World War II was in full swing. The game of fire, blood and horror had engulfed half the world. Millions of people had been killed. Cruelty’ and barbarism’ were naked and engaged in the dance of death before the world. Even inside Russia, this terrible game was in full swing. Poland was also a victim of this hellish circus.
Germany and Russia together attacked this small country. About 1,000 children and Polish women boarded a ship to save their lives. Went to the ports of different countries to maintain the breathing cord. But no country had the courage to shelter them. Britain, a superpower at that time, had refused to give them protection in their country.
Forced people ‘humiliated by different countries’ came to Bombay by accident. The British governor also refused to take them. It was a sign of helplessness and helplessness that these travelers were close to dying of hunger. But the system of nature is different and it is impossible to understand it. When the ruler of Nawangar state came to know about this issue, he took a bold decision without asking the British government. Ordered that the ship was allowed to anchor at the port by his state.
The British rulers were very angry. But this great person did not care. The name of this noble king was Maharaja Dago Jayranjit Sanji. Hakim’ gave a very elegant welcome to these helpless passengers at the port. You people are not orphans and poor. From today the king of Nawangar is like your father. The unfortunate passengers were in disbelief. The ruler of a foreign country’ will prove to be an angel of mercy for them. Immediately luxurious tents were erected. Every facility was provided to the Polish refugees. At the same time, a magnificent building was constructed which was named Bala Chadi Camp. It was near the Maharaja’s summer palace. It had all the comforts of the world. A few days after the arrival of the emigrants, the Maharaja organized a banquet for the children.
He was surprised to see that they were not eating eagerly. The Maharaja immediately realized that Indian food was different from Polish food. And these people can only eat the food of their homeland. The Maharajah ordered that cooks who could cook Polish food should be sent from any country. So twenty cooks were selected and started cooking for the children according to their taste.
The Maharaja established a Polish school for the children. A library was built for them. In which their language books were ordered. Plays were organized for the children in their mother tongue. Maharaja used to watch every play himself. After the show, hand-made coffees were distributed to the children. A Polish immigrant, Wieslaw Stypula, wrote the whole situation in a book. Whose name was At the Polish Maharaja. Children also played football and volleyball.
The Maharaja paid the right to be a father. This beautiful series continued from 1942 to 1946. At the end of World War II, all the children and women were transferred to European countries of their choice. When the Russian occupation of Poland ended in 1989, the independent government of Poland named a square in Warsaw after the Maharaja. In 2012, a park in Warsaw was named “The Good King”. The Polish government awarded the Maharajah with the Commander`s Cross of the order of merit, the highest government award. The Maharajah died in 1966. Even today, this European country i.e. Poland is a person dear to every heart. A bandit ministry was created on this loving incident. Which was called Little Poland in India.
This true story makes one think a lot. If a person becomes a passenger in the caravan of good behavior. So his position is superior to the angels. If the same person goes towards downfall, Satan also seeks refuge from him. Now this decision is completely personal. Which path does one choose? If you distill the essence of all the religions of the world, one element will be seen as the same. Rather, it will be the real essence. That is “love and affection for humanity”. People who understand this point. Every breath they take turns into goodness. Beliefs ‘to serve regardless of caste and color’ is the real purpose of life. But doing all this is not easy at all.
To serve the common people by denying oneself is a very noble work. I would venture to say that the student sees a lot of roughness around him. Corruption is corruption. The selfless spirit of service is clearly visible. But should this very short-sighted sentiment be rejected? Not at all ‘wherever it appears. It should be respected and respected. It should be mentioned that even today there are such excellent examples.
Where there is selflessness and sincerity. Where there is peace and love. Where hatred dies at the doorstep. If I speak in a personal capacity, then there is no shame in admitting it. That the real religion is only humanity and it is hidden in the welfare and well-being of the common man. I myself am a lost passenger of the same caravan. Who delights in the happiness of people. He is saddened by their sufferings and who gives the status of worship to the distribution of ease among people.
The greatest name of our region is Abdul Sattar Edhi, whose welfare work has made his name known to the living world. But look around you. You will definitely see some Edhi in every town, village, village, city. His name will certainly be different. The difference in stature will also be natural. But the work will be almost the same. There can be no distinction between small and big work in serving people. A person who earns only two hundred rupees a day. But on returning home, he feeds only one bread to a hungry person.
He is also a very big man. I often see such incidents that a person or bandi stops in the square. Food boxes are distributed to the people standing there. The person who eats the food does not know at all who this virtuous person is. Which is killing their hunger. But God or nature knows who this angelic person is. His reward is also theirs. The facilitator ‘often’ gets out of his problems with great ease. One point is worth noting here. Your goodness or any act ‘which you consider in the category of goodness. Don’t propagate it. Oh God, don’t advertise it. The heart is visible. When a picture is seen in the newspaper that such and such a philanthropist has distributed wheels to disabled people.
At least the student feels that there is a danger of the image losing its virtue. The sad thing is that most of us tend to exaggerate our small good deeds. But most people of other nations do not feel the help of others. Just think what difference it would make to Bill Gates if malaria was eradicated in Africa. But that good man distributes billions of dollars in African countries so that people don’t die from mosquito bites. What has Warren Buffet benefited from dedicating his property? Read carefully. Humanity itself is the greatest religion of this planet and those who fearlessly engage in this good work are the best people.
Open your mind. Tear down the walls of hatred. Try and see according to your status, try to make service of common people your motto. If you can’t give anything to someone. Still no problem. Good wishes’ put in his cradle. Maharaja Dagoje, contrary to the thinking of the British government, ‘gave shelter to children and women’ none of whom he knew.
The religious beliefs of these refugees were also unknown. But he had that passion to serve humanity. who elevated him from Maharaja to Emperor. The emperor of the people. If you follow this path, you will see. The beauty of life will be revealed. The Maharaja made Poland in the subcontinent. Believe me. A little Poland will be created around you!
