Few days before Pakistani terrorist attacked our Indian army in early morning at Uri, our 20 soldiers martyred and 4 terrorist were killed. Before that there was attack at Pathankot and many times our neighbouring country had send uncounted terrorists to terrorise people living in nation. After the recent attack at Uri their army chief said, at any cost we will take this land of Kashmir, in fact I just heard that in their nation when new soldier joins the army they ask him to take a pledge that, 'I will give my life and soul to win the Kashmir and I will take a revenge of 1971 Indo-Pak war'. I was just thinking why so much trouble pakistani's are taking to get Kashmir, what lies in Kashmir, why can't they be happy in whatever land they have obtained by legal means? They are not able to get control over their own country's internal politics, poverty, illiteracy, health issues, justice, human rights and so many other issues, how they will take care of this extra land.
Poor country like Pakistan also spends $7.7 billions annually on army (pensions and nuclear budgets are excluded). So much can be done for country's development if this money is fully dovetailed in service of people directly, as discussed above so many problems they have to tackle with, what's the surety that Kashmir(some extra piece of land) will give them peace?
There is mention of wonderful pastime in Bhagavat mahapuran(8th canto 19 ch) of Lord Vaman(dwarf incarnation of Lord). He asked for 3 paces of land from King Bali, who was the king not only of this world but of entire universe including heavens. King started laughing and said to Him,"Your intelligence is insufficient. Thus You are not very prudent in regard to Your self-interest. I am able to give You an entire island because I am the proprietor of the three divisions of the universe. Ask something more." Vaman replied,"those whose senses are uncontrolled they can not be satisfied by provision of 3 worlds, if I am not satisfied with 3 paces of land then surely I won't be satisfied by possessing island. Even I posses one island I would hanker for other." Bali could understand his mistake, although he was the king of universe he was hankering to conquer another universe, his heart was not content, and when heart is not content there is no possibility of satisfaction and peace.
As we see in past so many kings tried to conquer over the piece of land, they massacred people to win land, but what happened finally, land is still here but where these people have gone? Were they actually satisfied after winning land? I am not against the protection of country's borders and safety of nation's people but there is no means in unnecessarily troubling other nation for some piece of land better get connected to lord and experience peace of mind and heart. Hankering for things of this world only shows the immaturity in our spiritual lives. Everyone can live in peace when God consciousness pervades everywhere. So let's work together to bring people more closer to The God and become peaceful!!
