India celebrated its Independence Day anniversary and soon thereafter comes Gandhi Jayanti. But, are we truly “independent?”
As long as we are slaves to our own insatiable desires, we do not have independence but have to be ‘in dependency.”
Mahatma Gandhi freed us from the British using the weapon of non-violence.
If we scrutinise his motive, we can realise that he not only wanted to free us from the British but free us from the aliens hiding within – impatience, crookedness and selfishness.
Gandhiji is rightly called Mahatma for his refined qualities. True independence is subjective that can be attained only by one’s own effort.
Great souls serve as milestones and the only vehicles available to reach the destination is self-control; its fuel is willpower.
Let us elevate ourselves to a higher level and enjoy true freedom.
