Who Was Great::Einstein Or Gandhi

The year 2005 is being celebrated as the World Year of Physics (WYP 2005) to honour the centenary of Einstein's contributions to physics in 1905.

In that year Einstein had published the papers on photoelectric effect, theory of relativity and the Brownian motion. In my openion Einstein is one of the two greatest men of the last century, the other being Mahatma Gandhi. While Einstein represents the best in physics, Gandhi was the greatest spiritual person of the period. Einstein once remarked about Gandhi in the following words:

Thousand years after, the world would scarcely believe that such a man in flesh and blood had ever walked on earth.

This was a remark coming from a great scientist about a great spiritualist.
