The impact of Mahatma Gandhi on the world has been extraordinary.
His use of non-violent resistance in leading India to
freedom inspired future leaders like Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela,
and set an example for freedom movements throughout the world. As a
pioneer of the philosophies of Satyagraha, and Ahimsa, Gandhi's life
is an example of
|
unfaltering commitment to non-violence even in the
most extreme situations.
There are many
pictures of the beloved 'Father of the Nation'
but this fine official portrait, perfectly
captures the sublime sense of simplicity,
gentleness and inner strength that characterized
his life.
