white banners

This book made a tremendous impression on me. You have guessed right, I read it during my college days.Since then, I have re read it many times over, fully and in parts. We were four friends and we have discussed it any number of times as THE book which depicts life fully.
The message which left a lasting impression on me was this: when milk is split, it the strong one who gets up and cleans the mess; the weak stick up to their rights.
Have called upon this truism several times and have felt the better for it.
This theme runs throughout the book; it is the strong who dont count when they help others in what ever way is necessary at that time.They do so instinctively and carry on after that without any ego trip.It is the weak who are weak even after receiving necessary help. They develop a convoluted logic which makes them good to receive. They feel it is their right to receive. Or else how it the other person's turn to reach out to him.
As the title goes whenever there is an issue, spread the white banner aloft; with full heart, with the pleasure of having peace and goodness all around.
