Gandhi's Satyagraha is a form of 'non-violent resistance'. He coined the word 'Satyagraha' during the Indian Freedom Movement. The words have Sanskrit  origin where 'satya' means 'truth' and 'agraha' means 'polite persuasion'. The meaning was that it is the force which was born out of truth and love which in turn encourages one to resort to non-violent methods to persuade anyone to listen to the truth.

Gandhi also employed satyagraha during his stay in South Africa. Owing its success there, he used it as a weapon against the Britisher to achieve freedom.
