     Many nationalist figures of the East were strongly influenced by the personality and teachings of Gandhi. Gandhian methods are widely used in the liberation movement of African peoples. Ideals and principles of Gandhism became the ideological banner of the movement of American blacks for the elimination of segregation and racial inequality. Martin Luther King, in particular, saying: “Love for Gandhi was a powerful instrument of social change. It is in the meanings attached to Gandhi's love and non-violence, I found a method of social reform, which sought for many months. I realized that this is the only morally and practically correct method available to the oppressed people in their struggle for liberation”. [7, p. 25].

     Regarding his political views concerning the religions he shared the view our President, gathered in Astana of the leaders of world and traditional religions. At the second congress Nursultan Nazarbayev, in the modern sense reflected thought of Gandhi: “We forget sometimes one great religious principle, the principle of nonviolence in thoughts, words and acts. But this ancient principle reflects quite modern phenomena” [36].

     The greatest merit of Gandhi as an outstanding political leader was that he was not a lone fighter, he is deeply aware of the crucial role of the masses in the anti-imperialist struggle, their ability and determination to do away with colonial enslavement. And all his inexhaustible energy, all his strength, he sent to the full involvement of the masses in active opposition to the colonial regime. He knew perfectly life, customs, manners and sentiments of millions of Indian peasants, artisans and workers, he subtly felt the pulse of popular life and was able to correctly identify the thoughts and aspirations of the masses. Gandhi was able to always find the right path to the hearts of ordinary workers who formed the mass base of the national liberation movement. He tirelessly toured in his great country in close communion with the masses, in direct contact with the people explained to them his political agenda, encouraging them to fight for the independence of their homeland. It is in the heroism and sacrifice of millions of Indians rooted greatness and glory of Gandhi as their great leader.

     What has been the impact on our times of Gandhian economics and sociology, or better, of Gandhi's life and thought as a whole? Gandhi's thought and work developed in the context of an encounter between India and the West, tradition and modernity, and his stand was not simply that the Indians should not be forced to accept Western civilization through British rule; much more important was his conviction that the modern industrial-technological civilization is not good for man, Eastern or Western. He increasingly made India's freedom struggle something subsidiary to a struggle and movement for a normal world society. Second, the principles on which he based his political action as well as those in terms of which he constructed his vision of free India were universal by their very nature; and Gandhi always made it clear that he did not regard his fundamental ideas as merely matters of policy or suitable strategy in the Indian freedom struggle.

     To people of goodwill in all countries appeals to hardening of Gandhi at the cost of enormous sacrifices conquered the world are expensive, the assertion of equitable cooperation and friendly relations among nations. Leitmotif of his speeches over the world have been realistic, and often quite specific judgments about how to establish a climate of international relations, which would exclude the very possibility of war and relied solely on the principle of non-use of force in international affairs, that is the principle of nonviolence.
