Slide8GANDHISM
It is
a body of ideas
and principles that describes
the inspiration, vision and
the lifework of
Mahatma Gandhi
.
It is particularly associated with his contributions to the idea of nonviolent resistance, sometimes also called civil resistance
.
The
two pillers of "Gandhism" were truth and non-violence.
The term "Gandhism" also encompasses what Gandhi's ideas, words and actions mean to people around the world, and how they used them for guidance in building their own future
.
Slide9Gandhism also permeates into the realm of the individual human being, non-political and non-social.
A
Gandhian can mean either an individual who
follows
, or a specific philosophy which is attributed to, Gandhism
.
Eminent scholar, Professor Ramjee Singh has called Gandhi the Bodhisattva of the twentieth century
Slide10However Gandhi did not approve of 'Gandhism', as Gandhi explained:
There is no such thing as "Gandhism," and I do not want to leave any sect after me. I do not claim to have originated any new principle or doctrine. I have simply tried in my own way to apply the eternal truths to our daily life and problems...The opinions I have formed and the conclusions I have arrived at are not final. I may change them tomorrow. I have nothing new to teach the world. Truth and non-violence are as old as the hills.
[2]
Slide11Gandhi’s ideas and ideals form a school of thought ,a distinct philosophy of life and is known as Gandhism.
It not merely a political creed. it is a message and a philosophy of life.
It is not a belief but an actual life practice.
Slide12Vision on Politics and religion
It is only a path way to the service of god.
Politics with out religion is a death trap, because it kills the soul.
By religion he meant observances of higher religious values truth, ahimsa, love, compassion, non- possession, non attachment in one’s own life.
Slide13Theory of non - violence {ahimsa}
Gandhi was the apostolate of non – violence.
Ahimsa means avoiding injury to anything on earth in thought,
word or
deed.
Means extending love to all living creatures and even to he nature.
Ahimsa and truth are the two sides of the same coin.
Ahimsa is the means and truth is the end.
Slide14Theory of sathyagrha
Literally means firm with truth .
It is the exercise of the purest soul force against all injustice ,oppression and exploitation.
It is based on the theory of self suffering.
It is a method of solving conflicts through self suffering and sacrifice.
Slide15Slide16Techniques of sathyagrha
Non co-operation
People should non co-operate with those who are doing injustice or oppression.
Civil resistance
Disobey cruel and in unjust laws.
Carry on the struggle till unjust law is replaced.
Fasting
I
t must be spiritually disciplined and true to its cause.
Slide17Slide18Strike
Strong weapon for workers against industrialists.
S
trike should only aim at getting their rights and equal status.
Hijrat
If a person cannot tolerate injustice of the oppressor and also feels that he
has
not the power to become a good satyagrahi, for him, the best method was that of Hijrat or ‘leaving one’s ancestral place’.
Slide19Idea of trusteeship
Gandhi wanted to transform the system of capitalism. He, there fore suggested the idea of trusteeship.
It does not exclude legislative regulation of property by the state.
The character of production will be determined by social necessity and not by personal whims or greed.
Slide20Slide21Concept of ideal society
It is a democracy with out state .
In such a society there is no relationship of command and obedience, superior or inferior.
There will be no capitalism and no exploitation of man.
No institution of state , like jails, police and courts etc.
Society based on non-violence.
Society based on the principle of free labour and non-possession.

Slide25conclusion
Gandhism represents an original thought based on truth and non-violence.
Gandhi had used it to mobilize the masses of India to drive English from the subcontinent with a moral crusade instead of an armed rebellion, prayers instead of machine gun fire, disdainful silence instead of the fracas of terrorists bombs.
Gandhism may be still worth recalling as a source of strength , a beacon of light for guidance and not the least, as a warning.
