Gandhi Ke Bramhacharya Prayog (Hindi Edition)

Gandhi remained tormented by the irresistible power of sexual desire throughout his life. He had taken the vow of celibacy, that is, renouncing physical relations with his wife, in 1906. But he could never free himself from the attraction of male-female relationships. After a serious study of what Gandhiji called celibacy experiments in the latter part of his life, it appears to be nothing more than infatuation and attraction. Gandhiji himself, in his autobiography and even twelve years later, admitted that he found it difficult to maintain sensual control. That is, even at the ages of 57 and 69, his celibacy was a conscious effort, not a natural state. Gandhiji did not hide this; it was his greatness. But there was no greatness in those experiments. What were Gandhijis experiments with celibacy? What was Gandhijis belief behind such experiments? What were the reasons for such experiments? And what significance did these experiments have in Gandhijis life? This book sheds light on some of these uncomfortable questions. Written after careful research, it is based on authentic quotations, and the author states, It is an effort to encourage us to seek information and think about every subject without prejudice.
