An act of commitment, An oath, A firm resolution, An effort towards an objective, A spirit of inner strength and will power! Mahatma was one of the greatest saints of our times.......... although european world may not accept him as we indians do........... but sad to see the political views of sincerity and service of the poeple and devotion to God to remove all the injustices of the present india is not followed by the politicians now.. thank you Gita for this great poem. tony
