Non-Violence

Who better to hear from on non-violence than Gandhi himself?

"Non-violence is goodwill towards all life. It is pure love."

This sounds familiar because Dr. King adopted this view of Gandhi's and Dr. King lived this principle. Gandhi says, "Satisfaction lies in the effort, not in the attainment. Full effort is full victory." Gandhi lived his principles as well. He spent over six years of his life in prison and devoted himself to non-violence as a means to achieve the freedom of India.

"The greater the progress , the greater the recognition of our unworthiness." Gandhi was humble about any progress that was made through his leadership and that is what probably made him such an attractive leader. Non-violence was the cornerstone to the foundation of his leadership and it proved to be successful.
