Question

I was on my way to see that fascinating country again and to gather material for a biography of Mahatma Gandhi. It might seem that the sudden leap from Italy to India would bring a rude shock, as the people, geography, history and the problems of the two countries are so different. But having friends in both countries made the transitions easy. Also, though the problems appeared different, the necessary solution was the same in both: a social revolution by legislation to erase the cruel contrasts between the poor and rich and between the lower and the upper classes.
Nor is Gandhi so remote from Italy, Europe, the Americas or Africa. The more I think of his life, the dearer becomes his relevance to the western world of today .The post-war period would have been very different everywhere with an infusion of some Gandhian principles and techniques.
I had lived in Gandhi’s village as his house guest, or hut guest, for a week in 1942. I found him wise, relaxed, moderate, articulate and communicative. He did not expect visitors or associates to be awe-struck or reverent. In fact he encouraged intimacy, banter and laughter. He lived on the same level as everybody else, on the bare earth. When I jumped from the horse-drawn conveyance which first brought me to the edge of his village, he was there, a man of seventy three in white loin-cloth and leather sandals, waiting to welcome me, and he was all the greater because he did not need distance to enhance his importance. He was what he was.
One afternoon, during an hour’s interview, I alluded to the only decoration in his mud-walled hut: a black and white print of Jesus Christ with the inscription, “ He is Our Peace.’
“How is this?” I asked. “You are not a Christian.”
“I am a Christian, a Hindu, a Muslim and a Jew,” he replied.
