Publisher's Note
A lamp can only be lit by one that is already alight, it is the lit flame that can kindle such numerous lamps. The nation's father, Mahatma Gandhi life glowed with luster of ahimsa and truth as he developed his association with Param Krupaludev Shrimad Rajchandra.
Shrimadji had made a substantial contribution in sculpting Mahatma Gandhi's character. There is much to gain from the enriched lifestyles of these superhumans of the last century.
Shrimad's language is simply divine, Gandhi's language has a unique kind of earnestness and depth. Shrimadji's speech reveals his intense focus on his inner self, Gandhiji's appearance manifests his innocence. Shrimadji's detached, free from worldly attachments and undeluded state creates astonishing wonderment and Gandhiji's unceasing determination is an inspiration.
Both of these travelers, capable of guiding on the path to liberation with their exemplary lifestyles, had climbed to the pinnacle of greatness. This universe has been graced with their presence. Their devotion to truth and ahimsa strengthens our lives with determination to follow them. Their wisdom helps to dispel the darkness that our lives are enveloped in.
The father of the nation, Mahatma Gandhi is a well known personality across the world because of his achievements primarily through the practise of ahimsa or non-violence. However, very little is known publicly about Shrimad Rajchandra or the spiritual insights he shared that shaped Mahatma Gandhi.
It is difficult to fathom the depth of an ocean, and similarly it is difficult to gauge the depth of the wisdom of these two preeminent personalities. Only an articulate and accomplished author like Dr Kumarpal Desai can paint a vivid picture of their relationship in words.
