Ashram (Sabarmati Ashram)

Sabarmati Ashram, founded by Mahatma Gandhi in 1917 in Ahmedabad, India, was his residence and a center for his national movement. It served as a hub for planning nonviolent resistance against British rule and promoted principles of truth, peace, and self-sufficiency. The Ashram symbolized Gandhi's philosophy of simple living, communal harmony, and civil disobedience. Today, it is a museum and historical site, inspiring visitors with Gandhi’s life and teachings, and emphasizing the importance of nonviolent activism and social justice.
