the last fifty years peoples’ awareness was kindled for bread alone. Each one must get bread. Better bonus will not make soldier a better fighter, Those who think only of their bread, may sell security secrets to enemy, Most of the Japanese do not do so and therefore the borders of the State remain protected.

If you think rationally then Param Vir Chakra is not useful for getting a meal in the day. And if I do not survive what is the use of medal to me? If I die what is the use of medal or money? This is a very rational thought. Everyone knows that wisdom. If you die in fight you will go to heaven and if you are successful you will earn the kingdom on this earth is a logical assumption, because the heaven is imaginary, why not accept the suzerainty of a superior power?
