People say well he was imitating mahatma gandhi. I think he was imitating the lord, jesus christ. That is what i think. Because at 39 years old he gave his life. Yes. At 39 years old. At any time doing all that he went through, he couldve thrown in the towel, went home to his wife and his four babies, he couldve went home and said look, i am through with all of that.
