Ashram Bhajanavali, Mahatma Gandhi's own compiled collection of devotional hymns for ashram worship, published by Navajivan Publishing House, is a primary document: the actual hymnal Gandhi assembled for daily use rather than a later description of his religious practice. Its strength is that it is the primary artifact itself. Its limit is that a compiled hymnal documents which hymns were sung, not why Gandhi chose them or how they were used in practice, which independent scholarship on Gandhi's religious life should supply; no publication year is given here because the collection went through multiple printings, and this record is not tied to any one dated edition.
