Session Description:
Mohandas Gandhi, a Vaishnava born Hindu Spiritual developed “Satyagraha” a concept of peace through non-violence in 1906 in South Africa to erase institutional racism. This session discusses the incident of June 7, 1893 that led to this movement: the Principles of Satyagraha; the influence of Jain Muni, Raichandji; the Dandi Salt Satyagraha; and the influence of non-Hindu faith traditions that influenced “Mahatma” Gandhi’s evolution as a noble soul.
