Back in 1969 my mother was invited to speak alongside a number of other people who had known Gandhi, to throw a little light on the human qualities of this spiritual leader, to describe what he was like as a man, and to relate this to the philosophy he demonstrated in action.
Thank you for sharing this family treasure with us. It is a remarkable account and beautifully written…and fun to read being hand typed on onion skin paper! Your adorable comment about the nail was a perfect lead.
I could listen to you India all day! Your remarkable Mother writing about her experiences and it is extraordinary history ! Thank you once again for sharing. ❤️

When it comes to world history your family is in the thick of it.
What a gift that you share such personal insights and letters, thank you.
Wow... very touching story. And lovely photo as well as photos of the letters.
I love this but also “twit” is not used enough in parenting.
Beautifully written. And to have known such a great man !
As soon as I saw his name I became calm and to have read your Mum was in his presence ♥️

What a treasure of memories
Thank you for sharing your mother's writings. I was a great admirer of Gandhi and this letter gave such an insight int this great man.
No wonder your mother called you India.....( Her choice must have been triggered then..... )
thank you for sharing
Lady Pamela was remarkable at the tender age of seventeen ✨✨✨
I'm sure you know that your grandfather Mountbatten arranged that relationship which led to that wedding.
Beautiful story, and beautifully written. Personal and poignant, your mum’s living history connects us all through time. Thank you.
This is absolutely magical - thanks so much for sharing such an absolute gem 💕
Thank you for sharing the astonishing history your mother has been witness to. Her writing is so very good. And your side notes are really enjoyable.
