“True love is boundless like the ocean and, swelling within one, spreads itself out and, crossing all boundaries and frontiers, envelops the whole world.”

Indian political leader and activist of the early-to-mid 20th century, Gandhi is best known for leading India’s nonviolent struggle against British colonial rule through civil disobedience and moral persuasion. His philosophy of *satyagraha*—firmness rooted in truth—shaped global movements for justice and self-determination.
