==Idea of Satyagraha==
===What is
In most conflict, the goal is to defeat the [[enemy]], to stop him from meeting his goal, or to meet a goal that the enemy is trying to stop. But in ''Satyagraha'', these are not the goals. 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.
