Gandhi was an idealist – but a practical idealist – who had no use of any ideals if they were not capable of being implemented and being acted upon in life, “observed Shri Morarji Desai, who presided over these Lectures, in his concluding remarks. Shri Shriman Narayan has tried to interpret Gandhiji’s ideas as a man, as a social reformer, as an economist and as one who generally innobled the human society by his deeds and thoughts. A student of Gandhian philosophy cannot but agree with him that Gandhiji was “a truly atomic man in atomic age, a glorious triumph of noble and spiritual powers over all the material forces that the world can boast of.”
