Ashoka's Life

Hence the message was sent to courts and rulers of Near East and Macedonia and to countries of South East Asia

As you say,

Your Majesty

Please spread this message, It's not important to perform rituals or keep fasts to please god. But instead follow practices such as:-

Being gentle with slaves and servants.
respecting one's elders.
Treating all creatures with compassion.
Giving gifts to brahmins monks.

One should try to understand the main ideas of another's religion, and respect it

Thank god, what a wonderful idea of peace I got at the kalinga war.

Why fight these people, when they will not accept me by heart. I should try another way.

At the Kalinga War

Ma'am should I eat the left over food of last night, so that it's not wasted?

No, it would be stale by now. Please eat the fresh food cooked right now.

Relevance of Buddha's Dhamma in 21st century:-

At last, tomorrow we will be able to chop down this entire forest.

And build our dream building.

Oh no!

Sir; you can't do this as this forest is a home to plenty of animals. Also, we have a warrant.
