Advocacy for non-violence

Mahatma Gandhi emphasized the futility of revenge and the importance of non-violence in his fight for Indian independence. This principle of ahimsa (non-violence) guided his actions and influenced global movements for civil rights and social change. Gandhi's message of peace and forgiveness remains a powerful call for resolving conflicts without resorting to violence.
