Dear Sri.Madhavan, It is really a very noble thought indeed of yours and adiyane commends you for it wholeheartedly. I live and work in Kuwait and we are virtually just a few hundred miles away from the epicentre of where the War might break out anytime. When War does break out -- and at this moment it does seem as though it will sooner than later -- we here in Kuwait will not only have a ring-side view of it, but might have to face upto to its direct consequences, both expected and unintended. In this grave hour of a gathering world crisis, the opening lines of the Bhagavath-gita seem to ring in adiyane's ears : "dharmakshetre kurukshetre samavetaa yuyutsavaH maamakaaH paaNDavaashchaiva kimakurvata sanjaya" In this bloody war-to-be, it's really very difficult to tell who are Pandavas and who the Kauravas and whose side is God and Dharma really on... Adiyane would urge all bhAgavatAs like your good self everywhere in the world to offer their sincere prayers to God to somehow avert this War. No matter who wins or loses this one, it is the poor, common people on both sides who will surely suffer most the tragic consequences of it. It is they who least deserve the misfortune that befalls everyone when a war breaks out. Thank you, Regards, dAsan, Sudarshan __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
