The Gandhi Shoe Story
(selfless compassion, generosity without strings)
What a toff he was
Mohandes K Gandhi
(1869 -1948)
Mohandas K
Gandhi (1869-1948), the great Indian statesman and spiritual leader is noted
for his unusual humanity and selflessness, which this story epitomizes.
Gandhi was boarding a train one day
with a number of companions and followers, when his shoe fell from his foot and
disappeared in the gap between the train and platform. Unable to retrieve it,
he took off his other shoe and threw it down by the first. Responding to the
puzzlement of his fellow travellers, Gandhi explained that a poor person who
finds a single shoe is no better off - what's really helpful is finding a pair.
