摘要:“Sarvodaya” is an offspring of Gandhi's thinking. There was a great impact Jainism on Mahatma Gandhi. He borrowed the term Sarvodaya from the writings of Jaina sage 'Acharya Samantabhadra' and used it first in his autobiography. Though the term Sarvodaya is popularly related to the political and social thinking of Vinoba Bhave, we find its seeds in Gandhian philosophy. Even the translation of Ruskin's Unto the Last into Guajarati by Mahatma Gandhi contains the title 'Sarvodaya'. Some believe that Sarvodaya means the rise of all but it also means 'Welfare of all'.
