Gandhi was deeply religious person. His political, Social and economic thoughts sprang from spirituality, in the backdrop of colonialism. Gandhi had experienced the transformative influence of religion on people and understood the ability of religion 'to make men out of straw'. In the colonial context, Hindu men were derided as 'mild' by the British, establishing a hegemony of imperialist British masculinity. Gandhi made Indians feel proud about the gentleness of their nature. He aspired to transcend gender binaries. Gandhi appealed to the conscience of the Colonial masters through satyagraha. It was not a war but a conversation. There was no victor and no vanquished. It was a collective journey towards truth.
