ABSTRACT
Anyone who has had the privilege, as I have had, of visiting Mahatma Gandhi and his fraternal community in his Ashram in Ahmedabad, would welcome, as I do, the opportunity to contribute an Essay to the volume of Reflections on his seventieth birthday. He has had a profound influence on my own philosophy of life and on my actual way of life, and I am glad to give public testimony to my debt to this wonderful man, who fortunately for me lived in my lifetime.
