Luckily M.K.Gandhi gave us the well defined doctrines which shaped our Freedom Struggle in the most honorable manner leading to the exit of mighty British. But the irony is that the mankind has not been able to utilize the Gandhi’s doctrines to the fullest as desired. The present paper has spanned across almost every possible filed which directly or indirectly affects our psyche and way of dealing with simple yet important problems in life keeping in mind the relevance of Gandhi’s philosophy and its relevance today.
