Mahatma Gandhi is a great person.  He left India and went to the best Law School in Europe and got his law degree.  He would be funny arguing to get out of a parking ticket though?  He came back to India and used his knowledge, will , passion to free his entire country.  He started one of the greatest resistances of all time.  It was called Passifist resistance.  Where you don't physically fight the power you just refuse to do what say.  Martin Luther King Jr. did the same thing.

Mahatma Gandhi said "An eye for an eye will make the world blind" .  Revengeful reactions will never end. If an individual try to avenge a particular action , it will become endless and whole humanity gets affected.

Gandhi was a humble man that walked around with no foot wear, and simple clothes!  Given how much time he spent going from place top place to spread his philosophy...one could say he was \n\nSUPER CALOUSED!  Keep in mind that he went around bare footed.\n\nGiven the fact that he lived to a ripe old age on a diet of herbs and vegies, since he wasn't for killing creatures just to feed himself, One could also say he was...\n\nFRAGILE! Keep in mind he was peace loving!\n\nThrough the pondering levels of his philosophies, and in depth thinking amazed many...this led mant to call him a...\n\nMYSTIC!\n\nDue to the nature of his diet, and lack of hygene availability, he was also unfortunately...\n\nHEXED WITH HALITOSIS!\n\n\nOh my goodness, if we put it all together, one could describe Gandhi as...\n\nSUPER CALOUSED FRAGILE MYSTIC, HEXED WITH HALITOSIS!\n\n\n\n\n(Supercalifagilisticexpialidocious)\n\n\nHave a great day!

all men were great contributors to history.  Gandhi used a passive way to get his point across and fight for people's rights, as did Martin Luther King and Thoreau. Try adding that they all spoke to people (Thoreau through writing) and told them of hardships and how they would aqccomplish them by not resorting to violence.  For Example, Gandhi would try to get thorugh the guards (in the movie) and the guards would push them back, but Gandhi and his men never fought back. King never fought to start violence and got involved with the sit-ins because they did not promote violence, and Thoreau ran off to the woods to live by himself almost as a hermit to get away from a violent society as a whole.  They all wanted people's rights, but used a passive voice to get them.  \n\nTry searching quotes from the movie "Gandhi", loo up the sit-ins of the 1950s, and read a bit of Thoreau's piece "Into the Woods."  You can find aqll of these online. I hope this helps.

That’s a tough question since both are iconic figures who contributed so much to the betterment of humanity. I suppose I would save Gandhi because his vision was far broader in scope than Martin Luther King Jr. Martin Luther King Jr. inspired the civil rights movement in this country, but Gandhi compelled the act of civil disobedience around the world. If you look around the globe, at any group, in any country, where civil obedience is practiced, outside of the United States, they will always cite Gandhi as their primary example and inspiration.

Yes, some of Gandhi’s philosophy is practical and has been used to bring about change in modern history.  Martin Luther King, Jr. followed Gandhi’s philosophy of change through peaceful non-violent resistance.   More recently, Ukrainian people followed this same philosophy to gain independence from Russia. Much of Gandhi’s philosophies, such as his views on truth, trust, and having no secrets aren’t realistic so they never were very practical or useful.  Everyone has secrets and everyone lies to one degree or another which makes trust very difficult.

Gandhi was called Mahatma by several people. -\n\n1) Rabindranath Tagore-\nIn 1914 Gandhi returned to India. Through Andrews he met Rabindranath Tagore the following year, who called Gandhi a mahatma, "great soul," as the Theosophists had in South Africa. He was to become for millions of Indians simply the Mahatma. In 1919 he announced a Satyagraha struggle, resulting in the Amritsar massacre. By 1920 he was the dominant political figure, and the major campaigns of 1920-22, 1930-34, and 1940-42 led to British abdication. From the 1930's he was based at Sevagram, a village in central India, where he worked on a "constructive programme" to educate rural India, develop cottage industries, and fight untouchability.\n\n2)The Indian people called Gandhi Mahatma, meaning Great Soul. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was better known as Mahatma Gandhi. "Mahatma" means "Great-Souled One." His followers and admirers adorned him with this significant title, but the Mahatma's soulful humility vehemently disclaimed the title. To be absolutely correct, Mahatma Gandhi had two more names: Ahimsa, Non-Violence, and Satyagraha, Soul-Force.  \n\n3) In another context I read that Netaji Subash bose Called him first as Mahatma-

He was a simple man who changed the destiny of India. He was unlike any politician or public figure anywhere in the world becuase he was an absolute antithesis of public leaders what we see today. Dressed in a small loin cloth he has a huge determination and innovative ways of fighting a freedom struggle. Isntead of guns, he fought the Britishers with weapons like non cooperation and non violence.  You got to read about him a lot to understand his philosophy becuase otherwise you wont understand him as most people in India and other countries dont.

Gandhiji's ideas were noble....but I dont think they really fit in todays world..also he had many dark sides of his personality.\n\nWe need to follow Krishna in Kaliyuga.
