Gandhi explained the meaning of satyagraha as an increasing awareness of dharma or truth and this awareness, he says, first came to him in 1887. In that year, his caste of Modh Baniyas threatened to excommunicate him if he went to England for, according to custom, travelling overseas meant losing one’s caste.
His reaction was that they were welcome to do so, but he would certainly go to England. “My satyagraha was born on that day,” he says. Thus, his first satyagraha was directed against the elders of his caste whom he respected as much as his father. The satyagraha with the government was only a part of this satyagraha.
