Mahatma Gandhi has been one of the greatest visionaries born. Today, the path and means used by Mahatma Gandhi have become more relevant not just in India, but globally as the mankind grapples with seemingly intractable problems. These were the views of Prof B K Kuthiala, Chairman, Haryana State Higher Education Council who was delivering an expository talk on “Learnings From the Life of Mohandas Karachand Gandhi”. Prof Kuthiala, in his imitable style, opined that in spearheading the campaign against the alien rule, Gandhiji adopted the innovative method of civil disobedience and social transformation, which had several exemplary features which will remain perpetually relevant for mankind. Gandhi ji was proud of India’s ancient heritage and, as such, he was acutely conscious of the glaring contrast presented by contemporary society. Tracing his childhood, Prof Kuthiala enumerated on numerous influences of his family and neighbourhood in shaping his personality. Gandhi ji’s inspirational words and philosophies attracted people in an instant and motivated them to live their lives based on his strong principles. Gandhi’s memoirs have been appreciated as one of the most influential, encouraging and heartening memories ever.
