    Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak's contribution to the Indian freedomstruggle stands at par with Gandhi ji's.Although Gandhi ji accepted Gokhale as his political guru, he adopted all of Tilak's ideas of Swadeshi and social reform.
    His statement " SWARAJ IS MY BIRTH RIGHT AND I WILL HAVE IT " is considered to be the most motivating statement given by an Indian leader till date. he was a great scholar, social reformer as well as a teacher. he was one single individual who had awakened the slumbering millions of Indians through his newspaper 'KERASI'

  9. It is a detailed account of Gandhi’s consisting of Gandhi’s self penned essays (105 essays in all) on his experiments and covers all aspects of the Mahatma’s spiritual life.
    This Autobiography is divided in five parts starting from his childhood days, his experience in South Africa where he experimented with the powerful weapon of Satyagraha and his transformation from Mohan to Mahatma, his various experiments on fundamental principles of Truth and God, till the year 1921, after which his life was so public that he felt there was hardly anything to write about.Gandhi’s Non-violent struggle in South Africa and India had already brought him to such a level of notoriety, adulation and controversy that when asked to write an autobiography mid way through his career, he took it as an opportunity to explain himself.Gandhi’s Autobiography is one of the best sellers and is translated in nearly all languages of the world. Perhaps never before on so grand scale has any man succeeded in shaping the course of history while using the weapon of Peace – Ahimsa (Non-violence).“Autobiography” in a way is a “confession of Gandhi’s faith, a very basic document for the study of his thought”
