From an early age he was made keenly aware of the rigid Hindu caste system of his country, and was heavily influenced by his mother's ability to fast as a way to control her urges. Mohandas was merried at he age of thirteen and continued his education, though he stuggled as a student. He also stuggled to find himself and to keep his moral center intact. At collage in london, and then later at work in South Africa and India, Gandhi was appalled at the abject proverty he discovered and by the widespread denial of civil liberties and political rights he encountered. He ultimately dedicated his life to the stuggle for fundamental human rights for all Indians. 4a0  aGrade 7-9
