(200) (4) S D 0206 2 SECTION - I U I Note : This section contains five (5) questions based on the following paragraph. Each question should be answered in about thirty (30) words and each carries five (5) marks. (5x5=25 marks) (5) (30) (5) (5x5=25 ) Read the following passage, and answer the questions given at the end of it : Mahatma Gandhi was not primarily a political thinker, not even a political agitator. He was essentially a religious-minded man, a humanist, and a man of action and intuition. He was a curious amalgam of a mystic and a pragmatist. In his own words, he was not a politician masquerading as a religious man, but a religious man who entered politics because of his great concern for his fellow human beings. He rightly placed Swaraj in the forefront of his programme, and in attaining it he worked out certain principles which could be woven into political philosophy by others. In his case, it was action which led to a certain amount of theorizing and not vice versa. With him, to think was to act. Mahatma Gandhi had read little in the realm of political thought. But what he read he profoundly assimilated and made his own. His interpretation of some of the original texts such as the Bhagavat Gita was novel. Thus he claimed that while on the surface the Gita taught the use of violence in the vindication of truth and righteousness, it really taught non-violence because of the qualification contained in it, viz., that even if one took up arms he should do it disinterestedly. Besides the Gita, Mahatma Gandhi had read Patanjali s Yogasutra, the Ramayana and the Mahabharata as well as some Jaina and Buddhist writings which abound in exhortations to truth and non-violence. From the Upanishads he drew much inspiration for his firm faith in non-possession. The ancient teachings of Lav-Tse and Confucius also had some influence on Mahatma Gandhi s moral and political philosophy. Lav-Tse had taught the philosophy of non-assertiveness. From Confucius, Mahatma Gandhi learned the principle of reciprocity, according to which men should not do to D 0206 3 P.T.O. others what they would not have done to them. Among secular writers, Thoreau, and Ruskin influenced Mahatma Gandhi most. From Thoreau he got much of his inspiration for civil disobedience and the non-payment of taxes. Thoreau s political philosophy was maximum co-operation with all people and institutions when they lead towards good and non-cooperation when they promote evil . Through his works Unto this last and Crown of wild olives , Ruskin instilled in Mahatma Gandhi respect for manual labour which lesson he practised until the end of his days. In addition, Tolstoy moulded Gandhi s whole outlook on life. His views on art, religion, and economics, on the relationship between the sexes, no less than on politics were profoundly influenced by Tolstoy. The kingdom of God is within you (Tolstoy s masterpiece) contains practically the whole of Mahatma Gandhi s non-violent non-cooperation programme in its essentials.
