520 _aConflict is an unavoidable in human life; none otherless, man has endeavoured to resolve conflicts from the dawn of time. Conflict can be resolved in one of two ways: through violence or through nonviolent measures. As humans, we are continually faced with the decision of whether to resolve disputes through violence or nonviolent means. Several scholars and individuals have articulated the nonviolent method of resolving conflicts before and after Gandhi, but Gandhi was one of the few people who not only spoke and wrote about it, but also proved it in his thoughts, words, and deeds. Gandhi is praised for his decision to resolve conflicts by nonviolent means, which he called Satyagraha. Gandhi had the firm belief that human beings were basically good and humanity essentially had a nonviolent nature. The underlying origins of conflict are distrust and friction and hence the Gandhian technique of conflict resolution does not focus on the immediate grievances of the disagreement; it goes beyond that to look at the underlying sources of the conflict as well. Satyagraha essentially is a nonviolent method that touches all three aspects: the attitude, the behaviour and the goal incompatibility and can be applied to smaller as well as larger disputes occurring in different areas of human life.
