Growing up as a Hindu, he always heard about the Bhagavad-Gita, but did not start to understand it until he was living in England. That is when it started speaking to him and guiding him to all he would accomplish. The Gita guided him to give up his worldly possessions. One of the possessions that he gave was sex. He realized that sex is much more physical, it is acting out energy and love and he did not want so much of his energy "locked" into his sexual drive. So, he made the choice that he would not let his sexual drive control him any longer.

o If there is no principle, there is nothing to depend on. (mkgandhi).

I think that everyone can take to heart some part of what Gandhi professed to the people. If everyone can try to put others first, before themselves and before their own concerns, that alone would alleviate some of the problems in society today. Our society is a very selfish one and everyone could benefit from putting others before themselves. Not only that, but everyone needs to look at the way that this man sacrificed everything that he had, including his personal comfort just so that he could try to solve the problems of his own country. The pursuit of truth could benefit not only yourself, but also those around you.
