"King Ashoka The Great"
Mesmerized by the Horror show and then the Sacrifice of "King Ashoka The Great". Indo-Pak owns such a rich and emotional History.
"Your actions have taken from me my father, husband, and son. Now what will I have left to live for?". Moved by these words, it is said, that Asoka accepted/adopted Buddhism, and vowed to never take life again.
Mughal King Akbar's 5000 wives,
Abraham Lincoln becam US President even though a son ov a farmer,
Hitler's Patriotism for Germany even he himself was not a German by birth,
Napoleon exile to a 20km small Island Elba
And Hazrat Umar Bin Abdul Aziz's sudden change in Personality
Nothing had impressed me as much as Ashoka's conversion to Budhism after Kalinga War Did.
