India’s Most Fearless: True Stories of Modern Military Heroes

by Shiv Aroor

‘A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself.’

What, after all, is a more human emotion than fear?

‘I would say I owe it to the opportunity—being in that place at that time. I think any soldier in my place would do the same.’ It’s true. Heroes walk among us.

For the preservation of peace, the war is constant.

Fearlessness is the first requisite of spirituality. Cowards can never be moral.
