I honestly believe there are several Gandhi-esk people out there. There are many people who effect our world not as greatly but as purely as he did.
What I mean by this is Ghandi had a way about him that made his message touch you in a way you are touched when you watch an "epic" movie. He touched people emotions in a way that while accompanied by such a pure beautiful method made people feel, well, inspired, hopeful, pure. People wanted to be like this man so message traveled and he became so great that another individual with the same amount of "worth" as him would listen to his words almost as if he was a prophet.
I believe there is a God in the works with people like Ghandi, and that is my very uneducated guess on how a person effects the world as Ghandi does. At least that is my fairy tail reasoning 🥴#conspiricytheory
