The full name of Mahatma Gandhi was Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. Later people started calling him Bapu. Bapu had forced the British rule to kneel although he followed the principle of truth and non-violence.

Let us share his precious thoughts among our friends and close ones and take a firm resolve to build the India of his dreams. Here are some of the Gandhiji’s priceless thoughts.

• Hate the sin but not the sinner, forgiveness is a very valuable thing.
• The best way to know yourself is to engage yourself in the service of others.
• You don’t understand who is important to you until you really lose them.
• The power of love is a thousand times more effective and permanent than the power of punishment.
• Freedom has no meaning unless there is freedom to make mistakes.
• Whoever wants to listen to the voice of his conscience, he is within everyone.

• Man is a creature created by his thoughts, he becomes what he thinks.
• Not excess of work, irregularity kills a man.
• We become like the one whom we worship.

• Truth cannot be realized without non-violence, the first principle of non-violence is non-cooperation towards everything inhuman.
• The natural resources available on the earth are there to satisfy our needs, not to satisfy our greed.
