Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi is perhaps the greatest voice of non-violence and peaceful civil disobedience that the world has ever known. He impacted leaders of countries, motivated leaders of mass movements, he gave India a voice, tried to unify the Indian cultures, he challenged old beliefs and even formed new doctrines... Gandhi became a world leader, and yet Gandhi himself was perceived as a mixed bag of contradictions. He embraced many different religions, advocated Islam while cherishing Hinduism, he was a shy and small child yet he became a voice for the Indian nation, he encouraged native Indians to fight for England in the Great War although he believed in non-violence. Yet despite these contradictions, Gandhi was genuine, determined, and faithful in his philosophies. Gandhi regarded himself as a soldier, but a peaceful one; for he fought for Indian independence but only through non-violent and respectful means. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi played a major role in the independence of India from Colonial Britain, but he also had a significant impact in South Africa, and even helped to form other political leaders' non-violent beliefs. Gandhi has impacted our world in such a way that it is frightening to imagine a world in which Gandhi did not have an impact.
