Truth

The tragedy of modern day is that we don't even have role models. We don't have a father figure or a mother figure we can aspire to. Every one seems to have feet of clay or worse. 

Take the example of Elon Musk. Before twitter saga, I read some where that he is this crazy genius, who is inventing one revolutionary technology after another - space travel, electric cars come to mind immediately. 

Now he has taken over Twitter and facing hate and ridicule every single day. And also spreading lot of hate and fake news himself.

That could be one of the reasons I am still continuing listening to Experiments with Truth by Gandhiji. He is some one our generation can look up to and idolize. 

The Hindi as well as English translation (by Mahadev Desai) are written so well. And the story never appears self-righteous nor dogmatic. The words so sound so honest.  It is down to earth story of a down to earth man who shook the entire nation and the world. And it is the story of a man who is revered and respected all over the world, even today.

Why don't all of us embrace Gandhigiri or strive to?
