Please subscribe to our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/JournalofLife Episode details: M.K. Gandhi a.k.a Mahatma Gandhi, a social reformer & activist, a revolutionary, a politician and a leader; he had many roles in his lifetime. But, through all of these roles, there was one thing that he was consistent on: His principle of Non-violence. Throughout his struggle for the freedom of India, he always laid emphasis on the practice of non-violence. Of late, there have been various polarizing opinions about him and his life. Some say: he taught the country to be weak? Some say: non-violence is for the weak? Some say, may be he was the not the man, the history books say he was. I guess, to understand the man really, we need to go close to his teachings. So, what is non-violence truly then? What do we mean by freedom? What should be our definition of non-violence in the modern times? In the context of modern times and the recent happenings in the country and the world overall, this seems to be an urgent need. Hence, discussing all of the above questions and much more in this episode.
