Gandhi’s 10 Principles to Change the World.
In Positivity blog Henrik Edberg compiled Gandhi’s top ten fundamentals to change the world. Gandhi was the pioneer of Satyagraha—resistance to tyranny through mass civil disobedience, firmly founded upon ahimsa or total non-violence. He lived simply, organizing an ashram that was self-sufficient in its needs. Gandhi was given the prefix “Mahatma” which means Great Soul by his admirers. On January 30, 1948, Gandhi was shot and killed while having his nightly public walk on the grounds of the Birla Bhavan (Birla House) in New Delhi. The assassin, Nathuram Godse, was a Hindu radical with links to the extremist Hindu Mahasabha, who held Gandhi responsible for weakening India by insisting upon a payment to Pakistan.
