Sherdor Nematjonovich Pulatov ,

Abstract

The article analyzes the activities of Mahatma Gandhi and his service to the people of India. He experienced the challenges facing India. In India, a large number of different religions, so Gandhi worked for unity. Satyagraha of Mahatma Gandhi  destroyed ethnic, religious castes, linguistic and regional barriers. The Indian Union, the issue of independence, was the sense of Gandhi’s life. The creation of Sarvodoya, a “welfare society” on earth, is the essence of the idea of satyagraha. It reflects democratic and humanistic ideas. Gandhi linked the struggle for “sarvodoya” with the ideas of the struggle for independence. The study of the socio-political worldview and philosophy of Mahatma Gandhi is still relevant today. In the modern world its significance is even greater. For example, we can see how the concept of non-violence is necessary in the world, and in political circles. This is because the modern era is very special because of its polarity. The ethical and philosophical worldview of Mahatma Gandhi was also analyzed. The concept of God is at the core of Gandhi’s worldview. He sees God and Truth as a single concept. True for Gandhi to unite everything. As the most important category of Gandhi's philosophical and ethical conception, love is selected, and this category becomes the most important feature of “ahimsa” and its practical inspiration. Ahimsa is the basis of the search for truth. Ahims does not harm any creature. “Love” and “mercy,” Gandhi believes, should be the cornerstone of all human relationships, and “hatred” must be removed from life.
