The rock star!!!

TIME magazine named The Dalai Lama, Lech Walesa, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Cesar Chavez, Aung San Suu Kyi, Benigno Aquino Jr., Desmond Tutu, and Nelson Mandela as Children of Gandhi and his spiritual heirs to non-violence. Gandhi continues to be relevant, misunderstood and revalidated till date all across the globe. Why did we, Indians wake up so late to the man and his words?

Seven Blunders of the World: Wealth without work, Pleasure without conscience, Knowledge without character, Commerce without morality, Science without humanity, Worship without sacrifice, Politics without principle.

~ Gandhi

Whether humanity will consciously follow the law of love, I do not know. But that need not disturb me. The law will work just as the law of gravitation works, whether we accept it or not. The person who discovered the law of love was a far greater scientist than any of our modern scientists. Only our explorations have not gone far enough and so it is not possible for everyone to see all its workings

~ Gandhi

Generations to come, it may be, will scarcely believe that such a one, as this, ever in flesh and blood walked upon this earth ~ Albert Einstein (circa 1948)
