About this listen

To mark the 150th anniversary of Gandhi's birth, DK presents the audiobook of The Story of My Experiments with Truth: An Autobiography, narrated by Sagar Arya.

Gandhi's nonviolent struggles against racism, violence and colonialism in South Africa and India had brought him to such a level of notoriety and adulation that when asked to write an autobiography midway through his career, he took it as an opportunity to explain himself.

He feared the enthusiasm for his ideas tended to exceed a deeper understanding of his quest for truth rooted in devotion to God. His attempts to get closer to this divine power led him to seek purity through simple living, dietary practices, celibacy and a life without violence.

This is not a straightforward narrative biography. In The Story of My Experiments with Truth: An Autobiography, Gandhi offers his life story as a reference for those who would follow in his footsteps.

A well-known Indian actor, Sagar Arya has narrated over 35 audiobooks, including White Teeth by Zadie Smith, Love Like Blood by Mark Billingham and audiobooks by Amish, and he brings his wealth of knowledge to this production. His television credits include A Touch of Frost, Hunted, Spooks, Casualty and Holby City. He appeared as Claudio in RSC's Much Ado About Nothing as well as Twelfth Night (West End), The Great Game (Tricycle) and A Fine Balance (Hampstead).

In today’s world, driven by a brutal form of ethical egoism, his voice was one of selfless devotion to public service and ahimsa, which we seem to have apparently given up heeding to.

It would do great to our society if we can remember these principles in the way we live our lives.

A great man with a message of the greatness of simplicity!

People usually were taught, after MK Gandhi was expelled from the train in South Africa, he immediately came to India and started fighting against British. It’s completely a false statement. Listening to the audio book there are many instances that lead to it is what the TRUTH. “I WANT TO REDUCE MYSELF TO ZERO”. This is lingering around my thoughts.

Had started reading this book many many years ago. Never did read more than a few pages. Had remained on my reading list over the years. Finally listened to it fully. Frankly, was left a bit disappointed mostly because I held and hold Gandhi in very high regard. But his description of his journey and experiments left many questions and many things quite nebulous. Especially the link between God Truth and Ahimsa. But still I took out the time to listen. Was well worth it.

A great insight into Gandhi's mind
