practices of Mahatma Gandhi. It includes study of all relevant economic
activities having a relevance to Indian conditions. These economic activities
include production, distribution, consumption, public finance and sarvodaya.
The core of the Gandhian economics is the basic principles of truth and non
violence. Therefore Gandhian economics refers to all such economic activities
undertaken within the framework of truth and non violence and accepted ethical
standards in which man is regarded as the central point of the study.

Gandhi Journal Article - II
Gandhi-
Leader of Millenniums
By
Prof. Rina A. Pitale-Puradkar
Mahatma Gandhi represents a figure of unique integrity,
consistency and humanity. The point of departure of his life philosophy and the
basis of his theory and activity in practice are freedom and welfare of any
human being and prosperity of peoples and nations of the whole mankind.
Non-violence is the elementary and indispensable condition for the
materialization of these noble goals. These principles and values represented a
permanent source of inspiration in Gandhi’s guidance in his imaginative
undertakings both in the struggle for freedom and independent development of
India and the promotion of her role in the international community. As a matter
of fact, Gandhi’s firm belief in the creativeness and openness of the people of
India and his own active engagement for a peaceful and friendly cooperation
among nations on equal footing, without any interference or imposition were
inexhaustible sources of his personal wisdom and high credibility both as the
father of modern India, as well as one of the major moral, spiritual and
political international authorities of our times.

Gandhi Journal Article - I
Mahatma and Women in India-Miles to go
By Jitendra Aherkar & Sagar Poojari
Abstract
Gandhi is forever remembered in history, for he stood up for Indian civil rights, and has made a big difference for people in India today specially women. Women are God's greatest gift to humanity. She has the power to create or destroy. is a saying that behind every successful man there is a women Similarly, Gandhi was influenced by his mother Putlibai and wife Kasturba. As Gandhi has said: "The outstanding impression my mother has left on my memory is that of saintliness”. Gandhi's attitudes towards women were as much shaped by his innate sense of comparison and justice as they were by the patriarchal albeit benevolent conservatism that was the sheet anchor of his cultural and social discourse. The contradiction between his liberal feminist pronouncements, his egalitarian, loving and respectful concern for women, and his belief in their role in politics and in society are sometimes difficult to reconcile. Yet Gandhi, more than anyone else, struggled with these paradoxes in the existing social milieu. Comparing his vision of women with the current status of women and the ongoing struggle for women's empowerment will provide a measure of what has been achieved. The ultimate goal of empowerment of women based on Gandhi's vision is Sarvodaya the welfare of all through cooperation and trusteeship in the economic sphere, equal participation in the political sphere, and mutual aid in the social sphere without regard to caste, or class or gender. Thus, empowerment of village women cannot be imposed from above, it must grow from the bottom upwards. This paper gives a brief idea on Mahatma's vision for Indian women for success and progress of society in all walks of life.
