The honorific title Mahatma\u00e2\u0080\u0094meaning &#8220;high-souled&#8221;\u00e2\u0080\u0094was bestowed on him first in 1914 in South Africa, and became widely used in India in the 1920s.

He is internationally honored for his philosophy of nonviolence and his leadership of the Indian independence movement.<\/p>\n<p>Gandhi believed that compassion was more important than truth because he believed that compassion was the foundation of all other virtues. He said that &#8220;the weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.&#8221; He also said that &#8220;an eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind.&#8221; Gandhi believed that violence was never justified, and that it only led to more violence. He said that &#8220;there are many causes that I am prepared to die for but no causes that I am prepared to kill for.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gandhi&#8217;s philosophy of nonviolence has been influential around the world, and it has been used by many different groups to fight for social justice. It is a powerful tool for change, and it is one that Gandhi believed was essential for creating a more just and peaceful world.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because they are not as important as compassion. Violence is never justified, and it only leads to more violence. Incivility is disrespectful and hurtful, and it can damage relationships.
