Today marks Mahatma Gandhiji's 140th birthday. Most of what we enjoy today is largely due to his life's work. It must have taken substantial courage to gather the masses for a great cause. Many sacrifices must have been made along the way too. When it came down to choosing between what was easy and what was right, Gandhiji chose the later. This is probably why we address him as "Mahatma".
The least I could to do salute the man and his efforts were to close my eyes and listen to his favourite bhajan.
Eeshwar Allah
"Sabko sanmati de baghwan". Sanmati, it stands for peace evoking thoughts. In times like these, this would most certainly help.
I also picked up a clip from one of the Hindi movies.
Very nicely put. The world would be a better place if we could go about doings things in a peaceful manner, wouldn't it?
Happy b'day Bapuji.
