Mahatma Gandhi's humane philosophy and inherent spirituality had a
profound influence not only on the people of India but the freedom
loving people worldwide. 11th of September 2006 marked the
centenary of the Satyagraha movement launched by Mahatma Gandhi in
South Africa for peaceful resistance against discriminatory and
unjust laws. ""Satyagraha - the firmness of the force Truth""
became a powerful mass movement of peaceful resistance and civil
disobedience. Over the years, it evolved into a dynamic mass
movement of effective action.Commemorating 100 years of
'Satyagraha' in a befitting manner, the Indian National Congress
convened a two day international conference: ""Peace, Non-violence
and Empowerment: Gandhian Philosophy in the 21st Century"". Over
300 international delegates from 91 countries comprising world
leaders, Nobel laureates, leading peace and human rights activists
and Gandhian scholars reflected on the essence and the enduring
relevance of Mahatma Gandhi's philosophy. The conference
deliberated on subjects and issues which represent the core of
Gandhian thought. The discussion touched upon a wide range of
Gandhian principles and values including Mahatma Gandhi's concern
for the poor and his abiding commitment to non-violence and
people's empowerment. Emerging from the discussions amongst the
luminaries was the collective affirmation to renew people's
commitment to Mahatma's noble mission of building a world that is
in peace and harmony with itself.Based on the deliberations of this
conference, together with precious archival material, this volume -
a book for the future - endeavours to reach out and connect the
people, especially the younger generation, to the 'Gandhian way'
and to carry forward his legacy into the 21st century.
