“This belief in incarnation is a testimony of man’s lofty spiritual ambition. Man is not at peace with himself till he has become like unto God. The endeavour to reach this state is the supreme, the only ambition worth having. And this is self-realization. This self-realization is the subject of the Gita, as it is of all scriptures.

But in order to make it clearer I changed the word to Satyagraha which has since become current in Gujarati as a designation for the struggle.”
