Heya..!!
Here's the answer...
The life of Mahatma Gandhi should serve as a beacon of light to guide humanity to a better world. He taught a lesson to all political leaders on how to work great social and political changes for the betterment of humanity in every walk of life. He said, “An India awakened and free has a message of peace and goodwill to give to a groaning world.”
According to one writer: “If Gandhi had lived in India thousands of years ago, his life would have been wrapped in myths and miracles.” But Mahatma Gandhi is a man of our times, “which shows that his origin was ordinary, his childhood normal, his student days uneventful, and his early professional career unsuccessful. Yet, he “was the spokesman for the conscience of mankind.”
One of Gandhiji’s principles is Satyagraha. Satya means Truth and agraha means firmness or force. Racial discrimination in South Africa awakened Gandhiji’s social conscience and this lead him to coin this word. Satyagraha is also translated as Soul-Force.He not only preached the tenets of Satyagraha, but also lived and acted them. He showed by actual examples how these basic principles could be used to transform the world into a better place. As Gandhiji wrote, “Satyagraha is the vindication of truth not by infliction of suffering on the opponent but on one’s self.” This principle reverses the idea of an-eye-for-an-eye policy which, as he says ends in making everybody blind, or blind with fury. Instead, it returns good for evil until the evildoer tires of evil. (Fischer).
Gandhiji preached this idea over a century ago, but this an-eye-for-an-eye vindication is everywhere in the world today. Isn’t this policymaking all of us blind in the world today. Furthermore, he calls it a force which can not only be used by individuals, but by communities – men women and children.
Thanks :)
