Abstract
- AbstractIn the face of global crises – physical, economic, political, and environmental – Mahatma Gandhi’s teachings provide vital wisdom and strategies. His philosophy as in Hind Swaraj, challenges violence and exploitation, critiquing unchecked modernity, while advocating for sustainable practices aligned with human values. This article explores the relevance of Gandhi’s concept of Swaraj in addressing contemporary issues like poverty, inequality, and environmental degradation. By reviewing three key texts on Gandhian philosophy, it underscores the enduring significance of his principles of nonviolence and ethical governance, aiming to inspire societies to adopt his framework for a more just and sustainable future.
