"If the whole world accepted my message that would be no proof of its truth as it is intrinsically untrue. I early understood the truth that peace and light came from within and were independent of the world's verdict," Gandhi to Jones, 18 January 1928.
A correspondence to missionary and evangelist E. Stanley Jones, documenting the interfaith dialogue in India during the first decades of the 20th century. Jones lectured widely throughout India and counted Gandhi, Tagore, Jawaharlal Nehru, and others among his friends. Gandhi writes on civil disobedience and his efforts toward Indian independence: "I can only say that my heart is absolutely open. I have no axes to grind. I want to find truth – to see God face to face. It will be a mistake to suppose that my people – the mass – have missed my message but if they have I should be unconcerned. If the whole world accepted my message that would be no proof of its truth as it is intrinsically untrue. I early understood the truth that peace and light came from within and were independent of the world's verdict. So please come whenever you the time." Tagore writes in reference to available ashrams and Singh regarding upcoming trips to Tibet. E. Stanley Jones hailed from Baltimore and was the author of numerous books, including Christ of the Indian Road (1925), his first, and Mahatma Gandhi: An Interpretation (1948). [With:] additional letters from Rufus Jones, Norman Vincent Peale, and Billy Graham (two telegrams), and Helen Keller (with secretarial signature) [AND:] Jones, E. Stanley. Gandhi: Portrayal of a Friend, Abingdon Press, 1993.
