Jesus Christ is one of the first social reformer , who teaches people to love thy enemy. Even when he was in the cross he prayed for his enemies . For Gandhi ,Sermon on the Mount was one his guidance and inspiration.There were three photos on the wall over his desk .One is Jesus Christ,Justice Ranade & Annie Besan. Martin Luther King Jr was impressed by Gandhi’s Non violence movement, which lead him to fight for civil rights movement in America for black people. Recently President Barak Obama was asked by a school student Which person you would like to dine with ? He said: “I think it might be (Mahatma) Gandhi, who’s a real hero of mine. “It would probably be a really small meal because he didn’t eat a lot.” If you have not read My Experiments With Truth - Autobiography Of Mahatma Gandh then you should try this book Gandhi's Life is a message to this world !! That’s why we still love him
