(Satyannand), 1882-1946, of Philadelphia, arrived in India in 1904 as a missionary and social worker. Settling near Kotgarh, Simla, he began to live a simple life as an Indian and married an Indian Christian in 1912. He joined the Indian National Congress and was elected a member of the All India Congress Committee. He met Gandhiji in 1921 and supported his leadership of the non-cooperation movement, despite some differences of opinion. Mr. Stokes was jailed for six months in 1921. He and his family converted to Hinduism in 1932 and he adopted the name "Satyanand". He felt that as a Hindu he could better deliver the message of Jesus to the Hindus.)
