Mahatma Gandhi was shot on this day on January 30 in 1948. He was determined to
seek freedom for India from the mighty Great Britain, and he got it without the
war and without bloodshed. His was one of the greatest successful experiments
in non-violence. I hope President Obama
follows him, we don’t need the senseless wars with any one, the best way to
eliminate the enemy is to make friends with him, and it is the smartest thing
to do.
Can
you imagine the power he had? He shook the empire, they could have easily killed
or poisoned him, but they did not have the guts to do that. What made Gandhi,
Mandela, and MLK successful?

None
of them had anything to gain, all they wanted was justice and harmony in the
society, and that was their drive, when you become unselfish, you can do a lot
of good to the world. I am inspired and driven by him. Twice in my dreams, he
has appeared and patted on my back and said, son you got a lot of work to do.
Indeed, I do, we all need to do our share of work in making the world a better
place, at least around us. It begins with learning the respect the otherness of
other and accepting the God given uniqueness to each one of us, if we do that,
conflicts fade and solutions emerge.

The
frightened ones (right wing) in India did not like Gandhi’s dialogue approach
to conflicts, they wanted bloodshed and mayhem, the animalistic way of
resolving disputes, Gandhi pushed dialogue, the human way to finding solutions
to conflict.
