===Main Points of Satyagraha ===
In ''Satyagraha', the goal, Gandhi said, is to change the mind of the wrong-doer, not to force him.<ref>"The Satyagrahi’s object is to convert, not to coerce, the wrong-doer. Gandhi, M.K. “Requisite Qualifications” ''Harijan'' 25 March 1939</ref> Winning means getting along with the enemy to make what is wrong right again, which they might not realize is wrong. For this to happen, the enemy's mind must change to realize that he is stopping a goal that is right.
# Nonviolence ([[ahimsa]])
# Truth — this includes honesty, but also means living fully for what is true, and agreeing with it
