Abstract

If we see the history of human beings is the history of the endeavor of mankind to live a moral life. Moral life has not always been the same. It keeps on changing from time to time. But there are some moral principles like Ahimsā , which do not change with time and place. What are those moral principles? What are constituents of a moral life? How to achieve it? Why does human being struggle to lead a moral life? These questions have always occupied the human mind. The most dominating personalities of India, as Gandhi, have dwelt on the notion of Ahimsā as the most important aspect of moral life. The purpose of this study is to highlight the parallels and divergences in the mindsets of most influential person of the world through a comparative study of the thought of Gandhi.
