We need you, Today and Ever!

About him, what can one say,
His teachings shall forever stay;
True in life, true in mind, body and soul,
one that we could blindly obey!

He lived once and he died once,
All his efforts made deep sense;
for ‘the India of his dreams’
needed and needs the perseverance.

For the India of his and our dreams,
An India of unforeseen independence!

"You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty" - Mahatma Gandhi.

We need him more than ever indeed. He brought moralilty as a key element of life and a unwavering sense of right and wrong. Moral degradation is the biggest problem of Indian leadership and you are absolutely right that we need the Mahatma badly. But alas, men like him come only once in a thousand years.

@ Ramesh - true, we need him more than ever. We can only hope for some sort of revival in the middle of so much of mess.
