Inspiration is eternal and it is necessary for individual development. All the great men get inspiration from one source or the other. Gandhi, who inspired millions of people during his life time, still inspires people around the world. The book attempts to elucidate the central concepts of Gandhi–his thoughts on every walk of life that are everlasting, time-tested and written for common people in simple language. The material is drawn from a number of sources, including Harijan, Young India, Hind Swaraj, My experiments with truth and Satyagraha in South Africa.
