70 and Proud

Shri GOPALKRISHNA J.PANDYA sent me a message that I have “ Resurrected Gandhiji”, I don’t know him personally, but his message to my father humbles me as I am still not sure that the act of merely compiling this book is an act enough to be given such adulation. I only hope in time the message of the book reaches the young and allows them to find their own set of values under the guiding light of Gandhiji.

I love the word – PRIDE in his message … I hope my generation feels the same PRIDE and not get bogged down with MKG trivia that makes sensational reading !!!!

Sri Gopalkrishan J. Pandya must be around 70 and the best way to convey his sense and feeling is to paste his message below:


DEAR SHRI VATSALbhai,
NAMASKAR!
I INDEED FELT SO GOOD & PROUD;CHI.BIRAD HAS RESURRECTED GANDHIJI AND THAT OUGHT TO GIVE YOU,VATSALbhai,IMMENSE PRIDE,AND I AM SPONTANEOUSLY GETTING SHARE OF THAT PRIDE!
PLEASE CONVEY MY HEARTIEST CONGRATULTIONS TO CHI.BIRAD.
'MAKE WRONG-DOER'S CONSCIENCE YOUR ALLY'SO EFFECTIVELY SUMS UP GANDHIJI'S MESSAGE!
REGARDS,
GOPALKRISHNA J.PANDYA
