5. Introduction
• Youth is consciousness of power- power to GROW,
power to CONCEIVE infinitely, and to BRING FORTH
UNLIMITEDLY that which the soul desires. Probably
the happiest period in life most frequently is in age,
when the eager passions of are cooled, and the
informative of age not yet begun; as we see that the
shadows, which are at morning and evening so large,
almost entirely disappear at midday.

soldiers to achieve their demands as well as to set the
subcontinent free.

endeavors, swadeshi, dandi chalo. Though these
footprints to our liberty were delineated by Mahatma

culminated. And these mischances gave birth too many
