Mohandas Gandhi
challenges and difficulties

Mohandas Gandhi has a critical, cynical attitude towards many religions and philosophies. Without realizing it, he prevents himself from appreciating new viewpoints and attitudes. Gandhi is more rigid and dogmatic than he realizes. His approach may also be too intellectual or moralistic. Mohandas Gandhi takes his own political beliefs and spiritual philosophy very seriously, worrying and fretting if he is not 100% clear about some ideology or theory.

His fears revolve around money and material security, and Mohandas Gandhi works very hard to ensure that his assets are solid. He may be very conservative, even stingy, with his money because he is afraid there will not be enough. He may turn this fear around and become very shrewd about investments and financial matters.

Mohandas should take care not to trust others too blindly. Some of his friends or associates may be untruthful and try to deceive him, resulting in great disappointments or even losses for Gandhi.

Now we will discuss patterns of behavior which Mohandas Gandhi instinctively and habitually reverts to when under stress - a mostly subconscious process that he is apt to over indulge in because it is so familiar and hence easy for him. The direction Mohandas Gandhi needs to follow in order to develop balance, greater awareness, and wholeness is also described.

Mohandas Gandhi's path lies in his development as an individual, the discovery of his own strengths and joys, the capacity to express his uniqueness and to stand out in a crowd. This involves becoming a leader, even though Gandhi's instinct is actually to be "one of the Indians" rather than the "chief". When under stress Mohandas Gandhi is apt to seek safety in numbers, to go along with the group. Also, he may believe that striving to do his personal best and to excel is wrong or selfish, but Mohandas should let go of this notion. Finding his own center and doing what gives him delight and energy is the most worthwhile contribution Mohandas Gandhi can offer the world at large.

It is in his public life and career that Mohandas Gandhi is most likely to wrestle with these issues. The latter will impact Gandhi's reputation and standing in his community or professional circle, as well as how Mohandas Gandhi achieves his important life goals and aspirations.

Mohandas Gandhi has a vivacious and lively manner with a tendency to shock others at times by bluntly blurting out his remarks. Mohandas loves to be with people, but tends to get overly excited when he is with them.

Mohandas Gandhi tends to have deep bonds with the people he associates with and is likely to encounter some unusual or fated relationships. Some of his contacts could be with very influential people who may be of help to Gandhi in the future.
