Our expressions of various aspects of freedoms, rights and aspirations, therefore, have—of necessity—to be conceived, nurtured and articulated with great degree of deliberations. Obviously, such discussions have to be rooted in innate national wisdom covering political, strategic, administrative and economic experiences. The commitment to national consolidation is rendered more challenging when tested against the diversities of our nationhood and adversities imposed by geopolitical avarice in our neighbourhood. The Vivekananda International Foundation (VIF) was founded nearly a decade ago to sustain, promote and catalyse a noble commitmentfor to our nationalist consolidation. In this pursuit, the Foundation has found its cause from the powerful and patriotic teachings of Swami Vivekananda while the ever-venerated Vivekananda Kendra gave our Foundation a platform for its institutional functions. That made it possible for a group of highly regarded professionals from the fields of security, military, diplomacy, economics to generate ideas in the VIF and stimulate actions for greater national security and prosperity. The analyses, prognoses and options articulated by scholars of the Foundation have thus made a mark in shaping opinion amongst our higher State, public and private functionaries. Similarly, our factual, prejudice-free and candid confabulations with highly regarded think tanksNot and top intellectuals of the larger world has made it possible for the Foundation to gain deeper insight into the various challenges facing India, and so helped us in our search for appropriate policy options for the country. VIF has been disseminating its analytical papers and reports through its website www.vifindia.org. In this endeavour, occasional papers, monographs and books having vi SECURING INDIA long-term applicability are being published both in the printed form and in the e-version. This year, we decided to take another stride by requesting some of the most renowned experts in the strategic circles to pen down their observations on subjects of their expertise. These have been largely related to the aspect of ‘Securing India’ which has been carried as the central theme for this year’s publication. These enlightening and thought-provoking essays have been compiled in the form of a set of incisive papers for dissemination as our inaugural publication: VIF Perspective: Issues and Trends. There are in all fifteen papers of various lengths, each devoted to dissection of one of the salient aspects of our nation building. Papers of such nature, wherein deep knowledge and understandings have been packaged with experience and insight, are generally tedious to access for the thinking community at large. It has, therefore, been our effort to ease that avenue to analyses, enquiry and wisdom through the medium of this publication. I am sanguine that the publication, VIF Perspective: Issues and Trends, would serve its purpose in its cognitive reach-out to the State, academic, publicSale and private institutions and both at national and international levels. Jai Hind! for —General NC Vij April 2017 Director New Delhi Vivekananda International Foundation Not Not for Sale Not for Sale Strengthening India’s Nuclear Deterrence GENERAL NC VIJ, PVSM, UYSM, AVSM, AND VIF EXPERT GROUP Sale Abstract This paper looks at India’s nuclear deterrence as it exists today and recommends ways to strengthen it by identifying current gaps and suggesting remedies to address these. This exercise is driven by a two-fold requirement: First, to generate options to counter the ongoing nuclear brinkmanship by Pakistan; and secondly, to examine the larger issues of India’s nuclear doctrine in context of both Pakistan and China. The paper also covers the genesis of forPakistan’s tactical nuclear weapons (TNWs) and examines the impact of these on India’s nuclear deterrence. Measures to restore the credibility of India’s nuclear deterrence in a responsible and credible manner, through a wider spectrum of counter measures, have also been analysed in this paper. INDIA’S NUCLEAR DETERRENCE: GAPS AND REMEDIES SALIENT POINTS OF INDIA’S NUCLEAR DOCTRINE In essence, the salient points of India’s nuclear doctrine as per the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) notification of 4 January 2003 are that India will build up and maintain a ‘credible minimum deterrence’Not while following a ‘No First Use’ (NFU) policy. It proceeds to elaborate that India will use nuclear weapons only in retaliation against nuclear attack on Indian territory or on Indian forces anywhere and that retaliation will be ‘massive and designed to inflict unacceptable damage’. Further, nuclear weapons would not be used against non-nuclear weapon States; however, the option of retaliating with nuclear 4 SECURING INDIA weapons in the event of a major attack against it with biological or chemical weapons will be open. Finally, retaliatory nuclear attacks will be authorised only by the civilian political leadership through the Nuclear Command Authority (NCA). It is against the backdrop of the above-mentioned features of India’s nuclear doctrine and the contemporary nuclear developments in the region that various contextual issues are examined in this paper. THE DILEMMA OF NUCLEAR RESPONSE In its promulgation of ‘massive retaliation’ to cause ‘unacceptable damage’, India’s nuclear deterrence is but a ‘one massive leap’ response against one and every situation which India wants its potential adversaries to register. In that stance—essentially a mind game—as conceived by the architects of India’s nuclear doctrine, lies the punch of India’s deterrence. Another cardinal feature of the Indian doctrine is related to its apex command and control. In that, it is stated unambiguously that retaliatory nuclearSale response could only be authorised by the civilian political leadership through the NCA. In contrast, Pakistan follows a nuclear ‘first-use’ policy. This policy more or less propagates Pakistan’s policy of resorting to thwart any possible Indian aggression with its superior conventional forces. In late 2001, the Pakistan NCA defined their nuclear ‘red lines’ in the form of four potential thresholds. These were later published by the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IIIS). It is relevant to note that these formulations are mere pronouncements by Pakistan’s NCA; there per se is no formally promulgated nuclear doctrine or nuclear strategy by the State. Arguably therefore, these thresholds are merely stated positions at a pointfor in time and may well be subject to change at any time based on the ever-changing dynamics of India–Pakistan relations. Presently, the said thresholds stand stated as under: s Spatial Threshold. This threshold is crossed if and when the Indian military forces penetrate on a large scale into Pakistan’s territory which Pakistan is unable to thwart. The actual limits of this penetration have been left to the imagination of the analysts; the general belief is that it could be the line of Indus River—the lifeline of Pakistan. Penetration of Indian forces up to the Indus Valley and capture of key objectives along its most sensitive eastern territorial belt is therefore considered to be a situation serious enough for Pakistan to trigger nuclear first use. s Military ThresholdNot.

Government Type: Presidential republic GDP (official exchange rate): $851.5 billion (2017 est.) Source: CIA World FactBook (Last Updated August 2020) INTRODUCTION While Turkey remains a nominally secular republic, political Islam has been ascendant in the country since the military coup of 1980. The consolidation of power by Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s Justice and Development Party in the past 15 years, however, has led to the gradual weakening of secularism and the promotion of political Islam in Turkish public life. Political Islam has become increasingly visible at the grassroots level, as pious Turks enjoy growing representation in the political process. In parallel, the mounting authoritarian tendencies of the Turkish government have stifled political opposition. The transformation of Turkey from a parliamentary to a presidential system of government in a 2017 referendum has ensured, for the time being, that Erdogan’s political agenda faces no serious domestic challenges. That said, following the fallout with the Gülen Movement with whose support Erdoğan came to power, he has been forced into an uneasy alliance with domestic ultra-nationalists. This has not diminished Erdoğan’s Islamism, however, but rather injected it with greater doses of Turkish nationalism. Turkey’s foreign policy has been transformed accordingly. Following the 2011 Arab Spring uprisings, Turkey actively intervened to secure the victory of political Islam across the Middle East and North Africa, lending support especially to the Muslim Brotherhood and affiliated organizations.

The group’s ultimate goal is to establish a worldwide caliphate, or a state governed by Islamic law. ISIS is rooted in Abu Musad al-Zarqawi’s Al Qaeda in Iraq, a militant organization so extreme and violent that even Al Qaeda’s leadership criticized its methods and eventually renounced connections with the group. When Zarqawi was killed by a U.S. airstrike in 2006, Abu Ayyub al Masri became the leader of the group and renamed it the Islamic State in Iraq (ISI).

Resultantly, perceptions and sentiments about India also improved rapidly on the international front. Prime Minister Modi’s invite to SAARC heads of states for his swearing in signified his earnestness and commitment to enhancing relationships with the neighbours. Thereafter, his visits to Bhutan, Japan, meeting President Xi Jinping and later addressing the UN and summit with President Obama underlined the thrust of India’s reinvigoration of its foreign and security policies. BRICS, ASEAN and G-20 summits were the multilateral forums where India was seen in a new light because of its massive political mandate and strength of the new leadership which was likely to hasten India’s progress. Bilateral meets with Myanmar and Australian leadership on the sidelines of ASEAN and G-20 and visit of the Vietnamese Prime Minister to India underscored PM Modi’s emphasis on converting India’s Look East Policy to Act East Policy’. International Dynamics While Indian economy was being viewed with dismay in the first half of the year, now India is fast becoming an important and much sought after destination for investment as the change of government has engendered positive resonance both at home and abroad.

  • Vedanta in the West: Past, Present, and Future
    Vedanta in the West: Past, Present, and Future Swami Chetanananda What Is Vedanta? Vedanta is the culmination of all knowledge, the sacred wisdom of the Indian sages, the sum of the transcendental experiences of the seers of Truth. It is the essence, or the conclusion, of the scriptures known as the Vedas. Because the Upanishads come at the end of the Vedas they are collectively referred to as Vedanta. Literally, Veda means "knowledge" and anta means "end." Vedanta is a vast subject. Its scriptures have been evolving for the last five thousand years. The three basic scriptures of Vedanta are the Upanishads (the revealed truths), the Brahma Sutras (the reasoned truths), and the Bhagavad Gita (the practical truths). Some Teachings from Vedanta Here are some teachings from the Upanishads: “Arise! Awake! Approach the great teachers and learn.” “Aham Brahmasmi.” [I am Brahman.] “Tawamasi.” [Thou art That.] “Sarvam khalu idam Brahma.” [Verily, everything is Brahman.] “Whatever exists in this changing universe is enveloped by God.” “If a man knows Atman here, he then aains the true goal of life.” “Om is the bow; the Atman is the arrow; Brahman is said to be the mark. It is to be struck by an undistracted mind.” “He who knows Brahman becomes Brahman.” “His hands and feet are everywhere. His eyes, heads, and mouths are everywhere. His ears are everywhere. He pervades everything in the universe.” “Speak the truth. Practise dharma. Do not neglect your study of the Vedas. Treat your mother as God. Treat your father as God. Treat your teacher as God.

    ORIGINAL ARTICLE ISSN:-2231-5063 Golden Research Thoughts P. Vasundhara Rao Abstract:- Literature reflects the thinking and beliefs of the concerned folk. Some German writers came in contact with Ancient Indian Literature. They were influenced by the Indian Philosophy, especially, Buddhism. German Philosopher Arther Schopenhauer, was very much influenced by the Philosophy of Buddhism. He made the ancient Indian Literature accessible to the German people. Many other authors and philosophers were influenced by Schopenhauer. The famous German Indologist, Friedrich Max Muller has also done a great work, as far as the contact between India and Germany is concerned. He has translated “Sacred Books of the East”. INDIAN PHILOSOPHY IN GERMAN WRITINGS Some other German authors were also influenced by Indian Philosophy, the traces of which can be found in their writings. Paul Deussen was a great scholar of Sanskrit. He wrote “Allgemeine Geschichte der Philosophie (General History of the Philosophy). Friedrich Nieztsche studied works of Schopenhauer in detail. He is one of the first existentialist Philosophers. Karl Eugen Neuman was the first who translated texts from Pali into German. Hermann Hesse was also influenced by Buddhism. His famous novel Siddhartha is set in India. It is about the spiritual journey of a man (Siddhartha) during the time of Gautam Buddha. Indology is today a subject in 13 Universities in Germany. Keywords: Indian Philosophy, Germany, Indology, translation, Buddhism, Upanishads.specialization. www.aygrt.isrj.org INDIAN PHILOSOPHY IN GERMAN WRITINGS INTRODUCTION Learning a new language opens the doors of a different culture, of the philosophy and thinking of that particular society.

  • Social Media and the ISIS Narrative Daniel Cunningham, MA Sean F
    Social Media and the ISIS Narrative Daniel Cunningham, MA Sean F. Everton, PhD Robert Schroeder, MA Department of Defense Analysis Naval Postgraduate School Monterey, CA 93943 March 20, 2015 Abstract The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) has attracted the world’s attention and much of its wrath, primarily because of its rapid expansion in Iraq and Syria, its brutal treatment of religious minorities (e.g., Yazidis, Christians), and its beheadings of hostages from Western countries. At this point, it is unclear whether the group represents a global or a sectarian form of jihadism. Is it similar to al-Qaeda, which seeks to target the far enemy (i.e., Western countries such as the U.S. that some in the Muslim world believe exert a corrupting influence on Islamic countries), or is it more sectarian in that it focuses on targeting what it perceives to be the near enemies of Islam (i.e., “corrupt” Islamic nations)? In this paper we address this debate by examining ISIS’s online presence on the social media platform, Twitter, which serves as a forum for supporters to post and receive messages, images, videos, and links to websites to and from a wide-audience. The speed at which users can transmit and receive information via Twitter suggests that an analysis of ISIS-related user accounts and the key themes and concepts they disseminate can contribute to a better understanding of the group’s overall narrative. We examine ISIS’s online presence by extracting from Twitter the semantic networks of its most influential users. We find that a shift may be occurring in the ISIS narrative, from one that focuses on the near enemy to one that focuses on the far enemy.
