  <default_description>Mohandas K. Gandhi, called Mahatma (&amp;#8220;great soul&amp;#8221;), was the father of modern India, but his influence has spread well beyond the subcontinent and is as important today as it was in the first part of the twentieth century and during this nation&amp;#8217;s own civil rights movement. Taken from Gandhi&amp;#8217;s writings throughout his life, &lt;b&gt;The Essential Gandhi&lt;/b&gt; introduces us to his thoughts on politics, spirituality, poverty, suffering, love, non-violence, civil disobedience, and his own life. The pieces collected here, with explanatory head notes by Gandhi biographer Louis Fischer, offer the clearest, most thorough portrait of one of the greatest spiritual leaders the world has known.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&amp;#8220;Gandhi was inevitable. If humanity is to progress, Gandhi is inescapable. . . . We may ignore him at our own risk.&amp;#8221; &amp;#8211;Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;With a new Preface drawn from the writings of Eknath Easwaran&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;In the annals of spirituality certain books stand out both for their historical importance and for their continued relevance. The Vintage Spiritual Classics series offers the greatest of these works in authoritative new editions, with specially commissioned essays by noted contemporary commentators. Filled with eloquence and fresh insight, encouragement and solace, Vintage Spiritual Classics are incomparable resources for all readers who seek a more substantive understanding of mankind's relation to the divine.</default_description>
