    This is a great speech. So inspirational, and you can tell from his words that he cared about his people so much. Go Gandhi!

      Gandhi was close. The single greatest human being to ever live on our planet currently sits on the right hand of His Father. Even Gandhi would tell you that.

    This is perhaps one of the most intelligent and sophisticated speeches in history! Gandhi had identified that it was us British/South Africans who had decided that we ourselves were provokeable; the more we acted, the more we stood out, the more we imprisoned him the more he made his point. Gandhi had won independence for India and we British did everything for him by our reaction.
    I've taught my kids this once with some people they had problems with in a difficult environment: "Fight against their anger, not to provoke it". Indeed, when the kids would see those people, the buzz word on parting was, "Satyagraha." This film changed the way the kids saw these people and followed Gandhi's example. It worked! They are no longer in that environment!

    "I would die for many causes, but I would NEVER kill for them."
    If we all thought this way there would simply be NO WAR. EVERY person is responsible for the actions they do and not take in times of hardship and/or war. Be the person who resists peacefully at whatever sacrifice to yourself!

    There seem to be people hating on Gandhi lately and calling him names, But it's fine, We don't have to respect him as a person. As long as we remember his Ideals and his words of Universal Peace and Non Violence as a method to fight any injustice, it's all fine.

  • @Code_Name_47

    "They may torture my body, break my bones, even kill me. But they will have my dead body not my obedience" its just impossible to explain today's generation what non violence is , how this form of protest is so much more courageous and how it breaks down the enemy.

    people think Brittain had understanding of how to handle India and their other collonies, they simply had the power and organization, there was a massive lack of compassion and understanding for the wellfare of the average man, once India was colonized it was exploited and when it was time for the British to call to their side the Indian people for support it was lacking because the British were unable to cultivate such loyalty..

    first non cooperation movement. by kooka lehar. SRI SATGURU RAM SINGH JI AND KUKA MOVEMENT IN THE EYES OF FREEDOM FIGHTERS, PHILOSOPHERS, ETC.
    1. Dr. Rajinder Prasad, the first president of India and great Freedom Fighter has written in 1935, as under: "Guru Ram Singh believed in the political freedom as part of religion. The organization of the Namdhari became considerably strong. The movement of boycott and Non-cooperation, which Mahatma Gandhi started so vigorously in our times was preached by Guru Ram Singh 50 years as cult for the Namdharis.
    Guru Ram Singh Non-cooperation movement contained the following five essentials:
    1. Boycott of Government Service.
    2. Boycott of eductional institutions opened by British.
    3. Boycott of Law-courts started by British.
    4. Boycott of foreign made goods.
    5. Refuse to obey and resist the laws and orders which owns conscience abhors
    2. The Daily Tribune, Lahore published a news on 27.12.1929 "Pandit Jawar Lal Nehru was riding a horse. It was a beautiful white charger. Behind him were the G.O.C. and other officers of the volunteer corps. The most striking feature was the Sikh Cavalary dressed in white spotless khadi and wearing stylish turbans. The Namdharis with their flowing beards presenting a thrilling sight".
    3. Subhash Chandra Bose said that " The banner for freedom given to Indians by Satguru Ram Singh and the sacrifices done by Namdhari Sikhs will be a matter of great pride for the Indians. The Namdhari Sikhs, experienced for three quarters of century for their peaceful non co-operation movement, are expected to carry forward the banner of freedom in the forefront and will encourage sacrifices. Guru Ram Singh is the first leader of the peaceful non co-operation movement in India .
    4. Pt. Jawahar Lal Nehru had written in the Satyug, "No Indian can deny the importance of efforts put in by Satguru Ram Singh and his followers Namdhari Sikhs seventy five years ago in achieving freedom of the country congress merely followed the path shown by them and attained independence."
    5. Shaheed Bhagat Singh "(Guru Ram Singh) preached Non-cooperation which Mahatma Gandhi did in ` 1920. His non-cooperation movement was better many folds as compared to Mahatma Gandhi. He ordered to boycott the Courts, establish the Panchayats, boycott of British educational institutions, and also boycott of Rail & Postal systems. The political condition of the country was in such shattered conditions that no one could think to challange and boycott British authorities."
    6. Encyclopedia of Britannica "Ram Singh, Sikh philosopher and reformer and the first Indian to use Non- cooperation and boycott the British merchandise and services as a political weapon."

    I believe that Gandhi overcame the sectarianism that divide religions. For him, the truth of the Gita and the Christian Gospel is in humans, when it negates the ego and eliminates their vices and bad habits that internal struggle of every human being, as described in the Mahabharata. As a Christian, I revere Gandhi as love and compassion of Christ to give the face of kindness to him who does evil.

I have never read about Washington's story, I'm sure he was a great man with strong ideals, but here we have 2 different persons living similar situations, who managed to resolve them successfully in their own ways. Washington won his war by massacring the brits, Ghandi won it by refusing obedience. Two different ways of accomplishing the same mission.

    We Indians never hated anyone, We just fought for respect and a Nation for ourselves. Once we got our Freedom, we extended our friendship to Britain to be one among the Commonwealth.
    We humans should learn to live in Peace and Tolerance, This is what surely even Gandhi would have loved to see.

  • @GroundZeroHiroshima
    @GroundZeroHiroshima 11 лет назад

    Gandhi saw his opposition to British rule as merely one part of his
    larger program of “constructive work.” (Here again Desai errs,
    claiming that “the more mature” Gandhi shifted his focus from politics
    to constructive work; in fact the Mahatma never separated the two.)
    truth, insofar as any human can grasp it, is inherently fluid. Today’s
    fixed set of demands may easily seem like tomorrow’s folly.
