This is the first systematic study of Mohandas Gandhi's conception of religion and of his personal practices to be based on the ninety volumes of his Collected Works. With a constant awareness of chronology, this book focuses on Gandhi's own statements, revealing the considerable development of his ideas within a lasting and consistent ideological and moral framework. This biography of Gandhi as a Hindu discloses how he was influenced by, and reacted to, Hindu traditions, and why the Hindu establishment rejected him.
