Gandhi and the Sweets

Gandhi did not advise people to do what he could not yet do.In his book, What's your Purpose?', Richard Jacobs writes about an interesting incident in the life of Mahatma Gandhi.

One day, a lady came to Gandhi and asked him an interesting request.

She asked Gandhi to tell her child to stop eating sweets.

Gandhi's reply was equally as unusual. He asked her to come back with her child in two weeks.

Two weeks had passed when the lady returned to Gandhi with her child.
