hi frnds..
here is a wonderful book on autobiography of Gandhi..experiment with the truth.. never miss it..
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
" But the path of self-purification is hard and steep. To attain to perfect purity one has to become
absolutely passion-free in thought, speech and action; to rise above the opposing currents of love
and hatred, attachment and repulsion. I know that I have not in me as yet that triple purity, in spite
of constant ceaseless striving for it. That is why the world's praise fails to move me, indeed it very
often stings me. To conquer the subtle passions to me to be harder far than the physical
conquest of the world by the force of arms. Ever since my return to India I have had experience of
the dormant passions lying hidden with in me. The knowledge of them has made me feel
humiliated though not defeated. The experiences and experiments have sustained me and given
me great joy. But I know that I have still before me a difficult path to traverse. I must reduce
muself to zero. So long as a man does not of his own free will put himself last among his fellow
creatures, there is no salvation for him. Ahimsa is the farthest limit of humility.
In bidding farewell to the reader, for the time being at any rate, I ask him to join with me in prayer
to the God of Truth that He may grant me the boon of Ahimsa in mind, word and deed. "
