so sad that while the rest of the world (most) understands and reveres the principles of non-violence and civil disobedience mastered by Gandhi while some of the Indians seem to be completely oblivious of these principles and the contributions of Gandhi.. especially the current generation.

I didn't realize the Significance until I read that a couple of times. But it does seems like the Khojas or Khwajas ( his paternal grandfather's side ) actually originated as Hindus and I suspect must've converted to Islam at some point - as opposed to the persians ( muslims ) incursions into India. Not that it really matters but certainly is an interesting observation. Also there are tons of Khwajas all over the place including Africa and Australia - and at least now I know where they originated from. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khoja |

When I want to take positive thought from others, I take the Gandhi as "Do it and say it to do" and His way of using the truth and non-violence as the weapons of managing the struggle. Many may talk odd about Gandhi, King Jr. But they are the heros by nature.. we gotta learn a lot from them.. This is a good movie to inspire us. For the few bucks, we get more wealth of knowledge.. Good find OP.
