answer the questions 11 to 15: Gandhi's overall social and
environmental philosophy is based on what human beings need rather than what
they want. His early introduction to the teachings of Jains, Theosophists,
Christian sermons, Ruskin and Tolstoy, and most significantly the Bhagavad
Gita, were to have profound impact on the development of Gandhi's holistic
thinking on humanity, nature and their ecological interrelation. His deep
concern for the disadvantaged, the poor and rural population created an
ambience for an alternative social thinking that was at once far-sighted,
local and immediate. For Gandhi was acutely aware that the demands generated
by the need to feed and sustain human life, compounded by the growing industrialization
of India, far outstripped the finite resources of nature. This might nowadays
appear naive or commonplace, but such pronouncements were as rare as they
were heretical a century ago. Gandhi was also concerned about the
destruction, under colonial and modernist designs, of the existing
infrastructures which had more potential for keeping a community flourishing
within ecologically-sensitive traditional patterns of subsistence, especially
in the rural areas, than did the incoming Western alternatives based on
nature-blind technology and the enslavement of human spirit and energies. Perhaps the moral principle for
which Gandhi is best known is that of active non-violence, derived from the
traditional moral restraint of not injuring another being. The most refined
expression of this value is in the great epic of the Mahabharata, (c. 100 BCE
to 200 CE), where moral development proceeds through placing constraints on
the liberties, desires and acquisitiveness endemic to human life. One's action is
judged in terms of consequences and the impact it is likely to have on
another. Jainas had generalized this principle to include all sentient
creatures and biocommunities alike. Advanced Jaina monks and nuns will sweep
their path to avoid harming insects and even bacteria. Non-injury
is a non-negotiable universal prescription. 11. Which one of the following have a profound
