Lessons From Gandhi
Champak|October-I 2022
As soon as she got home from school, Jolly said to her mother, "Mummy, today I peeped through the bus window and saw a strange group of people. I could only see their backs at first, but then suddenly I saw their faces. I was surprised to see what they wore."
Harish Chandra Pande
Lessons From Gandhi

"What were they wearing?" 

"They were wearing dhotis and glasses."

"Oh! So many Gandhis! Yes, Jolly, you are in class 1 now, so you must have heard that Gandhiji is called the Father of the Nation?"

"Yes, Mummy! I've heard he's called Bapu, and the whole world calls him Bapu. I've heard he was a great human and a great thinker. But what does that mean?"

"Well, Jolly, it's like what you think about when you go to the garden."

"What's that?"

"Whether you should water the plants or not, and if a creeper has fallen, whether you should give it support or not? That's what a thinker does."

"Tell me more, Mummy!"

"His childhood name was Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, and he received his early education at Alfred High School. Once, when the school inspector came to inspect his school, his teacher instructed the students to make a good impression on him."

"When the inspector came to Gandhiji's class to test them, he told the students five words and asked them to write what they meant."
