Answer:

One significant influence on Dr. King Jr.´s personal philosophy was the life and thought of Mahatma Ghandi, the champion of non-violence in the fight for Indian independence from Britain. During the years he spent at Crozer Theological Seminary in Chester, Pennsylvania, he became acquainted with Gandhi´s ideas.

Another major influence was the works and thoughts of contemporay Protestant theologians. He studied for a Ph.D. degree at Boston University.  In 1955 he got his title of doctor with a thesis called "A Comparison of the Conceptions of God in the Thinking of Paul Tillich and Henry Nelson Wieman."
