How can we confront injustice in society? Mahatma Gandhi, the famous Indian freedom fighter, developed a spiritual response to this as a young lawyer in South Africa: "Satyagraha", holding on to the truth. The truth is propagated here as the most effective means in the fight against injustice, the opposing side is to be convinced by peaceful means, through non-violent resistance. Philip Glass has dedicated an emphatic work of art to this idea with his great choral opera Satyagraha : His catchy minimal music transports us to other spheres of consciousness, the timeless verses from the Bhagavad Gita invite us to inner contemplation - an inspiring experience.
