You can see it all at "The Sarcophagi of the Sixth Continent" Vol. 1 of the Blake & Mortimer Adventures, when the Mahatma saves young Francis Blake and young Philip Mortimer from a menacing mob.
He says to the two youngsters: "I beg yoy to forgive the unqualifiable attitude of your aggressors. Convey that for the majority of indians you are always welcome in our country, as visitors, of course, not as conquerors. In that spirit I wish you an excellent sojourn in India."
