This plain thought crept into the mind when the Doklam standoff came to the hearing and the mind moved on to Bhutan, Sikkim, Arunachal and Tibet. As a citizen of the democratic country this view is presented in an extractable exercise and given to the needed verifications.
“The world is growing too small for any people to live in harmless isolation”. This is a memory line from the words of Dalai Lama who made his safe passage to India at the event of advancing Chinese troops who landed in Tibet. It is a mood point that how much the sentence could make its scrape of understanding to the points of what he means. There is a languoring tendency to remain in restful silence suppressing an existing memory in order not to err a risk involving Dalai Lama, China and Tibet leaving Dalai Lama alone to himself to what he is. In fact, he is such a man as nothing more than what is widely heard, seen and applauded with a distinctive mark; Tibet with Dalai Lama and Tibet without Dalai Lama.
There is the open conceptual contest of approval and disapproval surmising Dalai Lama as one of those exceptional typical personalities for what he is and the open known conceptual approval at large on one side but on the other side the isolated disapproval which is stiff in linear and strong in expansion prompting one to be sensible to the sensitivity to stay on, on the plateau and not to move to its escarpment.
It was so good to be a Nelson Mandela of South Africa because the tide changed to his favour from contentious dogma, “Might is right” to consensus dogma, “Right is might”. The change of tide brought changes to Nelson Mandela and to the South African’s history as a nation and now rich or poor it is a nation and there are many great acclamations to all those who stood behind the dogma, ‘right is might’, this is God Bless.
When a small stripe piece of land juts into a foreign neighbouring country, that small stripe piece of land is laid bare either for a friendly coexistence or a rivalry coexistence. It is a friendly coexistence when there is much exchange of goods, but is a rivalry coexistence when that portion of land is militarised with more military intends. Regarding Bhutan and India friendship treaty, there is a naturally grown friendship treaty because of the enter equal currency value, also in the border town of Phunchulin in Bhutan; as has seen years back, there is a gate to indicate Bhutan and India and nothing is heard about the militaristic features in the border. Bhutan, which is safely nestling at the base of Himalayan range must be one of the most peaceful kingdoms in the world, where no territorial or militaristic dispute is heard and as such the laying political and military moral transcript is; ‘let Bhutan be alone in peace.’
