Detailed explanation-1: -For Gandhiji, Satyagraha was not just a means of non-violent struggle but it became the philosophy of his life. By giving the concept of Satyagraha, Gandhiji showed mankind to win over greed and fear by love. In this principle of non-violence, Mahatma Gandhi introduced the technique of resistance to evil and untruth.
Detailed explanation-2: -Satyāgraha (Sanskrit: ; satya: “truth", āgraha: “insistence” or “holding firmly to"), or “holding firmly to truth", or “truth force", is a particular form of nonviolent resistance or civil resistance. Someone who practises satyagraha is a satyagrahi.
Detailed explanation-3: -Satyagraha is literally holding on to Truth and it means, therefore, Truth-force. Truth is soul or spirit. It is, therefore, known as soul force. It excludes the use of violence because man is not capable of knowing the absolute truth and, therefore, not competent to punish.
Detailed explanation-4: -Gandhi said, “Truth is not only Relative Truth of our conception but the Absolute Truth, the Eternal Principle, that is God.” Thus, while Absolute Truth is God, the Relative Truth is something what we perceive as Truth. No proof is required to know the Absolute Truth because it is eternal and infinite.
