New Delhi - Ganhdi Museum

When we got back to New Delhi, we visited the Gandhi Smitri. This is the place where Gandhi spent his last days. It contains a cool (with gadgets and exhibits you can interact with) museum with Gandhi's ideas for tolerance and unity and peace.

Outside you can see this sculpture

"I know the path,

It is straight and narrow.

It is like the edge of a sword,

I rejoice to walk on it."

"Experience has taught me that silence is a part of the spiritual discipline of a votary of truth. Proneness to exaggerate, to suppress or modify the truth, wittingly or unwittingly, is a natural weakness of man, and silence is necessary in order to surmount it. A man of few words will rarely be thoughtless in his speech, he will measure every word."

Gandhi's thoughts on silence

Gandhi's last steps were also traced from the time he left his room up to the place where he was shot.

Up to the present day, a lot of people still visit to pay their respects.
