Unbelievably profound. Gandhi had this rare combination of moral clarity and practical wisdom. The sheer audacity to write to Hitler—not with rage or condemnation, but with an appeal to his humanity—shows the depth of his conviction. He didn’t just preach non-violence; he lived it, even in the face of the ultimate test: reaching out to someone synonymous with destruction and hatred.
What’s amazing is that he didn’t waver in his principles, even when addressing one of history’s most brutal figures. It’s like he saw through the monster to the lost human underneath and tried to remind him of his better self. That level of courage and empathy is just… next-level.
