India is expanding its fighting capability against China. 50,000 additional troops will be deployed on the Chinese border. They will be specially trained and equipped for mountain warfare. All of the Indo-China border falls in the high Himalayas.
The two countries have a longstanding border dispute. It led to a bloody battle between them in 1962. India accuses China of occupying 38,000 square kilometers of its territory in the disputed region of Jammu and Kashmir, while the government in Beijing lays claim to 90,000 square kilometers of land in the state of Arunachal Pradesh in northeast India.

Simply an amazing tribute to God and His Creation." Throughout history butterflies have fascinated artists and philosophers, scientists and school children with their profound mystery and beauty. In METAMORPHOSIS you will explore their remarkable world as few have before.
Spectacular photography, computer animation and magnetic resonance imaging open once hidden doors to every stage of a butterfly's life-cycle. From an egg the size of a pinhead...to a magnificent flying insect. It is a transformation so incredible biologists have called it "butterfly magic."
The superbly engineered body of a butterfly is magnified hundreds of times to reveal compound eyes made of thousands of individual lenses, wings covered with microscopic solar panels that warm the insect's muscles for flight, and navigational systems that unerringly guide Monarch butterflies on their annual migration from Canada to Mexico.
How did these extraordinary creatures come into being? Are they the products of a blind, undirected process? Or, were they designed by an intelligence that transcends the material world?
Filmed in the rain forests of Ecuador, Mexico's Trans-Volcanic mountain range, and leading research centers, METAMORPHOSIS is an unforgettable documentary filled with the joys of discovery and wonder.

/Members of the al-Qaeda-linked group, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant have confessed to having direct links with Saudi Arabia.
An Iraqi channel has aired confessions of members of the militant group, admitting to have relations with Riyadh. In the Afaq TV broadcast, ISIL insurgents also confess to Saudi Arabia\'s role in terrorist attacks in a number of Iraqi provinces. One of the members says a Saudi military official ordered him to carry out several attacks. Iraq has arrested a large number of insurgents during several operations recently. This comes as the Iraqi army and Sunni tribesmen continue their fight against ISIL militants. Iraq is experiencing its worst cycle of violence since 2008, with al-Qaeda-linked militants flexing their muscles on Baghdad\'s doorstep.

Episode 6 of the ground-breaking new film following the journey of five students as they make their way to the Holy land of Karbala.
The journey is nearing its end. The pilgrims are reaching the limits of their efforts and must remind themselves to keep on going. In this state of exhaustion, the students are delighted to find that the people of Iraq are not only providing free food, water and places to stay for the night, but also giving free massages to the pilgrims to ease the tension in their aching muscles out of their love for Imam Husayn [a].
After having found a tent to spend the night in, the students wonder about Imam Husayn. Who was this person who has inspired so many people to make the walk?
What is it about the ancient city of Karbala that captivates Muslims? What makes approximately 30 million people travel there each year?
The ziarat [pilgrimage] to Karbala is considered a sacred journey for Muslims across the world, especially the followers of Ahlulbayt (as).
Every week, Islamic Pulse will be releasing two episodes of âWhen He Callsâ by the will of God, so stay tuned

How can we control our thoughts
Agha Ali Reza Panahian Oct.30,2019
In the same way that you should exercise for your muscles to become strong, in exactly the same way, the way to start to increase spiritual power is with mind exercises. Exercising the mind is through mind control. My mind shouldnât wander everywhere. My mind should go where I order it to go. In the same way that when you exercise you strengthen your arm, Allamah Tabatabai has given exercises for controlling the mind.
Allamah Tabatabai said in his book âRisalah al-Wilayah,â âChoose a quiet place

==============================
The first, most common, important, influential, valuable, effective psychological effect of the verses of the Qurâan is the induction of God\'s greatness in the heart of His servant. What will be the result of this? The result is one feeling small and humble, and one becoming crushed before the greatness of God. From then on, pleasure, enlightenment, mercy, kindness and everything good can be tasted. If someone reads the Qur\'an like this, he wonât abandon the Qur\'an anymore and will become fond of it. Try it.
The first of Godâs attributes that you must pay attention to in order for your soul to become corrected, and so that light, mercy and the doors to all beauties will be opened to you, is Godâs greatness. Do you know what the result of this will be? When you recite the Qur\'an, it is as if you are attending a workshop that inspires Godâs greatness in your soul!
This is not like listening to a speech, which is about exercising and the human anatomy for instance. They say, âThis is an arm muscle. Repeating this move 20 times brings about these changes.â But you have not exercised. But if you actually go to a gym, you will start exercising, sweating and strengthening your muscles. When you recite the Qurâan, it is as if you have gone to a gym and are practicing with Godâs attribute of greatness. This is very surprising and important! This is the first action that helps build up the human soul. If this is true, itâs very important. Itâs a key point.
The first feeling that one must find with respect to God is feeling humble and small before God. [You say,] âIâm your little one.â After saying this, you start loving God too. Letâs not run before we can walk! We cannot love God unless we become small before Him. We must first become small before Him. We should pay attention to the Qurâan. You prostrate before God [when praying]. Have you noticed this? Have you noticed that you bow down? Have you noticed that you put your face on the dust? Why donât you bat an eye at this?
What I am talking about has been mentioned in the Qurâan too. âHad We sent down this Qurâan on a mountain, you would certainly have seen it falling down, splitting asunder because of its fear of Allah.â [Qurâan 59:21] What is meant by âfalling down, splitting asunderâ is that it would have become small and crushed.
Have you seen how when some people are arguing they say, âYouâre nothing to meâ? This means youâre very small. âSplitting asunderâ means it becomes small and crushed. O God, crush us. And who can understand the pleasure of becoming crushed by reciting the verses of the Qur\'an? The way to become fond of the Qurâan is to become crushed with it. But sometimes we donât even bat an eye. An example is when a person is cursed but doesnât even bat an eye. The Qurâan is crushing you. Be affected by it and see how enjoyable it is.
Write this phrase Iâm saying a hundred times tonight! Become crushed with the verses of the Qurâan and see how enjoyable it is. You donât need to write it more than a hundred times! We will remember it. Become crushed with the verses of the Qurâan and see how enjoyable it is. This does not need much spiritual wayfaring. You will become fond of the Qurâan.
