Question

What are the features of satyagraha???

Answer 1

true Satyagrahi is one who practises fearlessness. Fear is at the root of untruth and violence, coward­ice is born out of fear. Truth and non-violence can only be achieved by the brave and the strong.

Main object of Gandhiji had been to infuse into his countrymen the qualities of fearlessness and self-confidence. There is lot of justification in the remarks of Viscount Samuel, "Gandhiji taught the Indians to strengthen their backs, to raise their eyes and to face circumstances with steady gaze.

'Let us fear God and we shall cease to fear man. All the fears revolve round the body as the centre and would therefore, disappear as soon as one gets rid of attachment of the body a nation is great which sets its head upon the death as its pillow. Those who defy death are free from all fears." said Gandhiji.

Answer 2

Gandhi’s Concept of Satyagraha is an exceptional and novel way to resist evil. This is the heart and soul of the entire Gandhian theory and philosophy, and his exclu­sive contribution to the modern Indian political thought. Through this mechanism, Gandhi aimed at resisting any kind of unjust, impure or untruthful acts.

This concept also aims at furtherance of love and self-purification. Satyagraha can be regarded as a vindication of truth by taking self-suffering in the form of love. It is the weapon of the bravest and the strongest. It is an antidote for coercion. It was believed that Satyagraha enables elevation of spiritual and moral qualities of an individual.

The main function of a Satyagraha is not to injure the enemy by any means. It is an appeal to the enemy either through reason or by a gentle rational argument. It is something like a sacrifice of the self. Satyagraha has two positive features, viz., it showers blessings on those who practice it and secondly, it blesses those individuals against whom Satyagraha is practiced.

The concept of Satyagraha advocates that it is through suffering that there are achievements. For instance, just like a mother who takes all the suffering for the sake of a child, Satyagraha also takes all the pain for the cause of the fellow citizens.
