Dear Bapu,
Today I was thinking of all the great kings, leaders and warriors of history. From ancient times to the post modern age of today. Many ancient civilizations lay in ruins. Their language and their achievements vanished. Great empires like the Assyrians and the Babylonians are mere objects for historians and archeologists. I thought of Alexander the Great. He too is gone and so is his empire. The same goes for the once mighty Roman Empire. But Dear Bapu, you are immortal. You still stand tallest among them all. None can compare to you.
I have never written to you before. But today, I sat down on my study table determined to write a few words to you. This letter is written with much love and affection from the depth of my heart. Dear Bapu, I am writing this letter to you to express my gratitude to you for inspiring me and to express my appreciation to you for everything you have done for the freedom of our country. You are indeed a the great soul and rightfully the Father of this great nation. Your philosophy of truth and non-violence that paved the way for the freedom from the British rule.
Your birth anniversary, Gandhi Jayanti, is celebrated on October 2 as a national event across India. This day is observed across the entire world as the International Day of Non-violence.
Dear Bapu, your Salt March from the month of March to April 1930 in India, was an act of civil disobedience to protest the British rule in India. It was one of the first major demonstrations of nonviolent resistance to the British colonial rule led by you. Your Non-cooperation Movement against the British proved to be a powerful weapon. By this the Indian independence movement gained more followers. The zeal for independence increased in momentum.
Your non-violence and satyagraha policy lead India to achieve Independence without shedding a drop of blood. India achieved freedom in August, 1947. Your philosophy of non-voilence is admired across the world. It has been adopted by many civil and political groups to stage protest against injustice and powerful corrupt leaders.
You believed that all human beings are God’s special people and must be treated equally irrespective of their caste, color, language, creed, region, and religion.
Dear Babu, you are immortal. You will always live in our hearts. Your memory will always be cherished. You will always be remembered for your selfless love for the country and her citizens, your humility, your truth and non-violence, and for your tireless efforts to remove discrimination from every corner of our Motherland. Generations after generations will come. They will all wonder that someone like you once walked on this Earth to overcome wars with non-violence.
Dear Bapu, today India is a sovereign nation. She is one of the greatest countries in the world. We are a free people living in a free country of equality, liberty and dignity. We are no longer ashamed to be Indians and we declare to the entire world that we are proud to Indians. We owe you for what we have become today as a nation and as a people.
Your life, your sacrifice and your noble principles have inspired me and also changed my way of thinking. You are my role model and I will always try to follow your footsteps.
Yours affectionately,
Dhiraj, a proud Indian,
