Кіріспе
Үндістанда британдық отаршылдық билік кезінде қолданылған зорлықсыз қарсылық түрі Сатьяграха (; satya: "ақиқат", āgraha: "қатыным" немесе "қатаң ұстану"), немесе "ақиқатқа берік ұстану", "ақиқат күші" – зорлықсыз қарсылықтың немесе азаматтық қарсылықтың ерекше түрі. Сатьяграханы қолданушы адам сатьяграхи деп аталады. Сатьяграха терминін Махатма Ганди (1869–1948) тұжырымдап, дамытқан. Махатма Ганди сатьяграханы Үндістанның тәуелсіздік қозғалысында, сондай-ақ Оңтүстік Африкада үндістердің құқықтары үшін күрескен кезінде қолданды. Сатьяграха теориясы Мартин Лютер Кингтің және Джеймс Бевелдің АҚШ-тағы Азаматтық құқықтар қозғалысы кезінде, сондай-ақ Нельсон Манделаның Оңтүстік Африкадағы апартеидке қарсы күресіне, және көптеген басқа әлеуметтік әділдік пен ұқсас қозғалыстарға әсер етті.
Form of nonviolent resistance practised during British colonial rule in India
Satyāgraha (; satya: "truth", āgraha: "insistence" or "holding firmly to"), or "holding firmly to truth",' or "truth force", is a particular form of nonviolent resistance or civil resistance. Someone who practises satyagraha is a satyagrahi'. The term satyagraha was coined and developed by Mahatma Gandhi (1869–1948), who practised satyagraha in the Indian independence movement and also during his earlier struggles in South Africa for Indian rights. Satyagraha theory influenced Martin Luther King Jr.'s and James Bevel's campaigns during the Civil Rights Movement in the United States, as well as Nelson Mandela's struggle against apartheid in South Africa and many other social justice and similar movements. Principles
Gandhi envisioned satyagraha as not only a tactic to be used in acute political struggle but as a universal solvent for injustice and harm. He founded the Sabarmati Ashram to teach satyagraha. He asked satyagrahis to follow the following principles (Yamas described in Yoga Sutra):
Nonviolence (ahimsa)
Truth – this includes honesty, but goes beyond it to mean living fully in accord with and in devotion to that which is true
Not stealing
Non possession (not the same as poverty)
Body labour or bread labour
Control of desires (gluttony)
Fearlessness
Equal respect for all religions
Economic strategy such as boycotts of imported goods (swadeshi)
On another occasion, he listed these rules as "essential for every Satyagrahi in India":
Must have a living faith in God
Must be leading a chaste life and be willing to die or lose all his possessions
Must be a habitual khadi weaver and spinner
Must abstain from alcohol and other intoxicants
Rules for satyagraha campaigns
Gandhi proposed a series of rules for satyagrahis to follow in a resistance campaign:
For Gandhi, satyagraha went far beyond mere "passive resistance" and became strength in practising non violent methods. In his words:
In September 1935, in a letter to P. Kodanda Rao, Servants of India Society, Gandhi disputed the proposition that his idea of civil disobedience was adapted from the writings of Henry David Thoreau, especially the essay Civil Disobedience published in 1849. Gandhi described it as follows:
Contrast to "passive resistance"
Gandhi distinguished between satyagraha and passive resistance in the following letter:
Ahimsa and satyagraha
There is a connection between ahimsa and satyagraha. Satyagraha is sometimes used to refer to the whole principle of nonviolence, where it is essentially the same as ahimsa, and sometimes used in a "marked" meaning to refer specifically to direct action that is largely obstructive, for example in the form of civil disobedience. Gandhi says:
Defining success
Assessing the extent to which Gandhi's ideas of satyagraha were or were not successful in the Indian independence struggle is a complex task. Judith Brown has suggested that "this is a political strategy and technique which, for its outcomes, depends greatly on historical specificities." The view taken by Gandhi differs from the idea that the goal in any conflict is necessarily to defeat the opponent or frustrate the opponent's objectives, or to meet one's own objectives despite the efforts of the opponent to obstruct these. In satyagraha, by contrast, "The Satyagrahi's object is to convert, not to coerce, the wrong doer." The opponent must be converted, at least as far as to stop obstructing the just end, for this cooperation to take place. There are cases, to be sure, when an opponent, e. g. a dictator, has to be unseated and one cannot wait to convert him. The satyagrahi'' would count this a partial success.

In September 1935, in a letter to P. Kodanda Rao, Servants of India Society, Gandhi disputed the proposition that his idea of civil disobedience was adapted from the writings of Henry David Thoreau, especially the essay Civil Disobedience published in 1849. Gandhi described it as follows:
Contrast to "passive resistance"
Gandhi distinguished between satyagraha and passive resistance in the following letter:
Ahimsa and satyagraha
There is a connection between ahimsa and satyagraha. Satyagraha is sometimes used to refer to the whole principle of nonviolence, where it is essentially the same as ahimsa, and sometimes used in a "marked" meaning to refer specifically to direct action that is largely obstructive, for example in the form of civil disobedience. Gandhi says:
Defining success
Assessing the extent to which Gandhi's ideas of satyagraha were or were not successful in the Indian independence struggle is a complex task. Judith Brown has suggested that "this is a political strategy and technique which, for its outcomes, depends greatly on historical specificities." The view taken by Gandhi differs from the idea that the goal in any conflict is necessarily to defeat the opponent or frustrate the opponent's objectives, or to meet one's own objectives despite the efforts of the opponent to obstruct these. In satyagraha, by contrast, "The Satyagrahi's object is to convert, not to coerce, the wrong doer." The opponent must be converted, at least as far as to stop obstructing the just end, for this cooperation to take place. There are cases, to be sure, when an opponent, e. g. a dictator, has to be unseated and one cannot wait to convert him. The satyagrahi'' would count this a partial success.
Satyāgraha (; satya: "truth", āgraha: "insistence" or "holding firmly to"), or "holding firmly to truth",' or "truth force", is a particular form of nonviolent resistance or civil resistance. Someone who practises satyagraha is a satyagrahi'. The term satyagraha was coined and developed by Mahatma Gandhi (1869–1948), who practised satyagraha in the Indian independence movement and also during his earlier struggles in South Africa for Indian rights. Satyagraha theory influenced Martin Luther King Jr.'s and James Bevel's campaigns during the Civil Rights Movement in the United States, as well as Nelson Mandela's struggle against apartheid in South Africa and many other social justice and similar movements. Principles
Gandhi envisioned satyagraha as not only a tactic to be used in acute political struggle but as a universal solvent for injustice and harm. He founded the Sabarmati Ashram to teach satyagraha. He asked satyagrahis to follow the following principles (Yamas described in Yoga Sutra):
Nonviolence (ahimsa)
Truth – this includes honesty, but goes beyond it to mean living fully in accord with and in devotion to that which is true
Not stealing
Non possession (not the same as poverty)
Body labour or bread labour
Control of desires (gluttony)
Fearlessness
Equal respect for all religions
Economic strategy such as boycotts of imported goods (swadeshi)
On another occasion, he listed these rules as "essential for every Satyagrahi in India":
Must have a living faith in God
Must be leading a chaste life and be willing to die or lose all his possessions
Must be a habitual khadi weaver and spinner
Must abstain from alcohol and other intoxicants

Satyagraha is sometimes used to refer to the whole principle of nonviolence, where it is essentially the same as ahimsa, and sometimes used in a "marked" meaning to refer specifically to direct action that is largely obstructive, for example in the form of civil disobedience. Gandhi says:
Defining success
Assessing the extent to which Gandhi's ideas of satyagraha were or were not successful in the Indian independence struggle is a complex task. Judith Brown has suggested that "this is a political strategy and technique which, for its outcomes, depends greatly on historical specificities." The view taken by Gandhi differs from the idea that the goal in any conflict is necessarily to defeat the opponent or frustrate the opponent's objectives, or to meet one's own objectives despite the efforts of the opponent to obstruct these. In satyagraha, by contrast, "The Satyagrahi's object is to convert, not to coerce, the wrong doer." The opponent must be converted, at least as far as to stop obstructing the just end, for this cooperation to take place. There are cases, to be sure, when an opponent, e. g. a dictator, has to be unseated and one cannot wait to convert him. The satyagrahi'' would count this a partial success.
1935 жылдың қыркүйегінде П. Коданда Раоға жазған хатында Ганди өзінің азаматтық мойынсұнбау идеясы Генри Дэвид Тороның жазбаларынан, әсіресе 1849 жылы жарияланған "Азаматтық мойынсұнбау" эссесінен алынған деген пікірді жоққа шығарды. Ганди оны былайша сипаттады:
Form of nonviolent resistance practised during British colonial rule in India
Satyāgraha (; satya: "truth", āgraha: "insistence" or "holding firmly to"), or "holding firmly to truth",' or "truth force", is a particular form of nonviolent resistance or civil resistance. Someone who practises satyagraha is a satyagrahi'. The term satyagraha was coined and developed by Mahatma Gandhi (1869–1948), who practised satyagraha in the Indian independence movement and also during his earlier struggles in South Africa for Indian rights. Satyagraha theory influenced Martin Luther King Jr.'s and James Bevel's campaigns during the Civil Rights Movement in the United States, as well as Nelson Mandela's struggle against apartheid in South Africa and many other social justice and similar movements. Principles
Gandhi envisioned satyagraha as not only a tactic to be used in acute political struggle but as a universal solvent for injustice and harm. He founded the Sabarmati Ashram to teach satyagraha. He asked satyagrahis to follow the following principles (Yamas described in Yoga Sutra):
Nonviolence (ahimsa)
Truth – this includes honesty, but goes beyond it to mean living fully in accord with and in devotion to that which is true
Not stealing
Non possession (not the same as poverty)
Body labour or bread labour
Control of desires (gluttony)
Fearlessness
Equal respect for all religions
Economic strategy such as boycotts of imported goods (swadeshi)
On another occasion, he listed these rules as "essential for every Satyagrahi in India":
Must have a living faith in God
Must be leading a chaste life and be willing to die or lose all his possessions
Must be a habitual khadi weaver and spinner
Must abstain from alcohol and other intoxicants
Rules for satyagraha campaigns
Gandhi proposed a series of rules for satyagrahis to follow in a resistance campaign:
For Gandhi, satyagraha went far beyond mere "passive resistance" and became strength in practising non violent methods. In his words:
In September 1935, in a letter to P. Kodanda Rao, Servants of India Society, Gandhi disputed the proposition that his idea of civil disobedience was adapted from the writings of Henry David Thoreau, especially the essay Civil Disobedience published in 1849. Gandhi described it as follows:

Gandhi envisioned satyagraha as not only a tactic to be used in acute political struggle but as a universal solvent for injustice and harm. He founded the Sabarmati Ashram to teach satyagraha. He asked satyagrahis to follow the following principles (Yamas described in Yoga Sutra):
Nonviolence (ahimsa)
Truth – this includes honesty, but goes beyond it to mean living fully in accord with and in devotion to that which is true
Not stealing
Non possession (not the same as poverty)
Body labour or bread labour

Гандидің сатьяграха идеясының Үндістанның тәуелсіздік күресінде қаншалықты табысты болғанын немесе болмағанын бағалау – күрделі мәселе. Джудит Браун "бұл саяси стратегия және техника, оның нәтижесі тарихи ерекшеліктерге байланысты" деп болжады. Гандидің көзқарасы кез келген қақтығыстың мақсаты қарсыласты жеңу немесе қарсыластың мақсаттарын бұзу, немесе қарсыластың кедергі келтіруіне қарамастан, өз мақсаттарына жету деген ойдан өзгеше. Сатьяграхада "сатьяграхидің мақсаты – қателік жасаған адамды мәжбүрлеу емес, қайта, оны сендіру". Бұл ынтымақтастық үшін қарсыласты, кем дегенде, әділ мақсатқа кедергі жасамауға дейін, қайтадан қабылдауы керек. Әрине, қарсыласты, мысалы диктаторды, құлату керек болған және оны қайтару үшін күтуге болмайтын жағдайлар бар. Сатьяграхилер мұны ішінара сәттілік деп есептейді.

Құралдар мен мақсаттар
Сатьяграха теориясы мақсат пен құралдарды ажырамас байланыста қарастырады, себебі мақсатқа жету жолы мен әдістері сол мақсаттың ішінде болады және оған тікелей байланысты. Сондықтан, әділдікке қол жеткізу үшін әділетсіз құралдарды пайдалану немесе бейбітшілікке жету үшін зорлық-зомбылық қолдану – өзара қайшы келеді. Ганди былай деп жазған: "Кейбіздер 'құралдар – тек құралдар ғана' дейді. Мен 'құралдар – бәрінің өзі' деймін. Құралдар қандай болса, нәтиже де сондай болады." Мақсат пен құралдарды бөліп қарау Гандидің дуальді емес (Адвайта) тұжырымдамасының негізіне дуалдық пен үйлесімсіздік енгізумен тең. Ганди мұны мысалмен түсіндірді: "Егер мен сіздің сағатыңызды тартып алмақ болсам, оны алу үшін күресуім керек; егер сатып алмақ болсам, төлем жасауым керек; ал сый ретінде алғым келсе, өтініш етуім керек. Мен қолданатын құралдарға байланысты, сағат ұрланған мүлік, менікі немесе сыйлық болады." Ганди "қажет болған жағдайда кез келген құралды қолдану арқылы" әділетсіздікке қарсы күресуге болатын деген пікірді қабылдамады. Егер зорлық-зомбылық, мәжбүрлеу, әділетсіз құралдар қолданылса, қандай нәтижеге жетсеңіз де, ол әділетсіздіктің ішінде болады. Алайда, сол кітапта Ганди машиналардың жаман екенін айтса да, олардың машиналар арқылы жасалғанын мойындайды және олар ешқандай жақсылыққа пайдаланбайды дейді. Сондықтан ол: "кейде уды уды өлтіру үшін қолданылады" дейді, және осы себепті машиналар жаман деп есептелгенше, олар өздеріне-өздеріне зиян келтіру үшін қолданылуы мүмкін.
The theory of satyagraha sees means and ends as inseparable obtain an end are wrapped up in and attached to that end. Therefore, it is contradictory to try to use unjust means to obtain justice or to try to use violence to obtain peace. As Gandhi wrote: "They say, 'means are, after all, means'. I would say, 'means are, after all, everything'. As the means so the end. Separating means and ends would ultimately amount to introducing a form of duality and inconsistency at the core of Gandhi's non dual (Advaitic) conception. Gandhi used an example to explain this: "If I want to deprive you of your watch, I shall certainly have to fight for it; if I want to buy your watch, I shall have to pay for it; and if I want a gift, I shall have to plead for it; and, according to the means I employ, the watch is stolen property, my own property, or a donation." Gandhi rejected the idea that injustice should, or even could, be fought against "by any means necessary"—if you use violent, coercive, unjust means, whatever ends you produce will necessarily embed that injustice. However, in the same book Gandhi admits that even though his book argues that machinery is bad, it was produced by machinery, which he says can do nothing good. Thus, he says, "sometimes poison is used to kill poison" and for that reason as long as machinery is viewed as bad it can be used to undo itself.
Сатьяграха мен дураграха
Сатьяграханың мәні – қарсыластарға зиян келтірмей, оларды жоюға емес, қайта олармен арадағы антагонизмді жоюға бағытталғандығында. Бұл, қарсыласына зиян келтіруді мақсат тұтатын күш қолдануға қарсы тұрады. Сондықтан сатьяграхи қарсыласпен қарым-қатынасты тоқтатуға не жоюға тырыспайды, керісінше оны жоғары деңгейге өзгертуге немесе «тазартуға» ұмтылады. Сатьяграханы сипаттау үшін кейде «ұнсыз күш» немесе «жан күші» (Мартин Лютер Кинг өзінің танымал «Менің арманым бар» сөзінде қолданған термин) деген эвфемизмдер қолданылады. Ол адамға физикалық емес, моральдық күш сыйлайды. Сатьяграха «әмбебап күш» деп те аталады, себебі ол негізінен «туыс-туғандық, жас-кәрілік, ер-әйел, дос-жау арасында ешқандай айырма жасамайды». Ганди сатьяграханы (ақиқатты ұстану) «дураграхамен» (күшпен ұстану) салыстырды, наразылықтың мақсаты оппоненттерді ағарту емес, оларды мазалау болса, онда бұл дураграха болады. Ол былай деп жазды: «Шыдамсыздық, қатыгездік, өршілдік, артық қысым көрсетуге болмайды. Егер біз шынайы демократиялық рухты дамытқымыз келсе, төзімділік танытуға тиіспіз. Төзімсіздік – өзіңнің ісіңе сенімсіздіктің белгісі». Сатьяграха аясында жүзеге асырылатын азаматтық мойынсұнбаушылық және ынтымақтастықтан бас тарту «заңды күйреу» негізінде құрылған, яғни күйреуді қабылдау – мақсатқа жетудің бір жолы. Бұл мақсат көбінесе жеке тұлғаның немесе қоғамның рухани жаңаруын немесе дамуын білдіреді. Сондықтан сатьяграханың ынтымақтастықтан бас тартуы – оппоненттің ақиқат пен әділдікке сай ынтымақтастығын қамтамасыз етудің бір жолы болып табылады.
The essence of satyagraha is that it seeks to eliminate antagonisms without harming the antagonists themselves, as opposed to violent resistance, which is meant to cause harm to the antagonist. A satyagrahi therefore does not seek to end or destroy the relationship with the antagonist, but instead seeks to transform or "purify" it to a higher level. A euphemism sometimes used for satyagraha is that it is a "silent force" or a "soul force" (a term also used by Martin Luther King Jr. during his famous "I Have a Dream" speech). It arms the individual with moral power rather than physical power. Satyagraha is also termed a "universal force," as it essentially "makes no distinction between kinsmen and strangers, young and old, man and woman, friend and foe." Gandhi contrasted satyagraha (holding on to truth) with "duragraha" (holding on by force), as in protest meant more to harass than enlighten opponents. He wrote: "There must be no impatience, no barbarity, no insolence, no undue pressure. If we want to cultivate a true spirit of democracy, we cannot afford to be intolerant. Intolerance betrays want of faith in one's cause." Civil disobedience and non cooperation as practised under satyagraha are based on the "law of suffering", a doctrine that the endurance of suffering is a means to an end. This end usually implies a moral uplift or progress of an individual or society. Therefore, the non cooperation of satyagraha is in fact a means to secure the cooperation of the opponent that is consistent with truth and justice.
Америка азаматтық құқық қозғалысы
Сатьяграха теориясы зорлықсыздық пен азаматтық қарсылықтың көптеген басқа да қозғалыстарына әсер етті. Мысалы, Мартин Лютер Кинг АҚШ-тағы Азаматтық құқықтар қозғалысына қатысты өз идеяларын қалыптастыруда Гандидің ықпалы туралы былай деп жазды:
Satyagraha theory also influenced many other movements of nonviolence and civil resistance. For example, Martin Luther King Jr. wrote about Gandhi's influence on his developing ideas regarding the Civil Rights Movement in the United States:
