New Acropolis Russia (Krasnodar) honoured the 150th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi with a seminar that explored the history and philosophy of Gandhi as well as the principles that guided his life, that eventually helped India achieve freedom through non-violent means.

After investigating Gandhi’s ideas such as Satyagraha (pursuit of truth) and Ahimsa (power of sacrifice), attendees discussed the relevance of these concepts in their daily lives and how they could be used as tools to forge change in the world today.
