience (1849); and 's The King- dom of God Is Within You (1894). Ruskin inspired his decision to live an austere life on a commune, at first on the Phoenix Farm in Natal and then on the Tolstoy Farm just outside Johannesburg, South Africa.[51] Balkrishna Gokhale argues that Gandhi took his philoso- phy of history from Hinduism and Jainism, supplemented by selected Christian traditions and ideas of Tolstoy and Ruskin. Hinduism provided central concepts of God’s role in history, of man as the battleground of forces of virtue and sin, and of the potential of love as an histori- cal force. From Jainism, Gandhi took the idea of apply- ing nonviolence to human situations and the theory that Absolute Reality can be comprehended only relatively in [166] Gandhi with famous poet Rabindranath Tagore, 1940 human affairs.

If they do not give you free passage out, you will allow yourselves, man, woman, and child, to be slaughtered, but you will refuse to owe allegiance to them.”[186] George Orwell remarked that Gandhi’s meth- ods confronted 'an old-fashioned and rather shaky despo- tism which treated him in a fairly chivalrous way', not a totalitarian Power, 'where political opponents simply disappear.'[187] In a post-war interview in 1946, he said, “Hitler killed five million Jews. It is the greatest crime of our time. But the Jews should have offered themselves to the butcher’s knife. They should have thrown themselves into the sea from cliffs... It would have aroused the world and the people of Germany... As it is they succumbed anyway in their millions.”[188] Gandhi believed this act of “collective suicide”, in response to the Holocaust, “would have been heroism”.[189]

No exception can possibly be taken to the natural desire of the Jews to found a home in Palestine. But they must wait for its fulfillment till Arab opinion is ripe for it.”[139] In 1938, Gandhi stated that his “sympathies are all with the Jews. I have known them intimately in South Africa. Some of them became life-long companions.” Philoso- pher Martin Buber was highly critical of Gandhi’s ap- proach and in 1939 wrote an open letter to him on the subject.

8 Legacy and depictions in popular culture

See also: List of artistic depictions of Mahatma Gandhi and List of roads named after Mahatma Gandhi

• The word Mahatma, while often mistaken for Gandhi’s given name in the West, is taken from the Sanskrit words maha (meaning Great) and atma (meaning Soul). Rabindranath Tagore is said to have accorded the title to Gandhi.[233] In his autobiogra- phy, Gandhi nevertheless explains that he never val- ued the title, and was often pained by it.[234][235][236]

• Innumerable streets, roads and localities in India are named after M.K.Gandhi. These include M.G.Road (the main street of a number of Indian cities includ- ing and Bangalore), (near , a weekly journal published by Gandhi from 1919 Sion, Mumbai) and Gandhinagar (the capital of the to 1932 state of Gujarat, Gandhi’s birthplace).[237]

Gandhi was a prolific writer. One of Gandhi’s earliest • In 2009, the search engine Google commemorated publications, Hind Swaraj, published in Gujarati in 1909, Gandhi in their Google Doodle.[238] is recognised as the intellectual blueprint of India’s in- dependence movement. The book was translated into English the next year, with a copyright legend that read 8.1 Followers and international influence “No Rights Reserved”.[227] For decades he edited several newspapers including Harijan in Gujarati, in Hindi and in the English language; while in South Africa and, Young India, in English, and Navajivan, a Gu- jarati monthly, on his return to India. Later, Navajivan was also published in Hindi. In addition, he wrote letters almost every day to individuals and newspapers.[228] Gandhi also wrote several books including his autobiog- raphy, The Story of My Experiments with Truth (Gujarātī " "), of which he bought the entire first edition to make sure it was reprinted.[100] His other autobiographies included: Satyagraha in South Africa about his struggle there, Hind Swaraj or Indian Home Rule, a political pamphlet, and a paraphrase in Gu- jarati of John Ruskin's Unto This Last.[229] This last es- say can be considered his programme on economics.

Nelson Mandela was a follower of the nonviolent re- sistance philosophy of Gandhi.[244] Bhana and Vahed commented on these events as “Gandhi inspired suc- ceeding generations of South African activists seeking to end White rule. This legacy connects him to ...in a sense Mandela completed what Gandhi started.”[65] Gandhi’s life and teachings inspired many who specif- ically referred to Gandhi as their mentor or who dedi- cated their lives to spreading Gandhi’s ideas. In Europe, Romain Rolland was the first to discuss Gandhi in his 1924 book Mahatma Gandhi, and Brazilian anarchist and feminist wrote about Gandhi in her work on pacifism. In 1931, notable European physicist Einstein exchanged written letters with Gandhi, and called him “a role model for the generations to come” in a letter writing about him.[247] Einstein said of Gandhi:

Mahatma Gandhi’s life achievement stands unique in political history. He has invented a completely new and humane means for the liberation war of an oppressed country, and practised it with greatest energy and devotion. Mahatma Gandhi on a 1969 postage stamp of the Soviet Union The moral influence he had on the consciously thinking human being of the entire civilized world will probably be much more lasting than it seems in our time with its overestimation of brutal violent forces. Because lasting will only be the work of such statesmen who wake up and strengthen the moral power of their people through their example and educational works. We may all be happy and grateful that destiny gifted us with such an enlightened contempo- rary, a role model for the generations to come.

Generations to come will scarce believe that such a one as this walked the earth in flesh and blood.
