On the 147th anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi's birth, Service Space founder Nipun Mehta gave a talk at Emory University that weaves stories from Gandhi's life into an illuminating take on how to live the ideal of 'change yourself, change the world' in modern times. His talk explores how our highly interconnected and technologically advanced age has the potential to make the power of love exponentially more accessible. He gives powerful examples of how the internet ignites connections, and allows us to organize online communities that in turn can reach out and transform the world in tangible ways. This fascinating talk will both inform and inspire you. Watch and learn more about how you can use your own voice and presence to be a ripple of love in the world.

    Listening to Nipun always put your soul at ease and fills you with Hope...everytime I get to know something more inspiring about Gandhi ji and Vinoba ji and the many selfless people who are creating such great social change...specially right now when Palestine and Israel are fighting for the land and how the innocent people are suffering compared to how Vinoba ji made people donate land equivalent to a nation just by connecting hearts. There are endless possibilities of such things if we all can connect with our hearts and others too.

    The journey begins within. Thank you for this reminder! All these examples of Gandhi's life and the connection to the effect of inner change to the outside world are the seeds of hope. that it is not too late to instill the necessary change to a world falling apart. The power of love will be the answer. We are all connected. This talk was a fundamental inspiration. Thank you, Nipun!

    Thank you for this talk, dear Nipun. I never saw this one before. This 2N - N - 1 possibility of love exchanges leaves me breathless with wonder and hope. I always wanted to serve, small acts, great love -- but now I believe with all my heart that we all can change the world, one day at a time, one act of service at a time. ♥

    Bro thank you for this incredible heart-opening articulation of Gandhi's legacy. There is no power in the universe like the power of love. Let us all be continuously aware of our inherent capacity to tap into it. Happy Birthday Bapu!

    The power of love in the world and his analogy to the oak tree being able to withstand the hurricane when everything is destroyed. Because the oak is connected to other oak trees they stand strong. Our hope is to be the oak tree in our community so when systems fail we will be able to thrive with love, compassion, and kindness living heart-to-heart.

    I am inspired knowing that knowledge of self was Gandhi's driving force. I pray for humankind in this regard, that we may live in peace on this Earth, and I see it happening. Many are being called. This is inspiring too.

    I have been so angry about what President Trump has been doing. But the and was making me actually feel ill. Yet, I did not feel like I could be silent on the wrongs I see happening. But know I know what to do. I choose to BE Love and see what happens.

    This talk was like a balm to soothe the soul, especially in the context of the Trump presidency and the resulting upheaval in the world. It was enabling at the individual core level. Thank you.
