520 | |a Gandhi's Truth Force (satyagraha) was a unique synergism that included foremost ethical principles found in British law and religion and Hindu tradition and culture. This truth force was rooted in Gandhi's childhood experiences as an Indian Hindu and was cultivated in his formal legal training in London. It culminated in the mass application of nonviolent noncooperation which eventually led to the liberation of the untouchable class in India and forced the British to give India her independence.The focus of this essay is directed toward two specific influences on Gandhi's Truth Force, namely, the Sermon on the Mount and the Principles of Equity—influences acknowledged by Gandhi as formative in his philosophy. These two formative perspectives were two major sources providing for Gandhi the just means and legitimate ends of social and racial equality. In them he discovered a common ethical language, which would become a part of the language he used to synchronize the actions of millions of Indians in concerted non-cooperation and, at the same time, successfully capture the British conscience for his cause of a free India. | ||
