उपकारो हि नीचानां अपकरो हि जायते |

उपकारो हि नीचानां अपकरो हि जायते |

I remembered one 'Subhashit' which seems be very relevant for present situation as we read the news of 'Kashmir' and its situation. In addition to this, issues related to Bangladesh and Pakistan with smell of 'Rohingya' all are related to our country.
I hope and pray that this it to be kept in mind while taking any decision or step.
उपकारो हि नीचानां अपकरो हि जायते |
पयःपानं भुजंगाणां केवलं विषवर्धनं ||
नीच (दुष्ट) माणसावर कितीही उपकार केले तरी त्याची परतफेड अपकारीनेच करतो ।
सापाला दूध पाजले तरी त्यातून फक्त विषाचीच वृद्धी होते ।।
(दुष्टावर उपकार करणे म्हणजे त्याच्या दुष्टपणाच्या वृद्धीला आपण मदत करणे होय)
Meaning of the subhAShita:
Benefaction to the evil only bears misdeeds. Feeding milk to a snake only aids to increasing (its) poison.
Commentary:
It is hard to change the nature of certain things or people. The example given here is that of a snake. No matter how much milk is fed, it only assists in increasing its poison. It strikes back with more ferociousness and tenacity...
Similarly, patronizing the evil spirits only brings harm. They incessantly work towards harming others. Staying away from such influences is the best approach.
