The Gandhian philosophy of the spinning-wheel shows the surest way for the hoi polloi to bring about a desirable social revolution long overdue. To live in simplicity and austerity, thereby living in catholicity of contentment, peace and advancement is always an abiding lesson to be learnt from the spinning wheel alone. The Gandhian philosophy of the spinning wheel also endears non-violence and religion together with the most dynamic spirit of humanism. Gandhian awaits harbouring in the innermost core of the heart that spirit in contemplation as well as in action in an utterly bewildered super-computerized world right now.
