  • Kashmir: Inducing a Following Response R. S. Pirta Himachal Pradesh University, Department of Psychology, India 2002 [email protected]
    Kashmir: Inducing a following response R. S. Pirta Himachal Pradesh University, Department of Psychology, India 2002 [email protected] Keywords: conflict, politics, social behavior, religion, history, Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Kashmir, India. Contents Abstract Introduction Uniqueness of Homo sapiens From biological to cultural evolution Tit for tat: a controversial rational agenda Let nation not doubt its people Summary References Abstract It is an attempt to define the Kashmir problem in term of ideas that describe human group according to its primate ancestry but at the same time showing a radical departure from it. The examples chosen here are however eclectic. In Kashmir there is a contest over space between human groups. These groups have alpha males that extend in space and time. It is not the alpha males' physique but their cultural, religious and knowledge dimensions that are significant. Whereas concepts of freedom, human rights, and holy war are unique human cognitive achievements, they also induce primitive emotions. The group membership shows primate rigidity in the form of nationality but at the same time it is volatile also. It is a key to understand the dialectic of harmony and conflict within a group and between the groups. Involvement of larger alpha males, besides the contestants, is perceived differentially by the two parties. To evolve as a global fraternity, reconciliation is a social device to resolve a conflict amicably. Introduction The political boundary of the space known as the Indian State of Jammu and Kashmir in the western Himalayas was carved out by a Rajput soldier Gulab Singh who served the Sikh Kingdom of Lahore.

  • Cashmere: Kashir That Was Yarbal
    CASHMERE: KASHIR THAT WAS YAAR-BAL -------Somnath Sapru------- Cashmere: Kashir That Was Yarbal CASHMERE: KASHIR THAT WAS YARBAL by Somnath Sapru PART III Publishing details Set and edited at COMPUTRON, Bangalore, INDIA. Copyright by the author 1 Cashmere: Kashir That Was Yarbal Author’s Note Why Yaar-Bal? There are three elements that effect us human beings and are vital to our survival---AIR, it is there all round us but invisible, WATER, it is there only in the form of rivers, streams and wells---without it we cannot survive and FOOD---that Mother Earth helps us to grow and harvest, so that we get the nourishment to work. Since times immemorial, most civilizations have developed and prospered on the banks of rivers. Whether it was Mohenjodaro or Harappa in India or the Egyptian civilization by the river Nile, or the Roman by the river Tiber, or the British by the river Thames, just to name a few, water had to be close by. It was the elixir of life. Only after that would prosperity follow. When wandering tribes searched for a place to set their roots, they always looked for water. Take the case of River Jhelum or Vyeth as we call it. On the river, banks were developed for use. Thus came up the waterfront or the ghat as we in India call it. If you look at the map you will see population spread not only in Srinagar city proper but other places too like Anantnag, Baramula, Sopore and other places where people have their homes either by the side of the water or near about.
