GANDHI IN ACTION network

the Spirit of Mahatma Gandhi lives through every nonviolent action

THINK POSITIVELY, ACT LOCALLY, LIVE GLOBALLY

Thank you for your interest in getting connected with our worldwide network of positive thinkers, global dreamers and practical constructive workers practicing ahimsa [non-violence] in daily life and acting peacefully in service to their local communities and, globally, to the welfare af all.
Officially started in 1984 with the goal to create an open bridge connecting the Gandhian Communities and individuals in India with the expanding movement of people active in creating a change of consciousness in the west and in the world, Gandhi In Action has grown into a huge network, with 'actions' and activists in almost all local communities in the world.

Environmentalists, peace and nonviolence activists, human rights advocates, political conscious objectors, together with a variety of individuals and small groups inventing and pioneering new ways of service and cooperation within their local communities, all of them often use the icon of Gandhiji and his messages in order to communicate their commitment to non-violent strategies, their determination to search for peaceful solutions and ways to facilitate the inevitable changes we are all facing at this time of human history.

Everyone, everywhere, is challenged with important decisions.

Whenever the choice is for non-violence, peaceful solutions, care and service for the last, social justice and human rights, respect for nature, cooperation and solidariety,
wherever there is a man or a woman standing for freedom, dignity and emancipation for all, there ... there is... a Gandhi in Action.

We know there are many, in the world. Many we know, and many, many more are out there, in the world, unknown but in action, standing fearless for something they feel important, with nonviolence in their hearts.
Our mission, with this site, is to give all of us the space to know eachother, share experiences, opinions, ideas, photos, videos, like any other social network... you can even chat with members on line.
Please, sign up, create your profile and tell us about you, your work, your mission, your vision, your projects, events, whatever you want to share.

Thank You for choosing non-violence and please let us know whatever action you are performing to make the spirit of Gandhi alive and present in your community.

Ahimsa - A Yoga and Martial Arts Perspective on Non-Violence

As an advocate for peace and non-violence, I was thinking about the fact that I am also a martial artist. In an effort to fully realize the impact this has on my life in my determination to place Ahimsa beyond all else, I decided to discern what part the martial virtues play in this regard. I came across the following dialogue: 

     Ahimsa, non-violence, is the first of the Yamas. It is referred to as the Mother of all virtues and is the base for all the subsequent Yamas and…

Fought in Vain

My heart is aching; dear Lord, it’s breaking

For all of your children there for the taking

Hopeless and helpless, caught in despair

Looking for shelter, bowing in prayer

They have been bitten by the dark wind

They lash out in anger refusing to bend



For fear there is no one willing to care

Trembling in silence, no one is there

To nurture the wounds suffered in war

Or feed the hungry needs of the poor

To aid in rebuilding homes broken… Continue

report on "Shanti Now" Peace Mission for Libia

On march 26 I have sent an email to Arya Bushan Bhardwaj , the Founder of Gandhi In Action International….

Dear Arya, I have been following the evolution of the situation in Libia and 

felt compelled  to think of something that could be done as Gandhi In Action in 

 Europe... Shall we protest? and organize some sort of "stop the war" 

 manifestation? Are there groups and NGOs moving in that direction we can…
