Of all Gandhian institutions of our nation, Navajivan Trust remains most enigmatic and least known. While I love to ponder over Gandhian thoughts, I have also developed a dread for "experts" who interpret Gandhi by juxtaposing Ganghi's thoughts with his life. So, when I received an invitation from Navajivan for an experimental dance-drama on Gandhi, I went to see it with some reservations. So, Gandhian interpretations are normally littered with anecdotal incidents from his life attempting to communicate truthfulness or fallacy of his thoughts, while missing out on what really matters, i.e. Gandhian values that he believed in but was human enough not to be able to fully follow (and Mahatma enough to be able to admit it).
