Gandhi's Life in His Own Words Kindle Edition [amazon.com] - $0.21
by Mahatma Gandhi (Author)

My uniform experience has convinced me that there is no other God than Truth. And if every page of these chapters does not proclaim to the reader that the only means for the realization of Truth is ahimsa, I shall deem all my labour in writing these chapters to have been in vain. And, even though my efforts in this behalf may prove fruitless, let the readers know that the vehicle, not the great principle, is at fault.
- M. K. Gandhi

If I recalled correctly he was racist against Africans/Blacks. Called them all dirty and or animals. I believe he also put a young girl in his room to see if he could resist his urges. Don't quote me, she may have been related.

When I was young, I was rather forced to read these kind of biographies. Honestly, it's all bs. It only shows one side of stories. Yes, they have big accomplishments, but it rarely talks about their dark side. So, what lessons do these give ultimately? The result justifies the mean? Well, I guess that's true.

Quote from PpP5661 :
Might use that perspective of yours and see that I'm just stating facts. I still respect the good deeds he has done and realize that we are all imperfect. Btw, I do not care for millions to know me or nor do I care for fame. Better to be a decent human being and live your life in peace and happiness. Just some perspective for you.

You replied to wrong person bro. I have never said anything on your post

You understand that you are writing this using a pseudo name whereas he is Gandhi (known to billions around world) - just trying to put things in perspective Wink
