Dear Bapu:
I hope this letter finds you doing good deeds as you always did when you
were on Earth. Your life has been an inspiration not only for Indians, but for
people from all other countries as well. You are an epitome of many virtues,
self-less actions, and peace-spreading thoughts. No wonder you are called
Mahatma (The Great Soul) by the entire world. People are born; people die. But
some people after they are gone leave behind them a trail of light that illumines
the path for the striving followers. Longfellow has praised such people in
his poem, 'A Psalm of Life'. He says,
" And, departing, leave behind us
Footprints on the sands of time;"
The above written lines aptly describe the sublimity of your life. You were a
great soul whose philosophy and ideology influenced the world considerably. You
practiced non-violence and tried to resist all opposition spiritually. You
believed in overcoming fear, dependence on others through self-reliance and
self- industry. You successfully resisted the British injustice, aggression,
oppression using non-violence and satayagreh. Ultimately you succeeded in
winning Independence from the British. Your philosophy and ideology were
adopted by many great leaders of the world. Leo Tolstoy, Martin Luther King,
Nelson Mandela, etc, successfully adopted and practiced his teachings. The
world acknowledges your contributions to mankind even in modern times.
Your ideology is universal which is
relevant for all times. People know very little about your subtly powerful and
pragmatic ideology. If your ideology were not effective, the world would not
have accorded you the title of Mahatma. Your ideology is admired throughout the
world for its universal and spiritual appeal. Its relevance in the contemporary
turbulent times is more than it was in the past.
If your famous ideology of non-violence is practiced by each individual, state,
and country in the world, conflicts, wars, violence, etc will be wiped from the
face of the earth. People will live in a securer and happier world!
Similarly, your ideology on vegetarianism, truthfulness, self-government, self-reliance, observing silence, cleanliness, etc, holds solutions to almost all the problems afflicting people in the modern times. If put into practice, they have the power to enable the modern man enjoy life holistically. There is inspiration in everything you did. Bapu you really inspire me. Thanks for being the inspiration of the world.
Yours devotedly,

Dear Mahatmajee,
If you don't mind acknowledge my respectful Namaskar.
I am writing this letter to let you know that you have always inspired me. Whenever I read about you, it always made me meet you at least once in my life time.
You are a great leader and you are someone who lived a very selfless life which was for not for himself but for other people. You were always determined in whatever you do and is someone who has a very strong will power.
Being true to myself and everyone around is what I learned from you. Belonging to such a simple family and having such a simple life you still gave preference to the studies and acquired the best education possible.
You are my role model when it comes to simple living and high thinking, even with the simple lifestyle you had so much exposure in life.
I also came to know that you were a good writer as well which inspires me to be versatile and participate in as many good causes as I can.
Above all the biggest amazing trait of yours which I never forget to mention is that your brought change in the world without any violent activities which is just remarkable. Even after you left this world you inspire you many people. Today in a world of so many advancements I still wish and hope to become like you.
I hope and wish you were here with us so that you could teach us more of your beliefs to us.
Yours sincerely,
your name
