      MOHANDAS KARAMCHAND GANDHI.

      In connection with the present essay I wish to tender my affectionate thanks to my faithful collaborator, my sister, and to my friend, Kalidas Nag, whose deep knowledge and indefatigable kindness have guided my steps through the forest of Indian thought.

      I also wish to thank the publisher, S. Ganesan of Madras, for having placed, spontaneously, his publications at my disposal.

      The literal translation of Mahatma, the name which the people of India gave to Gandhi, is "the great Soul," maha, great; atma, soul. The word goes back to the Upanishads, where it is used in speaking of the Supreme Being, and, through communion of Knowledge and Love, of those who become One with Him:

      "He is the One Luminous, Creator of All,

       Mahatma,

       Always in the hearts of the people enshrined.

       Revealed through Love, Intuition, and Thought,

       Whoever knows Him, Immortal becomes...."

      Tagore, on a visit to Ashram, Gandhi's favorite retreat, quoted this stanza, referring to the Apostle.

      Конец ознакомительного фрагмента.
