Bethlehem's Blessing: A Christmas Wish for Peace in Philistine


In Bethlehem's embrace, a silent night,
Where stars above proclaim a timeless light.
Lord Jesus' birth, a tale so divine,
In Philistine's hope, may peace now shine.
 
Ceasefires sought, a plea profound,
Echoes through the hills, the holy ground.
End the strife, let kindness prevail,
In birthplace sacred, let love set sail.
 
Genocide's shadow, banished away,
As dawn breaks forth, a hopeful day.
Philistine, rise with dignity strong,
In independence, may you truly belong.
 
Let peace and prosperity intertwine,
As Christmas whispers, "Forever, be thine."
In the land where miracles took flight,
Merry Christmas, in joy and peace unite.

The distressing closure of Al-Quds Hospital due to fuel shortage and the tragic loss of life resulting from recent Israeli bombardments in Jabalia refugee camp and Sabra in western Gaza underscore the urgent need for a peaceful and humane resolution. In this context, the profound wor

Open letter to HE Mr. Vladimir Putin, President of Russia

  HE President Putin, Greetings from Varanasi, the cultural capital of India!! This letter from the land of Mahatma Gandhi and Buddha coincides with the 355 th day of Russia – Ukraine war. Excellency, your article in 2012 in an Indian newspaper  The Hindu , mentioned that, “The Declaration on Strategic Partnership between India and Russia signed in October 2000 became a truly historic step."   Such a partnership between our countries defies the conventional interpretation of diplomacy which centres around maximising national interest. This declaration also realises the centuries old human values and traditions shared between our countries. Russia always endeavoured to ensure a peaceful India that marks its position among the nations of the world without fear from many powerful nations. Your country’s cooperation in the field of technology and energy led to peaceful use and strengthening national defence. India’s conflict with its neighbours or support for establishment o
