apoorva, have you READ the book?
I have read the official english translation (I think he wrote it in Gujarati) published by the Gandhi foundation.
It's more like a big confession by Gandhi. Some interesting highlights:

1. Gandhi says it "pains him" that people call him the Mahatma. Imagine, we actually think that we are honouring him by calling him that !

2. He states clearly that the purpose of him outlining all his mistakes is so as to enlighten others and that they may not do the same mistakes.

Do read the book all of you. It's price is very nominal. I think it is subsidised.
