Edited, with an introduction, by Thomas Merton; New Preface by Mark Kurlansky The basic principles of Gandhi's philosophy of non-violence (ahimsa) and non-violent action (satyagraha) were chosen by Thomas Merton for this compendium in 1965. In his challenging Introduction, Merton emphasizes action rather than pacifism as essential to non-violence, and illustrates how the foundations of Gandhi's universal truths are linked to traditional Hindu Dharma, the Greek philosophers, and the teachings of Jesus Christ.Product Identifiers
