Spiritualism and Gandhi’

 

Department of Gandhian and Peace Studies organized weekly Seminar today (2ndof May, 2013) at Seminar Room of the Department, under the Students’ Forum Gandhian Way’. Mr. Simaranjit Singh (M.A.-4thSemester Student) initiated the discussion on ‘Spiritualism and Gandhi’. He mentioned in the beginning that as a child, Gandhiji usually used to listen the discourses of spiritual saints at his home and had great impact of the teachings of Bhagwad Geeta and Ahimsa as Parmo Dharmah (Non-violence is the absolute duty). He was also influenced by various religious thinkers and had impact of various religions and their ideologies as of Buddhism, Jainism and Christianity. Due to influences of these religious and spiritual doctorines, Gandhiji became humble, simple and liberal. He found ‘truth’ in every religion of the world. So he was not a believer but real and true practitioner of the theory of “Sarva Dharma Sambhava” (equal respect for all the religions/faiths). He concluded his talk while explaining that in today’s world where the gap between ideals and reality are widening and life has become hollow and meaningless, the study of ‘Gandhian Philosophy’ becomes very important and relevant. It is more valuable today. We should try to imbibe Gandhiji’s spiritual and human virtues in our lives to make it more meaningful and practical. In the beginning, Professor Manohar Lal Sharma, Chairman, introduced the theme of the discussion and highlighted its significance in strengthening the confidence of the students. Many Faculty members, research scholars and students of the Department attended and participated in the discussions.
