Gandhi ~ beloved by many and, surprisingly so, equally disliked by many. Yet unerringly he sought and beseeched to live by higher standards of living, as was revealed to him through his conscience. In doing so, he became the conscience of our common humanity: he went, where so few of us are willing to go. He did, what so few of us are willing to do. And he said, what so few of us are willing to say. And he did it all: facing threats, beatings, poverty, and starvation, he set an example for all of us to act in accord with our inner voice, even if they be extreme circumstances. Listen here: GandhiA wonderful movie has been created by Sir Richard Attenborough called "Gandhi":
I found that most people who hold leadership positions are liked by many, and are just as equally disliked by others, no matter how good of a job he or she does as a community representative. This was also my experience as community steward of a yoga studio: fact of the matter is, someone, somewhere, is going to be happy about what you did, and someone, somewhere, will not.
