BikeWale review on Ahimsa Harley
"Called the Ahimsa Harley, this is not a normal Harley.
This motorcycle has been signed by over 900 students. The concept was to kick
start a revolution of Peace Truth and Ahimsa and create a symbol that would
announce to the world that this generation is ready to embrace Mahatma Gandhi.
The 900 students supported this by signing on a Harley Davidson turning
into it a Ahimsa Harley."
On the Harley Davidson Facebook page it was a treat to see
the Ahimsa Harley get the Maximum "likes" in the India Bike Week
album….. MK Gandhi would be smiling …..
Last evening speaking at the India night of Harvard Model
United Nations India 2012 at Hyderabad I had the pleasure of interacting with
900 students, they were introduced by me to Gandhi in the 21st
century. Their reactions were inspiring and i need to do more ......
Highlight for the evening was when I asked them to kick
start a revolution of Peace Truth and Ahimsa and create a symbol that would announce
to the world that this generation is ready to embrace the Mahatma.
