It is well known that Sarojini Naidu said that "It costs a lot of money to keep this man in poverty". He was a fraud. No different from the many fake babas and pir fakirs nowadays.You might like this one from Osho.
His views on railways, hospitals and machinery:
There he explained that ‘machinery represents a great sin’; that ‘railways have spread the bubonic plague’ and ‘increased the frequency of famines’, accentuating ‘the evil nature of man’; that ‘hospitals are institutions for propagating sin; men take less care of their bodies and immorality increases’; that a peasant needs no ‘knowledge of letters’, which could only make him ‘discontented with his lot’, neither ‘elementary education or higher education’ being ‘required for the main thing’, to ‘make men of us’. All these ruinous innovations were exports of the ‘satanic civilization’ of theWest, whose ‘votaries calmly state that their business is not to teach religion’ –‘some’, incredibly, ‘even consider it a superstitious growth’. But ‘India will never be godless’, and to restore it to its pristine condition, just one effort was required, ‘to drive out Western civilization. All else will follow.
I wish I could get to be in a single room with this ghandi.
