• What Did Gandhi Believe In

• Mahatma Gandhi was more inclined to spirituality than religion so i think he was sure about the god’s existence however didn’t believe in reincarnation or heaven or hell but did believe in eternal consciousness.

  Gandhi’s words

  God is that indefinable something which we all feel but which we do not know. To me God is Truth and Love, God is ethics and morality. God is fearlessness, God is the source of light and life and yet. He is above and beyond all these. God is conscience. He is even the atheism of the atheist. He transcends speech and reason. He is a personal God to those who need His touch. He is purest essence. He simply Is to those who have faith. He is long suffering. He is patient but He is also terrible. He is the greatest democrat the world knows. He is the greatest tyrant ever known. We are not, He alone Is

• Gandhi was more worried about how people behave in the real world!!

  Hate the sin, love the sinner. Mahatma Gandhi

  When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it–always. Mahatma Gandhi

  You can chain me, you can torture me, you can even destroy this body, but you will never imprison my mind. Mahatma Gandhi

  You must be the change you want to see in the world. Mahatma Gandhi

  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

  An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. Mahatma Gandhi,

  And let us not forget that he saw christians for what they have become in the real world!!!

  Gandhi said, “I like your Christ; I do not like your Christians. They are so unlike your Christ”!!!!!!!

• From what I understand, he was Hindu. This means that he believed in reincarnation. He likely did not believe in heaven or hell.
