1 Mohandas K. Gandhi, An Autobiography: The Story of My Experiments with Truth, 1957, p. xxvii.
2 Throughout the book I use the term “Gandhi’s approach,” but it should be understood that his approach
was not arrived at in a vacuum. His approach was definitely influenced by others, including fellow seekers of Truth
who contributed to his understanding of Satyagraha (non-violence). Please keep this mind as you read the book, that
these unnamed persons may be remembered -- even if not by name.
