Mme. Naidu called for prayer before the march started and the entire assemblage knelt. She
exhorted them: "Gandhi's body is in jail but his soul is with you. India's prestige is in your hands. You
must not use any violence under any circumstances. You will be beaten but you must not resist; you must
not even raise a hand to ward off blows." Wild, shrill cheers terminated her speech
In complete silence the Gandhi men drew up and halted a hundred yards from the stockade
(surrounding the Dharasana Salt Works) Suddenly, at a word of command, scores of native police rushed
upon the advancing marchers and rained blows on their heads with their steel-shod (clubs). Not one of the
marchers even raised an arm to fend off the blows The survivors without breaking ranks silently and
doggedly marched on until struck down The blankets used as stretchers were sodden with blood.
At times the spectacle of unresisting men being methodically bashed into a bloody pulp sickened
me so much that I had to turn away. The Western mind finds it difficult to grasp the idea of nonresistance.
