One hundred and fifty-one years ago today, Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was born, though by 1914, he was better known as Mahatma ("Great Soul"). While tomorrow may be his birthday to most Westerners, in India it is a national holiday with banks, public offices and schools closed.
In fact, it is one of only three national holidays in the country, with the other two being its Independence Day and Republic Day. (The latter is when the country's constitution went into effect.)
Known as Gandhi Jayanti—"Jayanti" translates to "anniversary"—the day is observed with prayer services and tributes all over India, especially at Gandhi's memorial, Raj Ghat in New Delhi, where he was cremated following his assassination in 1948.
"Raghupati Raghav Raja Ram," Gandhi's favorite Bhajan (Hindu devotional song), is usually widely sung throughout the day in his memory, while many people travel throughout the different states and territories of the country to decorate statues and busts of the beloved social activist with flowers and garlands.

10 volumes, all in original cloth, 5 with original dust jacket. A remarkable private collection of 10 early biographies and works supporting Gandhi, each signed by the author. While Western biographers began to take interest in Gandhi beginning with Romain Roland (1924), this collection includes only association or signed copies of works by Indian authors. Represented here are both those who had followed Gandhi from his earliest political machinations in South Africa, as well as his early followers who subsequently emigrated to America in order to raise public awareness of the Indian Independence movement. In contrast to the author-signed works of Western biographers, which can be encountered in the trade today, works signed by Indian authors of this period are notoriously rare. Includes individually: 1) Muzumdar, Haridas T. Gandhi the Apostle. His Trial and His Message. Chicago: Universal Publishing Co., 1923. Blue cloth. Inscribed "Presented to my good friend Charles E. Sekera by Haridas T. Muzumdar / Evanston, Xmas, 1924". - First edition. An exceptionally early work in support of Gandhi, addressed to American readers to drum up financial and popular support for the Indian Independence movement in the U.S. A close friend and one of the earliest biographers of Gandh
