HAPPY BIRTHDAY GANDHI!
Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, born on October 2, 1869 in Porbandar, Gujarat, was one of most influential and spiritual leaders during the Indian Independence Movement.
Today is his 142nd birthday.“Gandhi strove to practice non-violence and truth in all situations, and advocated that others do the same. He lived modestly in a self-sufficient residential community and wore the traditional Indian dhoti and shawl, woven with yarn he had hand spun on a charkha. He ate simple vegetarian food, and also undertook long fasts as means of both self-purification and social protest.” (x)
Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well.
- Mahatma Gandhiji
