CONFLICT RESOLUTION by
Mahatma Gandhi, the Lawyer
“I had learnt the true practice of law. I had learnt to find
the better side of human nature and to enter men’s hearts. I realized the true
function of a lawyer was to unite parties riven asunder. The lesson was so
indelibly burnt into me, that a large part of my time during the twenty years
of my practice as a lawyer was occupied in bringing about private compromises
of hundreds of cases. I lost nothing thereby – not even money, certainly not
my soul.”

Mahatma Gandhi, 1927

Eknath Easwaran on "Gandhi, The Man"
EKNATH
EASWARAN ON ‘GANDHI THE MAN’
On this holy day, my eyes strayed to a book that I have owned for
a few years but hadn't read properly. Eknath Easwaran has profiled Mahatma
Gandhi beautifully in his book "Gandhi, The
Man". A Geeta blog is the perfect venue to
review a book written by a noted teacher of the Geeta about that colossus of
the 20th century, Mohandas
Karamchand Gandhi.
Shri
Easwaranji was an accomplished spiritual teacher
based in California, and has written a three volume set "Bhagavad Gita for Daily Living".
