Vinayak Narahar Bhave, also known as Vinoba Bhave (pronunciation; 11 September 1895 – 15 November 1982), was an Indian philosopher and an advocate of nonviolence and human rights. Often called Acharya (teacher in Sanskrit), he is best known for the Bhoodan land reform movement, and is considered as the spiritual successor of Mahatma Gandhi.
Bhave was born in Gagoji, and was the eldest of five children and was brought up by his grandfather. Influenced by his mother's religious values, he developed an early interest in spiritual texts such as the Bhagavad Gita. After being inspired by Gandhi, he abandoned formal education and joined Gandhi’s Sabarmati Ashram in 1916. He actively participated in various programmes promoting khadi, village industries, and sanitation.
