Gandhi did not start a new religion. He was a devout follower of Hinduism, but he also drew inspiration from other religions, including Jainism, Christianity, and Islam. He believed in the importance of non-violence, truth, and love, and he used these principles to lead India's independence movement.
Gandhi's philosophy and teachings are often referred to as Gandhism. Gandhism emphasizes the importance of ahimsa (non-violence), satya (truth), satyagraha (truth force), and swadeshi (self-reliance). These principles are not specific to any one religion, but rather a set of values that Gandhi believed should guide all human beings.
Gandhi's legacy continues to inspire people around the world, and his ideas have been adopted by many different movements for social change.
