3. Summary :
Mohandas Karamchand Ghandi was born on 2 October 1869 in Porbandar, Kathiawar, in what is now the state of Gujarat. His father, Karamchand Uttamchand Gandhi, was a diwan or chief minister of the state of Porbandar, during the reign of the British Empire. Meanwhile, his mother, Putlibai, is Karamchand's fourth wife. Gandhi has two half brothers and three siblings. His mother was so religious that he formed little Gandhi as a religious child. Starting to grow bigger, he rebelled against many of the norms in his family. He started drinking alcohol and eating beef, which is certainly a strict prohibition in Hinduism. While studying in England, his lifestyle became westernized.
The story continues in South Africa. At the tip of the African continent, Gandhi was enlightened. The discriminatory treatment he has received, his people are also mining workers and slaves have opened his eyes. From then on, Gandhi devoted his whole life to the struggle for humanity against all forms of oppression. He has transformed into a bright light from the east.
Decades later, Gandhi's reading of history has been subject to controversy. During this time, Gandhi was represented as a light from the east. Its rays bring blessings not only to India and South Africa, but also to illuminate all corners of the world. Belief in truth and the principle of nonviolence is a philosophy that millions of people believe in. Gandhi led the struggle against forms of oppression in India and South Africa. The dogma is to uphold the truth and avoid violence.
However, in reality, there are no more satyagrahis, satyagraha soldiers who were victims. Conflict and rioting blindly in India, when the struggle for independence and those in the background of inter-religious conflicts.
What I learned?
His adherence to the principle of a life of love and non-violence brought India, the country he loved so much, at the gateway to freedom.
What difficulties that I face while listening to the recording ?
I have a little bit problem with these videos. The words they used sometimes do not understand, but is okay.
