This
biography of Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan centers on the metamorphosis he
effected in the violence-afflicted Pathans of India's northwest
frontier turning them into the peaceful nonviolent disciples of Gandhi
during India's independence movement. Easwaran focuses on the spiritual
change and on Ghaffar Khan's leadership of the Pathans and his
emergence as the frontier Gandhi. . . .This biography . . . should have
a unique appeal for the interested general reader.
This
updated classic reveals how one gentle man became a force for human
progress and freedom. An attractive new cover and revised text enhance
this widely acclaimed profile. More than 70 photographs, many not
published elsewhere, enrich the story of Ghandi's development, and
revealing quotations from Gandhi display that progress against the
backdrop of his social and political work.
This
is the fascinating story of how Eknath Easwaran transformed his own
life: the influence of his spiritual teacher, his grandmother; his
education in an India under the domination of the British Raj, how he
came to develop his method of meditation. In presenting these
conversations, say the authors, "we have attempted to recreate not only
what Easwaran has said but to convey some feeling for what it's like to
be with him when he's talking and for what it's like to be one of his
students."
