Prosecution of the constructive programme means constructing the structure of Swaraj.

Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi

Every moment of my existence is dedicated to the winning of Swaraj by means of truth and nonviolence.

Mahatma Gandhi

Mahatma Gandhi

If the people resolve and carry out this programme of boycott and Swadeshi, they would not have to wait for Swaraj even for a year.

Mahatma Gandhi

Non-co-operation and civil disobedience in terms of Swaraj are not to be thought of without substantial constructive effort.

Mahatma Gandhi

Nonviolence is based on recognizing that all of us are human beings. And at a certain point we begin to learn that you don't gather very much by making enemies out of people and not recognizing their humanity. Nonviolence is essentially based on recognizing the humanity in every one one of us.

Veganism is about nonviolence: nonviolence to other sentient beings; nonviolence to yourself; nonviolence to the earth.

The power of nonviolent resistance can only come from honest working of the constructive programme.

Mahatma Gandhi

Swaraj of a people means the sum total of the Swaraj (self-rule) of individuals.

Swaraj is not a product of excitement or intoxication. Swaraj will be the natural and inevitable result of business like habits.

Mahatma Gandhi

Lovers of Swaraj cannot rest till a solution is found which would allay Mussalman apprehensions and yet not endanger Swaraj.

Mahatma Gandhi

What can be richer and more fruitful than a greater fulfillment of the vow of nonviolence in thought, word and deed or the spread of that spirit?

Mahatma Gandhi

The Swaraj of my dream is the poor man's Swaraj.
