Satyagraha - Insistence on truth or force of truth

Gandhi called his overall method of non-violent action Satyagraha. This translates roughly as "Truth-force." A fuller rendering, though, would be "the force that is generated through adherence to Truth."
Nowadays, it's usually called non-violence. But for Gandhi, non-violence was the word for a different, broader concept-namely, "a way of life based on love and compassion." In Gandhi's terminology, Satyagraha-Truth-force-was an outgrowth of nonviolence.

Satyagraha does not allow even hatred toward your enemies.

It asks for making your adversary realise the power of truth instead of forcing truth on them.

Gandhiji adopted this means of non-violent struggles in India starting with Champaran Satyagraha in 1917
