    Mahatma Gandhi

    Indian independence activist (1869–1948)

    "Gandhi" redirects here. For other uses, see Gandhi (disambiguation).

    Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi[c] (2 October 1869 – 30 January 1948)[2] was an Indian lawyer, anti-colonial nationalist, and political ethicist who employed nonviolent resistance to lead the successful campaign for India's independence from British rule. He inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world. The honorific Mahātmā (from Sanskrit, meaning great-souled, or venerable), first applied to him in South Africa in 1914, is now used throughout the world.[3]

    Born and raised in a Hindu family in coastal Gujarat, Gandhi trained in the law at the Inner Temple in London and was called to the bar at the age of 22. After two uncertain years in India, where he was unable to start a successful law practice, Gandhi moved to South Africa in 1893 to represent an Indian merchant in a lawsuit.

    Gandhi (2 October 1869 – 30 January 1948) was a leader of nationalism in British-ruled India. He is more commonly called Mahatma Gandhi; mahatma is an honorific meaning "great-soul" or "venerable" in Sanskrit. He was first called this in 1914 in Africa

    Gandhi on Mahabharata said he wished to live his life like Karna lived, "The one who grew up against all odds and emerged out to be the greatest cultural hero India has ever seen. Breathe your life like Karna and Ramachandra. he sorrows life gave them and how they reacted upon them. You would be able to achieve what human history had never imagined." Gandhi was the Martyr of the Nation since 1948. Rabindranath Tagore gave him the title of 'Mahatma'.

    Gandhi was one of the most important people involved in the movement for the independence of India. He was a non-violentactivist, who led the independence movement through a non-violentprotest.
