Another Talisman of Gandhiji: Catering and Sex-Planning
Do you think that two people who love each other, are happy with each other, they should have sex only once in two years!
Gandhiji, a friend of mine used to say that ‘at that time there were not such mature mediums of communication, yet Gandhiji used to follow a big flock wherever he used to go.
In public knowledge, We will know Bapu as a satyagraha, non-violent, sanitation-lover, revolutionary, writer, orator, the hero of freedom, and messiah, but only one corner of Gandhi’s life reaches us from these aspects.
Gandhi’s eldest son Harilal did not become one with Gandhiji, So he left home. Once Harilal came to know that Gandhi and Kasturba are also on the train leaving from Katni, then they reached there. While everyone was shouting ‘Mahatma Gandhi ki Jai’, Harilal suddenly started shouting slogans of ‘Kasturba ki Jai’.
When Gandhiji heard the slogans of ‘Kasturba ki Jai’, he recognized that the person was Harilal. He called Harilal in the train and after a while when the train started running, Harilal gave some oranges to Kasturba and said, “Ye AAP khana, don’t give it (to Gandhiji).”
