Book Description
Kasturba Gandhi, the wife of Mahatma Gandhi silently endured the gradual deterioration of her four sons because of the lack of proper formal education which was denied to them by the peremptory regimentation of their illustrious father. Harilal, the eldest protested more vociferously while the three younger brothers followed the dictates of the patriarch more tamely. The four sons were active-passive resisters in their own rights. But they received almost no approbation from their father while there were words of charity for others similarly situated. The Saint ordained the pursuit of a life of poverty and self-denial. Kasturba translated and implemented these disciplines in her personal life. But could it be expected that an ambitious mother would agree to a course of similar life for her sons? This book is a simple effort to probe into these questions with regard to Kasturba Gandhi: the Silent Sufferer.

Book Description
Woman— the eternal symbol of Shakti. Shakti is not force. It is the energy that integrates people, communities and nations. It is therefore woman’s integrated Shakti that will build a new civilization for the new age. Not only does this book acknowledge the potential of the feminine force, but it also outlines its massive, all encompassing role against the continuing backdrop of a largely patriarchal world. His message is indeed a powerful one: a new civilization awaits us all, a civilization built by women, a civilization of harmony and peace and progress. What makes this book a valuable addition to any library is the fact that each argument is backed up by expert data and socio-legal studies. Above all the author’s message is one of hope and promise, for he is certain that in the future women’s voices and contribution will grow from strength to strength.
