Gandhism consists of the ideology and thoughts that describes the inspiration, vision of society, life philosophy, moral values, principles and works of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.
He seemed to be influenced by Gita, He once wrote, "It’s the action, not the fruit of the action, that’s important. You have to do the right thing. It may not be in your power, may not be in your time, that there’ll be any fruit. But that doesn’t mean you stop doing the right thing. You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result."
Here are the ABCs of Gandhian philosophy as I have understood it
A: Ahimsa or non-violent and peaceful protest as satyagraha or civil resistance
B: Basis of socio-economic growth and collective welfare should be trusteeship
C: Change comes when you become the change you expect from others
D: Defeat injustice with constant and relentless struggle without harming people and property as welfare of all or sarvodaya
E: Emancipation of weaker sections of society and women
