    GANDHIYAN VALUES AND

    COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS ON
    LEADERSHIP
    Introduction
    • Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was born in the town of
    Porbander in the state of what is now Gujarat on 2nd October
    1869. He had his schooling in nearby Rajkot.

    • At the age of thirteen he was married to Kasturba, who was even


    younger than him.

    • In 1888 Gandhi set sail for England, where he had decided to


    pursue a degree in law.

    • After completing law, Gandhi decided to accept an offer from an


    Indian businessman in South Africa, Dada Abdulla, to join him as
    a legal adviser, and it is in South Africa that he first coined the
    term satyagraha to signify his theory and practice of non-violent
    resistance.
    Values of Gandhi
    • Truth (Satya)
    • Non-Violence (Ahimsa)
    • Simplicity
    • Faith
    • Aparigraha (Non-Possession)
    • Equality (Sarva Dharma Samanata)
    • Swadeshi ( Use locally Made Goods)
    Satya
     Gandhi stated that the most important battle to fight was
    overcoming his own demons, fears, and insecurities.
     Gandhi summarized his beliefs first when he said "God is Truth".
     He would later change this statement to "Truth is God".
     Thus, Satya (Truth) in Gandhi's philosophy is "God".

    Non – Violence (Ahimsa)
    • The concept of nonviolence (ahimsa) and non resistance has a long
    history in Indian religious thought and has had many revivals in
    Hindu, Buddhist, Jain, Jewish and Christian contexts.

    • Gandhiji -quoted as saying: "There are many causes that I am


    prepared to die for but no causes that I am prepared to kill for."
    Simplicity
    • Gandhi earnestly believed that a person involved in social service
    should lead a simple life which he thought could lead to
    Brahmacharya.
    • Gandhi spent one day of each week in silence. He believed that
    abstaining from speaking brought him inner peace.
    • This influence was drawn from the Hindu principles of mauna
    (silence) and shanti (peace).
    • He dressed to be accepted by the poorest person in India,
    advocating the use of homespun cloth (khadi).
    Faith
     Gandhi -as a common Hindu- believed all religions to be
    equal, and rejected all efforts to convert him to a different
    faith.
     Gandhi wrote a commentary on the Bhagavad Gita in
    Gujarati.
     Gandhi believed that at the core of every religion was
    truth and love (compassion, nonviolence and the Golden
    Rule).
    Aparigraha (Non – Possession)
    • Aparigraha (Non – Possession) Non possession means that we
    should not hoard anything that we do not need today.
    • Gandhiji told that, “The less you possess, the less you want, the
    better you are.
    • And better for what? Not for your enjoyment of this life but for
    enjoyment of personal service to your fellow beings; service to
    which you dedicate yourself, your body, soul and mind.”
    Equality
     Sarva Dharma Samanta- Gandhiji strongly believed that every
    person in the world is similar.
     Nobody is bound by religion or caste.
     Every person is equal whether he is Hindu or Muslim or Christian or
    of any other religion or caste.
     Because of Gandhiji, we are now living in the secular country in
    which every person is free to celebrate his festivals and free to
    adopt another religion from which he is inspired.
    Swadeshi (Use Locally Made Goods)
     Swadeshi means to use the things which are produced in our own
    country and which are made by our national people.
     Gandhiji always wear Swadeshi cloths which were made of ‘Khadi’.
     Gandhiji advocated that one should always buy ‘Swadeshi’ cloths.
     From that our own country men get more revenue and that will help
    our country to grow
