Excerpt: Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (Gujarati: ; Hindi: , pronounced ; 2 October 1869 - 30 January 1948) was a pre-eminent political and ideological leader of India during the Indian independence movement. He pioneered satyagraha, resistance to tyranny through mass civil resistance. His philosophy was firmly founded upon ahimsa (nonviolence). His philosophy and leadership helped India gain independence and inspired movements for civil rights and freedom across the world.
