A woman once came to Mahatma Gandhi with her little boy. She asked, “Mahatma-ji, tell my little boy to stop eating sugar.” “Come back in three days,” said Gandhi. In three days the woman and the little boy returned and Mahatma Gandhi said to the little boy, “Stop eating sugar.” The woman asked, “Why was it necessary for us to return only after three days for you to tell my little boy that?” The Mahatma replied: “Three days ago I had not stopped eating sugar.

You've read Gandhi-ji? He said that the two worst classes of human beings are doctors and lawyers. Lawyers because they prolong fights and doctors because they cure the symptoms, not the cause. Doctors don't eliminate disease--they perpetuate the existence of doctors.

Some talk of the Spirit of Christ in the way that one would talk of the spirit of Christmas—as a vague cultural pressure making for bonhomie and religiosity. Some think of the Spirit as inspiring the moral convictions of unbelievers like Gandhi or the theosophical mysticism of a Rudolf Steiner. But most, perhaps, do not think of the Holy Spirit at all, and have no positive ideas of any sort about what he does. They are for practical purposes in the same position as the disciples whom Paul met at Ephesus—“We have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit” (Acts 19:2).

Independent India, having the world’s largest esteemed constitution does not support Mahatma Gandhi Ji's title of `Father of the Nation` and consider it unconstitutional because Article 18 (1) of the Constitution does not permit any title as the father of the Nation.

In First world war , Gandhi Ji agreed upon recruitment of Indian soldiers fighting for the British army whereas it was not acceptable to him if such killings are done to let our nation Independent because it causes him immense pain as he always preached and followed the path of ahimsa to his followers who after this incident get to know about his hypocrisy in a clear view.
