Mahatma Gandhi: Speaking from the heart





July 12th is Guru Purnima and I want to pay a tribute to a ‘maha’ ‘atma,’ a name given to Gandhiji by the 
people of India. Tagore said of him: ‘Here was living truth at last… (Because) ‘Who else has felt like him that all Indians are his own flesh and blood?’ Gandhiji’s life is a series of life lessons in practical spirituality.
Gandhiji was the guru of gurus. He was, as we know,   a man of extraordinary intelligence and moral integrity. A man made of something tougher than steel.   A master strategist.  His use of words and symbols makes him one of the greatest communicators the world has seen. It is my humble opinion that Gandhiji’s work should be required reading for all students of mass communications.
