The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting

# The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting. "In Mahabharat, lord Krishna went to Hastinapur becoming a "peace messenger" (shanti doot) as He doesn't want massive bloodflow during fight. He proposed his peace proposal before "duryodhana", & duryodhana refused that, but lord Krishna's this step prove the irrationality of Kaurvas before that time rulers, so Yuyutsu and many other king supported Pandvas. This one step ensured the army strength of Pandvas. This strategy of Krishna worked as he said to Arjuna "war are fought in mind no in battle-field".

This war wining strategy of Krishna already proved their wining. This event perfectly aligned with the quote that "subdue, enemy without fighting is the supreme art of war". Not only in mythology, but history specially one of modern era incident also shows the same. In 1965 war, when India was free country & PM was Mr. Lal Bahadur Shastri, Pakistan infiltrated Jammu and Kashmir border as Pakistan was thinking India would never think beyond the lines & being engaged in Jammu Kashmir border. India was in trouble & not prepared for war, but that time, PM of India Mr. Lal Bahadur Shastri ordered to open both front one of J&K & one of Lahore. Indian army entered by lahore front & encroached the area. despite being threat of china & sudden war, Indian PM's strategy worked & Pakistan has to surrender to save their heartland. This incident clearly proves that in war only what works is strategy not strength. These war strategy are carry forwarding into geographical aspect also. in today's age countries are struggling with the resources richment.

& which country is resources rich, has to face "paradox of plenty" for example, African country, DRC. (Democratic Republic of India) is rich in cobalt, big developed nation like USA & china give them credit then make them into the net of debt, "debt trap" & they always remains developed but DRC despite being resource rich looses the battle. these strategies effecting each dimension of Society also, war are fighting on the basis of opportunities & development process where some privileged section / first deprive the vulnerable from their rights & destroyed level playing of field that creates large gap of equality between privileged & vulnerable then whether it can be caste based discrimination or we can hear about Oxfam Report of Income inequality, this gap stretched over Political area also, where some politicians use the money, Alcohol & fake promises to win election & after becoming the leader they even forget that section that chooses them. by this they create a battlefield of their comfort - as much that no enemy left to fight. Politics don't spread alone its effect can be seen in governance. "Bureaucrats, Govt officer uses the ordinary citizen for their own mean. they never help them but pretend so. Every affairs is affected by this whether national or International. in International affairs, no one is fighting with weapon. they are using Geopolitics, diplomacy to win the race. for example, recently Hormuz strait the trade point for various country is checked via GPS spoofing & many political ways. if the trade of one country is disturbed then you don't even need to pick any weapon. because the Backbone, Economy of that country will eventually collapsed. this diplomacy is including debt trap, Billion diplomacy as virtual weapons. Countries like india are becoming the hunt of tariffs by USA & many African nations are under middle income trap so these all shows the art of war without fighting to subdue the enemy. When a country's trade is disturbed then what about its economy, in economy also these strategy works. to save domestic country's industry, China like country uses dumping activity to sell their material at lower than the domestic price so Export-Importers buy their material & MSMEs have to suffer due to high price. also by incresy dollar value also decreased the value of domestic currency in market make the material more expensive, Eventually it heart's the Economy. When these are not limited in these sector but also environment is facing the same issue, Countries are introducing invasive species which can harm native biodiversity.

As science grows these strategies are incresy at a big pace. In science & tech., the MNCs using AI, IoT services they use this weapon as two ways firstly they destroyed the labour intensive sectors 2ndly they are using the data of one country to give to another country which is emerged as an latest privacy issue. these data can be used in many ways as in disaster management, China's not sharing dam water data with India which is a water bomb for India can bring a massive flood in N-E region at a large scale. these steps shocks the national security also as in security "Jaish-e-mohammed" like organisation are doing the same, they their self not enter in India but using India's demographic population against India only by brainwashing, Antinationalist policies & so on. these type of thinking reflected in Ethical behaviour of people & countries. during Munich Agreement France & Britain Agreed Germany to annex Sudetland & making various countries as their colony violating the sovereignty, nationality & Basic Human morality.

But the Each dimension cover the one thesis of this quotation, it has another one also. "Are we truly subtly the threat or we are preparing the Battlefield? Some time avoiding the battle can save the proxy of war & may be prove as better art of war. As our National Father Gandhiji said "Where there is only a choice between cowardice & violence I would choose and advise violence but non-violence is the greatest force act to disposal of mankind. It is mightiest weapon of destruction. So for national sovereignty we should fight but that fight should be constructive rather. then destructive. as happened in India by following Gandhian philosophy". "The fight of Humanity, compassion Truth, honesty, integrity, probity should be fought as it is truely said "an eye for an eye can make the whole world blind" as with destruction mindset probably one battle can be won but there can be losses may be the largest one. "So we should follow the philosophy of "Vasudhaiv Kutumbkam" to spread real humanity feelings in the heart of man. as "war should be the last resort" -> Guru Govind Singh.
