I come from the land of Gandhi and he has been one of the BIGGEST (The font limits me in size to describe..how big..)..influences in my life. Sadly here...Gandhi is now more of a FAD than a reality. Youth of this country, when asked about who Gandhi was..., Would honestly say that...he was a person from the medieval period or some person who lived 500 years ago. No irony when i say this. Little do they know that this small thin man brought the Mighty british empire to its Knees...(Literally) Good going mate. Keep the blogging going.. cheers Ramesh Looks like i am devouring your site ever since i discovered it a few days ago.

And look, Gandhi is not communist or racist like someone else said here. He co-founded the Indian National CONGRESS. He believed in peace and non-violence. If you check historic records, you could know that Gandhi was not happy with the partition and actually, he gave consent since there was a lot of violence because of it (Muslims needed Pakistan). He was spiritual and believed in meditation and other values. He's simple in his life and dressing. Never in his life, has he become agitated or angry. He always projected calmness and tranquility. Its unfortunate people turn against these people. Gandhi, Lincoln & Nicola Tesla are my biggest influences Great post Leo. And look, Gandhi is not communist or racist like someone else said here.
