In 1919, Tagore wrote a letter to Gandhi in which he addressed him as &#8220;Mahatma.&#8221; This was the first time that Gandhi had been called by this title, and it quickly became a popular way to refer to him.<\/p>\n<p>Gandhi was initially reluctant to accept the title of Mahatma, but he eventually came to see it as a way to honor his commitment to non-violence and social justice. He used the title to describe himself in his writings and speeches, and it became a symbol of his lifelong struggle for peace and equality.<\/p>\n<p>Jawaharlal Nehru, Madan Mohan Malviya, and Subhash Chandra Bose were all prominent Indian leaders who were also friends of Gandhi. However, it was Tagore who first called Gandhi &#8220;Mahatma,&#8221; and this title came to be associated with Gandhi&#8217;s lifelong commitment to non-violence and social justice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Subscribe on
