The making of Mahatma part 4

the making of mahatma part 4(final)

and now continuing with mission mahatma :

when Gandhi returned to India, he is known to very few that too in the high circle. so the 1st target was to make him a popular leader!

A.Gandhi the savior(otherwords gandhi the broker who can make deals with british raj)

1.champaran movement : the poor farmers in the northern part of bihar were forced to raise indigo plants and were paid very less price for the crop etc...overall their life was miserable and pathetic. and gandhi comes, does satyagraha, british arrest him, gandhi argues in the court etc etc... and finally british changes their policy which the landlords obey(naturally) and finally the poor chamapran farmer is able to breath again. gandhi is the savior for them, here people started calling him bapu ....

2.next kheda satygraha: a very similar story but, in gujarat...

there was a famine and poor farmers who were fortunate to own the land but were not in a position to pay the taxes. the famine made their lives miserable. The british govt doesnt accept their bull shit famine story until gandhi comes do satygraha and opens the eyes for the british raj

and the British Raj finally: yes: there is a horrible famine and these poor farmers need a tax break...

message to the people:

with incidents like these , a big message was sent to the people of india, gandhi is the one who can bend the british for the needs of even the poorest of the poor of vast india. simpley saying gandhi is the one who will make the powerful british listen.

Masses of indians got their leader....

while gandhi was so much entertained by the british raj, the raj was ruthless with the fighters who posed real danger to their rule. Balagandgadhar tilak who claimed that freedom is my birth right was sent to harsh imprisonment .

and for the conference of indian representatives for support of india for the first world war, gandhi introduced the bill asking for indians to support. Gandhi was the "chosen man to introduce the bill" and Tilak was not even invited to the conference at all though tilak was the number one leader of india.
the message was clear to all the political leaders of india : if you work under the leadership of gandhi you will grow....

so all the foxes started aiding their big fox, gandhi.

Now gandhi had the

1. full support of British empire and British media & Indian media (Indian media was controlled by the British empire )

2.gandhi had the full support of all the foxy leaders

3. the masses of india : the masses of india started looking to gandhi as the deliverer. Gandhi makes the mighty english listen, means gandhi is greater than the mighty english...

adding to all these his charisma of ahimsa the non-violence ( which is fake as we already know that he supported all the british wars) which drawn even great leaders under his fold... Gandhi's dress code helped him too. he gave-up his western dress and manners and embraced the poor man's dress that was a gem of Gandhi's political move! Indians respect people who are humble and simple. This dress made Gandhi a simple and humble guy in addition his spiritual talk and religious speeches helped boom boom his political career.
But, i do not want you to become a fool of Gandhi's simplicity so I am adding it up here:
 India is a tropical country and wearing the poor man's cloth is like wearing a bikini and moving around ...its definitely a physical comfort if we can ignore social norms.
Gandhi(naked) had a special massage with a young female doctor everyday for 1.30 hr
Gandhi used to live in a bungalow with many young women as his aides while calling it ashram(church)
Gandhi used to be very particular with his diet
dry fruits only as food (expenisve in India, a common man eats them rarely especially when he is sick...), goat milk(not a regular Indian can afford) etc...etc..
 simplicity is just a dress for Gandhi! do not be a fool of Gandhi!

let me add a point here if you take any spiritual gurus/babas in India none of them were/are wretched, poor, impoverished or anything like that
all the modern gurus are millionaires and are powerful in the country even today!
Gandhi became a baba/spiritual guru , Gandhi took India by its achilles heel "religion" added to that is the British Raj support ....

Gandhi became so big and invincible in India that even the genuine patriots had to accept Gandhi if they are to be able to do something....
mahatma is formed by the british  for the british of the indians.

when a country is occupied by foreign rulers patriots suffer and traitors prosper , it is the rule!
