ABSTRACT

Gandhiji is a practical mystic whose philosophy of life and whose political programme are at once an inspiration to thousands and a puzzle to millions. While his philosophy of Soul-life can be understood in theory by any intelligent individual, and its principles practised by the ardent and resolute aspirant, his political programme will remain a riddle until he is perceived as a figure evolving very naturally out of the long, long past of India and in a real sense embodying the forces which are moulding its present history.
