Truth alone Triumphs
Truth alone Triumphs
Here is a famous Sanskrit saying to which I'd like to add my perspective.
Sanskrit Verse: "Satyam eva Jayate"
Meaning: Truth alone Triumphs

The phrase 'Truth' in this context refers to righteousness, integrity, and morality. No matter what, Dharma will finally be achieved. Even when the dark forces seem to take over the world, a new hope will rise from nowhere and restore the law of dharma. I'm sure StarWars fans will completely agree with me...

Remember Kurukshetra (the war between Good and Bad)... The Kauravas had an incredibly huge army. But, they lost to Pandavas. Here is a possible fictional conversation~

Kauravas: Hey... Our army is freaking huge & mighty. We have 100,000...0 knights, warriors and soldiers with us. What do you have? Huh!
Pandavas: We have the God himself with us!

The path to victory is never easy. Being on the path of righteousness alone is not enough. A display of courage, discipline, perseverance and hard work is needed to be a winner in Life.

We may lose any number of battles, but we should win the war. Life is certainly full of ups and downs. Every trough in one's life can be regarded as losing a battle. We should learn from our mistakes, and get ready to face the world again. Eventually, we will be a winner in LIFE.

We often ask the question to ourselves... Why does god give so much wealth and goodness to bad people? I remember a popular dialog by the Superstar Rajinikanth in the movieBadshah. Here is what he often says~

God may give a lot to bad people, but will leave them halfway.
God may not give much to good people, but will hold their hand forever.

Truthfulness is the ninth of the ten attributes of ‘dharma’. Normally, this attribute is linked with the faculty of speech; i.e. to strictly speak what one has seen, heard or understood. This could do as a broad general definition. But it does not capture the essence of truthfulness which can only be defined as upholding the intrinsic

    The Mongol civilization was a highly advanced group of people in terms of military characteristics. They had superior weapons and strategic skills that contributed to their success of conquests. The purpose of this investigation is to address the question: To what extent did the Mongols benefit from their advanced military tactics? The major body of evidence will focus on Genghis Khan who was a prominent Mongolian ruler, the Mongol army, their war tactics, the empire and finally, the invading of neighboring countries. These subtopics will assist in answering the research question by describing the significant role of Genghis Khan in leading his empire, and also their advanced military strategies and to what measure of success these factors resulted in. Sources such as books and databases were used to provide research and background information on the subtopics. They have been evaluated according to their origin, purpose, values and limitations. One of the databases, "Mongol Empire (Overview)" gave me a gist and a clear understanding of how the Mongols used their military skills to conquer many areas. I gained knowledge of some of their strengths and strategies that allowed them to become a powerful army. The analysis of all these documents will help to establish the extent of the benefit that the Mongols obtained through their advanced military tactics.…

    There were many great warriors throughout the Middle Ages, however none so prominent as the Mongols. While the Carolingian “war machine” conquered a sizable expanse of land, it was a miniscule feat when compared to the enormous empire the Mongols ultimately created. Though they prospered for a relatively short period of time, they succeeded in generating a lasting impact. The traditional stereotypes of the 13th century Mongols were influenced by stories from Russia, China, and Persia, which insinuated that the Mongols were barbaric raiders contingent upon destroying everything in their path. This perception is not entirely true, while the Mongols were still a fierce war machine,…

    They were ingenious with their tactics in fighting and bold in trying methods of war that were uncommon or not previously used before. During the thirteenth century, a story went around and was later recorded about how Chinggis Khan, the leader of the Mongols, wanted to conquer the Chin Empire in Northern China. Using trickery, faking retreat and then advancing on them, the massive Mongol army was able to accomplish this conquest. (Document 1) The legendary explorer Marco Polo, studied the…

    At the battle of Cajamarca, advanced weaponry and education were major influences between the Spanish and the Incans during their war. For the Spaniards, horses allowed for the capturing of more natives because they gave Europeans speed and agility. In addition, guns and trumpets benefitted them because the Incans did not know what they were; therefore, the natives’ response was fear. Although the Incan army had about 80,000 men and the Spanish army had 62 cavalrymen and 106 soldiers on foot, this major discrepancy did not affect the Spaniards during their success in the battle because they were still able to conquer and seize more land. Moreover, education was the key to triumph for the Europeans at Cajamarca because although Francisco Pizarro was illiterate since he did not know how to read nor write, it did not impede him from using his wisdom to capture Atahuallpa and conquer the Incans. Nevertheless, like the Spanish, the natives were also uneducated because none of them knew how to neither read nor write as well. These advantages and disadvantages have taken their role in the victory at Cajamarca, however little did both groups know that they were parallel in some way.…

    What is truth? A simply complex question, truth is what we know, what we believe, or simply what is definite. I believe that we have personal truths that drive our beliefs, both of which are ever changing. In these changing truths, there is a common attribute: to further our truth is to strain our own being. For the betterment and continuity of human thought, we must undergo personal strains in the hope of going deeper into our changing beliefs. These strains are not all internal, for looking for truth is to subject ourselves to the possible maleficence of our own findings. The truth is a dangerous necessity.…
