"Those who don`t have pain, don`t have dreams: Baba Amte
A chance encounter during childhood with a blind beggar was what set the foundation behind the shunning of conventional temptations later in life and embracing a chain of sacrifices. One meeting was all that was needed. That day, a young boy of eight was smitten with Diwali festivity when he rushed out with a handful of coins. But when that boy met a sightless man, Murlidhar Devidas Amte felt compelled to drop all of his coins into the waiting bowl. Amte`s childhood and youth were spent in luxury. Although his father was a strict man and forbade him among other things to play with `low caste` children, Baba relished childhood and teenage joys. These included, watching cinema and owning his car at a young age. His greatness lay in the fact that he avoided succumbing to the luxuries of life, which were always within his reach.
