After I read the disaster news about cyclone in Burma last year and current Haiti earthquake, a few questions have left in me that – how do you love your country and your people? What does protection mean? Are they (we) still living in such as, 12th century?
Great leaders with deepest love to their countries and people always consider for the development and progress of their land and people. One example could be a Sri Lankan king, Duhtaghamani’s swear in a warfare. How much that king loved his people or he wished for the people’s progress was, we could see in his vow even in a war-time. Before he went to the front line for war, he took an oath or swear that,
If he was a leader who could be able to make more prosperity, security and peace for the people of his country than the enemy, the winner in that war must be himself!
If his enemy was a leader who could be able to make more prosperity, security and peace for the people of his country than himself, the winner in that war must be the enemy!
It was one of true examples of great leaders’ great love on their countries and people in history. Any way, how do you love your country and your people?
