Beautiful piece about Bapu.I like the sentence..he taught the world and got our freedom by non violence.He is like our family member, Yes, very true.Wish someone of that calibre would save the country from corrupt politicians.

Dear Shyamala,

Glad you liked the piece on Bapuji. Yeah, I know. But we just keep on waiting for someone. All of us need to do little things in our own little ways. Don't you think so?

Nice Day

Dear shail,
So happy to see you here with a wonderful post bringing to our memory a great soul.
Gandhi is, to my mind, the gold standard of 20th-century political greatness. He produced tremendous effects, overwhelmingly good, and he achieved them not by luck, force or guile but virtuously, by persuasion and example. Martin Luther King is perhaps his peer in these respects, but the scale of Gandhi’s accomplishment was much greater.Mahatma had a remarkable capacity for compromise, and even for nimble rationalization. But he was morally serious, a genuine “great soul,” and thus lacked the true politician’s talent for convenient self-deception. My sincere prayer is that he should not be born now, because our corrupted politicians would make this "Great soul" into nothing.

Dear Padmini,

How are you doing? Nice to see you here. Yes, it is a bad world out there. But then, we all are responsible for this mess in someway or the other. Yes, I wouldn't want Bapu to be born in such an atmosphere. Great souls like him are really a miracle.

Nice Day
Shail
