Natural Law or Dharma, the Code for righteous or virtuous conduct commands man to do whatever is required for Peace and Self-Preservation. Direction of virtuous conduct is determined by its end or goal of Self-preservation. The more each person strives and is able to preserve his own being, the more virtue does he possess. Self-Preservation is a virtue which is common to all men, and can be equally possessed by all in so far as they are of the same nature. Virtue in the context of Self-Preservation may involve use of physical force or power to achieve its objective or accomplish its purpose. The endeavor after Self- Preservation is the primary and only foundation of Virtue or Right Conduct.

Both Tibet, and India recognize the virtue of “Ahimsa” or Non-Violence as the highest principle. At the same time, use of physical force, “Himsa”, or violence is equally the highest principle when it is used in defense of the Righteous. Indian tradition stated this guiding principle:

“Ahimsa ParamO DharmaH
Dharma Himsa tathaiva cha.”

For occupation of Tibet using military force and violence is illegal, immoral, unfair, and unjust; under Natural Law, Tibet has Right to Self-Preservation. Tibet has Natural Right to use physical force or violence to oppose occupation and in an endeavor to Self-Preservation. In Mahatma Gandhi’s words, I want world’s sympathy in this Battle of Right Against Might.

TIBET’S RIGHT TO SELF-PRESERVATION. HIS HOLINESS THE DALAI LAMA WITH ACTOR AND FILM PRODUCER KAMAL HAASAN, AND ACTRESS GAUTHAMI.

On the day of the release of his new action thriller film ‘Thoongavanam’, Ulaganayagan Kamal Haasan along with Gauthami met world-renowned Buddhist monk and spiritual leader Dalai Lama.The meeting sparked surprise for Kamal is a rationalist and kept away from spiritualism. But however the legendary’s actor’s comments issued in a press statement after the meeting seems that the meeting was mutually pleasing and delightful.Here is what Kamal had to say about his meeting with Dalai Lama:”Today (November 10) morning I met The Dalai Lamaji .Have admired his resilience and purpose. Being a fan of Gandhi ji it is not to too farfetched to become his admirer. In spite of the fact that I am rationalist and hence not spiritually bent my meeting was invigorating and felt purposeful.My lack of interest in matters of things spiritual in nature was matched by his disinterest in cinema. ‘I have not watched a single movie not even Television ” he told me with a smile.Yet he opined that I could use my craft and medium to propagate the great philosophy offered to the world by India: ahimsa.I confirmed my faith in ahimsa and said I will venture soon in that direction.For a man of his position he indulged in small talk with abandon a sign of a man who had no worldly worries.Above all he loved the company of strangers. He reminded me of Jain Tamil poetry 2000 year-old. “Everywhere is my town; All are my kin (Yaadum ooray yaavarum kayLir.)” Meanwhile ‘Thoongavanam’ directed by Kamal’s erstwhile assistant Rajsh.M.Selva has opened to phenomenally positive reviews and has been running in to packed houses.

The View of Sri Aurobindo Ghosh on Gandhi’s adherence to Non-Violence 

Whole Dude – Whole Leadership: Sri Aurobindo has asked us to remember the two sentences of this well-known aphorism: “Ahimsa paramo dharmah; Dharma himsa tathaiva cha”-Non-violence or Ahimsa is the highest principle, and so is Violence or Himsa in defense of the righteous.

The method of absolute non-violence that was followed during the ‘Satyagraha’ movement should be questioned. It led to the breaking of skulls and a great deal of suffering for the freedom fighters. Two questions arise in the context of the use of non-violence: 1. Was it right and healthy for the nation to go through this kind of non-violence? and 2. Does Indian culture and spirituality enjoin this kind of non-violence?  


Whole Dude – Whole Leadership: Self-defense is a Right, it is a Duty, and it does not qualify as violence even when it involves killing the aggressor

Non-violence or Ahimsa is the highest principle, and so is violence or Himsa in defense of the righteous. Sri Aurobindo had also pointed out that, “Politics is concerned with masses of mankind and not with individuals. To ask masses of mankind to act as saints, to rise to the height of divine love and practice it in relation to their adversaries or oppressors is to ignore human nature. It is to set a premium on injustice and violence by paralyzing the hand of the deliverer when raised to strike. The Gita is the best answer to those who shrink from battle as a sin, and aggression as a lowering of morality.” 

Whole Dude – Whole Leadership: Self-defense is a Right, it is a Duty, and it does not qualify as violence even when it involves killing the aggressor

The sword of the warrior is as necessary to the fulfillment of justice and righteousness as the holiness of the saint. Saint Ramdas is not complete without Shivaji. To maintain justice and prevent the strong from despoiling, and the weak from being oppressed is the function for which the ‘Kshatriya’ was created. “Therefore,” says Sri Krishna in the Bhagavad Gita, “God created battle and Armor, the sword, the bow, and the dagger.”   

Whole Dude – Whole Leadership: Saint Samarth Ramdas and Warrior King Shivaji are the two aspects of the leadership equation.

Self-defense is a Right, it is a Duty, and it does not qualify as violence even when it involves killing the aggressor

THE  WOLF  AND  THE  LAMB : 

THE TYRANT WILL ALWAYS FIND AN EXCUSE FOR HIS TYRANNY.

This story was told by Aesop, the legendary Greek story-teller. Once upon a time, a Wolf was lapping at a stream. When looking up, the Wolf saw a Lamb just beginning to drink a little down the stream. “There’s my supper,” thought the Wolf. The Lamb looked so very helpless and innocent. The Wolf felt he ought  to have  an excuse for taking its life. Then he called out to the Lamb, “How dare you muddle the water from which I am drinking?” “No, Master, No,” said the Lamb; “if the water be muddy up there, I cannot be the cause of it, for it runs down from you to me.” “Well then,” said the Wolf, “Why did you call me bad names this time last year?” “That cannot be,” said the Lamb, “I am…

Whole Right – The Fight against Red China’s Tyranny

The Wolf and The Lamb: 

THE TYRANT WILL ALWAYS FIND AN EXCUSE FOR HIS TYRANNY.

This story is attributed to Aesop, the legendary Greek story-teller. Once upon a time, a Wolf was lapping at a stream. When looking up, the Wolf saw a Lamb just beginning to drink a little down the stream. “There’s my supper,” thought the Wolf. The Lamb looked so very helpless and innocent. The Wolf felt he ought  to have  an excuse for taking its life. Then he called out to the Lamb, “How dare you muddle the water from which I am drinking?” “No, Master, No,” said the Lamb; “if the water be muddy up there, I cannot be the cause of it, for it runs down from you to me.” “Well then,” said the Wolf, “Why did you call me bad names this time last year?” “That cannot be,” said the Lamb, “I am only six months old.” “I don’t care,” snarled the Wolf, “If it was not you, it was your father,” and with that he rushed upon the poor little Lamb, seized him and ate him up, saying,”Well I won’t stay supper less even though you refute every one of my imputations.” 

A tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny. When the oppressor is unjust, the innocent cannot get justice by reasoning. The unjust will not listen to the reasoning of the innocent. 

The Battle of Right Against Might: 

Mahatma Gandhi’s Battle Strategy – Nonviolent Non-Cooperation

Mahatma Gandhi had challenged the mighty British Empire with a Battle Strategy of his own. On the morning of March 12, 1930, Gandhi and about 78 of his followers had set out to oppose the unjust British Rule. He started marching from Sabarmati Ashram, Ahmedabad toward the village of Dandi on the Arabian Sea. 

GANDHI’S SALT MARCH FROM MARCH 12 TO APRIL 6, 1930
MAHATMA GANDHI AND SAROJINI NAIDU DURING SALT SATYAGRAHA OF 1930.

At that time, under the British Rule, it was forbidden to make salt or even pick it up. It was illegal to collect even natural deposits of salt. Gandhi wanted to attack this unjust Salt Act. He went to the Sea to break the Law. He had inspired people to break the Law. He had marched 240 miles to resist the British Power. The Salt March which is popularly described as Salt Satyagraha was one of Mahatma Gandhi’s most successful Campaigns in the Indian Nationalist Movement for Independence and to overthrow the British Rule. 

GANDHI RESISTED THE MIGHTY BRITISH EMPIRE WITH THIS VERY SIMPLE ACT – A BRILLIANT BATTLE PLAN AND THINKING.

When he got to the Sea, Gandhi broke the Salt Law by the simple act of picking up a tiny lump of soil with some natural salt at Dandi beach. And, he had forced the British to repeal the unjust Salt Law. Gandhi did not reach Dandi in a bus or a car. He had marched all the way on foot. He got the attention that he had wanted. He had shown the way to the people. Injustice could be resisted. Tyranny is not acceptable. People can change unjust laws and get rid of unjust rulers. 

GANDHI’S APPEAL FOR SYMPATHY FOR HIS BATTLE – A STRUGGLE FOR JUSTICE

March 10 – Tibetan National Uprising Day 

TIBET AWARENESS DAY – MARCH 10 – TIBETANS OBSERVE THIS DAY AS TIBETAN NATIONAL UPRISING DAY

H.H. Dalai Lama fled into exile after the Tibetan National Uprising on March 10, 1959 was brutally crushed by Communist China. The illegal and unjust military occupation of Tibet should be challenged and should be opposed. The Chinese Rule in Tibet must be resisted. Mahatma Gandhi had demonstrated the Power of Touch. We can easily resist Chinese military occupation of Tibet. We should resolve and refuse to touch Made in China products. Gandhi won his Battle Campaign by the sheer Power of innocent people who had peacefully joined in opposition to tyranny. Tibet’s  Battle of Right against Might deserves World’s Sympathy.
