Mahatma Gandhi (Great Soul) was born in Porbandar, 1869, and died in 1948, when a Hindu nationalist assassinated him.

He studied law in London and practised as a barrister for a while before settling in South Africa. Here he opposed racial discrimination in the Indian Community, which he lived until 1914.

As an Indian Nationalist Leader, he led the struggle for Indian independence from the UK by advocating nonviolent noncooperation from 1915. He organized hunger strikes and events of civil disobedience and campaigned for social reform.

His protest march in 1930 inspired widespread demonstrations. He was imprisoned several times by British authorities and was highly influential in the Nationalist Congress Party and the independence negotiations in 1947.

He is regarded as a founder of the Indian State for his leadership.

Quotations from Mahatma Gandhi:

 We must become the change we want to see in the world.

Mahatma Gandhi, (1869 - 1948) Indian Nationalist Leader



 Your beliefs become your thoughts, Your thoughts become your words, Your words become your actions, Your actions become your habits, Your habits become your values, Your values become your destiny.

Mahatma Gandhi, (1869 - 1948) Indian Nationalist Leader



 You may never know what results come of your action, but if you do nothing there will be no result.

Mahatma Gandhi, (1869 - 1948) Indian Nationalist Leader



 There is more to life than increasing its speed.

Mahatma Gandhi, (1869 - 1948) Indian Nationalist Leader



 Service which is rendered without joy helps neither the one who serves nor the served, but all pleasures and possessions pale into nothingness before service which is rendered in a spirit of joy.

Mahatma Gandhi, (1869 - 1948) Indian Nationalist Leader
