Gandhi's first Ashram in Ahmedabad

It is said that Ashram road is the road that connects the two ashrams of Mahatma Gandhi, Kochrab Ashram and Sabarmati Ashram. While Sabarmati Ashram is more popular nowadays, Kochrab Ashram has an interesting history. Kochrab Ashram was the first ashram in India established by the Mahatma on 25th May 1915. It started with less than 20 members where they followed Gandhian style of living. After two years, Mahatma shifted to Sabarmati Ashram because of space constraints.

It is a totally different matter that I don’t think his truth to be of any worth, but that is my problem, not his. He never lied. I respect his truthfulness, although he knows nothing of the truth – which I am continuously forcing you to
