Mahatma Gandhi has given many lessons to his disciples, countrymen, and mankind. Those lessons if followed or practiced meticulously, can lead to prosperity, contentment, and happy life. Let’s see a few of the many good lessons taught by Mahatma Gandhi to the coming generations:
1. Non-violence: Mahatma Gandhi has taught mankind to follow the path of non-violence, especially dealing with violent and critical situations. It is true, violence can be overcome through non-violence only. He proved it through his life. If all the people, societies, countries practice non-violence, this world of ours will become a heaven of peace. I would like to practice his lesson of non-violence in my life and be a good citizen.
2. Simple Living and High Thinking: Gandhi Ji stressed upon the principle of ‘Simple Living and High Thinking’. Many of the unnecessary stresses, conflicts, and tensions can be kept at bay by practice this lesson. I would also like to adopt it.
3. Gandhi also taught his countrymen the lessons of self-reliance, forgiveness, positive thinking, etc.
Adopting any one or two lessons from the Mahatma’s lessons and practicing them sincerely have the potential to make India happy an prosperous. The lesson he taught on self-reliance, alone is sufficient to make India happy and prosperous.
