    MAHATMA

    GANDHI

    LOUIS FISCHER
    THE LIFE OF MAHATMA GANDHI
    Gandhi once said that people described
    him as a saint trying to be a politician.
    The truth, he claimed, was the other way
    round. Louis Fischer, in this intimate
    biography, shows that Gandhi was both.
    He was also a warm-hearted and high-
    spirited man — yet always an enigma.
    How did it happen that Gandhi rose
    from obscurity into a world-famous figure,
    the most powerful leader of the most
    populous country? What spiritual force
    converted the English-trained lawyer into
    the saint who freed India

    Acknowledgements

    Thanks first of all to my school, Welham Girls' School, Dehradun for inculcating in me a practice for shram or labour every Gandhi Jayanti where every child would work to clean the gardens, dormitories, floors, verandas, the mess, the toilets, the windows, doors and cupboards. #CleanlinessDrive every year instilled in us a sense of warmth and respect towards the working class and those toiling to make our childhood dream a reality in school. I must also thank my grandmother, Shrimati Jai Devi Pandey, who told me tales from her youth and married life about how she assisted my Gandhian grandfather in his endeavour to free the country from British rule, something in which he completely supported Mahatma Gandhi and his nonviolent ideology.

    If they helped me make this book a reality, its origins go back much further. I am sure I have absorbed things from my father as I observed him while growing up-his habit of punctuality, even to marriage and birthday parties, him maintaining a small wardrobe of clothes (never more than two pairs of trousers and shirts), him cleaning the lavatories of the house, him wearing a Gandhi cap as a child and in his college days, him doing Yoga from a very young
