Gandhiji, also
lovingly known as Bapuji or the father of the nation of India, a global
proprietor of functional social change is not remembered as a mere leader but
honoured as a charismatic figure–the much acclaimed saint of Sabarmati, with
selfless service, a futuristic ideology and vision for nation building with
scientific spirit and spiritualism [1]. Whereas Marx and Hitler believed in
perpetuating change in social system through their western oriented conflict
perspective, Gandhiji believed in reconstructing the Indian society through positivism.
This paper discusses how his revolutionary ideologies can be implemented to
deal with issues and challenges of the distorted Indian cultural milieu in the
era of globalization.
Mahatma Gandhi could
unlock great truth of his time that has relevance to the contemporary world.
While delving deep into his noble and rare insights one can find potential
gadgets and tools still lying idle in his old models of workshops and the much
sought after key to unlock the truth that India is capable of economic, political
and social self sustenance and is not to be dragged, tied to other foreign
models-namely-globalization, in its rough sense. He fabricated and designed
great models such as “Ahimsa” and “Satyagraha” to reach for the truth-Freedom
or Self Reliance or Swaraj! [2,3,4]. The problems of Globalization that he had
well predicted before the onset of the process have surfaced in today’s world.
A Gandhian perspective would not only help us in analysing the factors, agents,
nature and impacts of globalisation, but also in finding a solution so as to
carry out the restoration of diffused Indian cultural matrix and nation
building [5,6].
