As a background for Gandhi it would be helpful if you watch the Academy

Award winning film entitled Gandhi from 1982. This will give you a sense of his history, development and context as well as some of most powerful events of his career.

In what sense can Gandhi's life be considered a success? Returning to the Socratic credo "a good man is not harmed in life or death" and "better to suffer injustice than to do injustice" (cf. Discussion above on the Apology and Gorgias), is Gandhi's life proof of these claims? How are Gandhi's ethical/ political views grounded in his religious/ metaphysical/ philosophical views? (in your discussion respond to any or all of the above and end your posting with a question of your own).

Explanation / Answer

Answer to In what sense can Gandhi's life be considered a success? Gandhi's life can be considered a success,not just because of all the peace he brought to others,but because the peace he had within himself.His ethical and political views were grounded firmly in the spritiual views he held,as evidenced by the calm demeanour he always possessed.He had wise words for every leader in politics about how they should treat others,and he spoke great truth about the world and society even though it was often ignored. The world did not change him when he saw that most people did not subscribe to his calm and kind way of life.The world would have been a better place if everyone follwed his path of calmness and kindness and caring for others beyond themselves.
