Guest guest Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 hello, thanks for the mail. The need of the hour to make the " others " who believe in violence and war learn that they can not go unscathed. We are trudging the path of peace for too long. You might be surprized by these words but I am a firm believer in Bhagavad Gita, which says : you have to do your duty' It is Chandra Sekhara Saraswati who said there is a difference between Indiviudal Dharma and Community Dharma. I have always forgiven my personal enemies at office or elsewhere, never thought of harming anyone, including those who have harmed me earlier, even when I have the power and opportunity - in fact, I have helped them and made them realise that there is no greater power than Love, forgivance and repentance. I am seen to be evovled by those who have harmed me earlier. But all this is Indidivual Dharma - I have a duty to reduce my karma and thank those who have harmed me because they are reducing my karma. I do not want to increase my karma by hitting them back, even as I am willing to do so at a mundane level and have the opportunity, power and will to do so. I conquer my temprations at those times. But what about Community Dharma? Can we be reticent or forgiving and go on speaking of tolerance and unity and patience? This is where the message of Saint Saraswati to Gandhiji that he is confused between Community dharma and individual dharma comes to fore. We need to be a stronger Nation, we need to be more aggressive; As a Nation, we have no business to impose our Individual Dharma onto the Community, because we are answerable to posterity. By being a weak Nation, we are incurring bad Karma as a Community because our children will be cursing us for making the country an under dog. Thus, the message is clear : Arise, awake, Stop not till the Goal is achieved,This is what Upanishads say, this is what Gita say, this is what Vivekananda said. I will finish this long discourse with what Bhagavwan Baba said long ago: " Follow the master, Face the devil, Fight to the end, Finish the game " hope you will agree with me, regards, Kishore patnaik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 30, 2008 Report Share Posted November 30, 2008 The world witnessed Emperor Hirohito of Japan decide to end World War II and allow Japan to accept the unconditional surrender terms that were presented to Japan by the Allied Nations as the only way to save the Japanese people who were being sacrificed on the alter of world peace to end World War II by using atomic bomb attacks on Japanese cities after fire bomb attacks had already destroyed several Japanese cities including Tokyo. By dropping atomic bombs on both Hiroshima and Nagasaki and stock piling many more atomic bombs in the Pacific Theater to be dropped on many more Japanese cities, the Allied Nations were sending a very clear message to Japan and especially to Emperor Hirohito, that Japan and the Japanese people are completely expendable to end World War II and the sacrifice of all of Japan and the sacrifice of most of the Japanese people would be the choice of the Japanese people and would be the choice of Emperor Hirohito. By dropping the two atomic bombs on both Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II, the Allied Nations were saying that the world will sacrifice Japan on the alter of world peace to end World War II. The same policies were also applied to Germany during World War II and President Roosevelt, President Truman and General George C. Marshall would have ordered the atomic bombs to be dropped on German cities if the D-Day invasion of NAZI occupied Western Europe had failed on the beaches of Normandy France. No nation on earth can play GOD with innocent human lives. All nations on earth are completely expendable in order to achieve an end to the violence, pain and suffering that those perniciously violent nations inflict against innocent human beings in other nations. Pakistan is not above the LAWS of common civilized human decency. Pakistan must receive a very clear message that the perniciously violent nation of Pakistan is a completely expendable nation to be sacrificed on the alter of world peace if the people of Pakistan cannot be serious and if the people of Pakistan cannot totally end the selfish pernicious violence, painful suffering, agony and death that the people of Pakistan inflict against innocent people in India and Afghanistan and against innocent people in any other nations around the world. The world will be a much more peaceful world without a perniciously violent Pakistan that continues to breed, propagate, subsidize, advocate and nurture home grown domestic terrorist murderers. India does not need to end the perniciously violent existence of Pakistan. There are several other nations that can very easily end the existence of Pakistan in only one hour. As history teaches us, peace is often born and sprouts from heaps of black ashes and piles of rubble and endless ruins. Pakistan has a choice. Pakistan can either become a completely non-violent peaceful nation or Pakistan can become just a very large gigantic black hole in the ground. For the world, either choice that Pakistan chooses will guarantee peace where Pakistan IS or where Pakistan WAS. Hopefully Pakistan will decide to remain a part of the world, however, that is the decision and the choice of the Pakistani people to decide. , " kishore patnaik " <kishorepatnaik09 wrote: > > hello, > > thanks for the mail. > > > The need of the hour to make the " others " who believe in violence and war > learn that they can not go unscathed.
