MAJOR : (Showing Photo and the book; "Gandhi-the warrior" ] Gandhi-whose way of nonviolent war will be triumphant for the ages to come-- even far more effectively in this space age........ (All surprisingly reacting : "Gandhi-the warrior" ] MARSHAL : We are convinced here, sir, but the question is How Gandhi's way could be applicable to us, especially to our Space War? We follow that we should not continue it for taking revenge but for the prosperity, peace, happiness and preventing aggressions, shouldn't we have it? MAJOR : Do other countries want the same thing or not? MARSHAL: Of course. MAJOR : Then where does the conflict remain ? If we want these things, we can't and shouldn't come in others' ways who also want the same! And if we follow this, hardly other countries will dare to make an aggression and even if they do, our Peace Force wild definitely defeat them.....the first thing is we must have the courage and confidence. I have talked these matters in detail with the Marshal and others........ These books and speeches of Gandhi also will be very much useful for us. I therefore show the only remedy for us to convert our Forces into Peace Forces and to launch novel programmes which will be ready in details in course of time. FIELD MARSHAL : This is worth-adopting sir..... We are really fortunate to have such a way........ MAJOR : But I shall like to know whether all of you like to agree with this idea first of all ? MARSHAL & OTHERS : We totally agree with you, sir.... SPACE SOLDIER & OTHERS: We all stand by you and your plans, sir. MAJOR : I am really very very happy to know this decision. We take a pledge to-day to coordinate Non-violence with our Scientific weapons and war and we convert our Force into the Peace Force.., agreed ? ALL : Agreed. MAJOR : Then from to-day, from the DEATH-CENTENARY, YEAR OF GANDHI we convert and declare ourselves to be the Soldiers of Peace. We shall remain conscious of each and every action of ours, will strictly follow Truth and Non-violence, will regard the whole universe as our home. And if at all others invade us, we shall launch the non-violent war from land as well as space. We shall go resisting everywhere and will peacefully lay down our lives first till peace is restored. ALL: We agree. MAJOR : Then please repeat with me the slogan of that old Peace Soldier who died hereJAI JAGAT........JAI SHANTI......(Effect: Harp..) . Let the world be victorious, let peace be victorious........(Effect: Harp] [All repeat the same]
