Mahatma Gandhi began using the charkha (spinning wheel) at the age of 36, during his time in South Africa around 1910. He adopted it as a symbol of self-reliance and empowerment, promoting the spinning of khadi as a means to resist British colonial rule in India. The charkha became an essential part of his philosophy of non-violent resistance and self-sufficiency.
