Mahatma Gandhi was born on October 2, 1869, in Porbunder, a small town in Gujarat. He studied law in U.K and practiced law in South Africa. In his autobiography “My experiments with Truth”, Gandhiji read his childhood and teenage years, his marriage with Kasturba at the age of 13 and a pure devotion to his country. Gandhiji was a pathfinder of truth and non-violence and he sets an example of easy sustenance and noble thinking. He started the ‘Satyagraha’ (non-violence) movement for the Indian freedom fight and played a vital role in obtaining freedom for the country from British rule. He showed the world that freedom could be achieved by following the path of absolute non-violence. Violence was against his conscience and he always chose to keep his inner conscience bove everything. This teaches us that we too should listen to our inner conscience before taking crucial steps or making important decisions of our life.
“Morality is the basis of things and truth is the substance of all morality.”
-Mahatma Gandhi
