Book Description
Essay from the year 2010 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Globalization, Political Economics, language: English, abstract: "Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test: recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him. Will he gain anything by it? Will it restore him control over his own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to Swaraj for the hungry and spiritually starving millions. Then you will find your doubts and ... self melting away."The Mahatma had an uncanny way of making things simple to the meanest intelligence. And the test mentioned above was Gandhiji's philosopher's stone for turning into the gold of service the base metal of doubt in our work a day world. The test, at the same time, provides a very important clue towards an understanding of the Gandhi's economic and industrial philosophy.
