"India conquered and dominated China culturally for two thousand years without ever having to send a single soldier across her border."~ Hu Shih

"When Buddhism came to influence India (circa 500 B.c), the Deity Nataraja was converted to become one of the four protectors of Buddhism, and was renamed Nar (y)ayana Deva (Chinese: Na Lo Yen Tien). He is said to be a protector of the Eastern Hemisphere of the mandala."

In light of the present situation with China, I am quoting from a write-up by a Poona Horse officer on how legendary Lt Gen Hanut Singh Rathore, MVC dealt with the Chinese in 1982.

 @rathorekaran17
In 1982, Lt Gen (then Maj General) Hanut Singh Rathore, MVC, the doyen of armoured warfare in the South Asian region and hero of 1971 war Battle of Basantar, was posted to command 17 Mountain Division in Sikkim, the armour general protested and demanded that2+

he be given command of an armoured division, as it rightfully and logically be done in view of his deep insight of armoured warfare and the opportunity to pass it on to his subordinates.

As per Vedanta, observable universe (Prapancha) along with the cognizer (Drashta) is nothing but recursion of चेतन तत्व( ब्रह्म).By the process of नेति-नेति a seeker undoes all the levels of recursion and find him/her self to be nothing but "एक अखंड अद्वितीय चेतन तत्व" or ब्रह्म.
As long as a cognizer (Drashta) identifies himself with any of the recursion levels not knowing his/her reality of being "एक अखंड अद्वितीय चेतन तत्व" or ब्रह्म, he/she will keep moving from one level to other and thus remain stuck in life-death cycle.

What I said abv is told in साधुसंत-सनातन ब्राह्मण परंपरा as follows:

"झूठेउ सत्य जाहि बिनु जानें। जिमि भुजंग बिनु रजु पहिचानें॥
जेहि जानें जग जाइ हेराई। जागें जथा सपन भ्रम जाई॥"~ श्रीरामचरितमानस

Talking of Nirguna saints' and their interaction with Islam, Sri Sitataram Goel wrote:

"Kabir and Nanak and numerous other nirguNa saints failed to carry any conviction with the mullahs and the sufis and the sultans.

The latter were either too self-righteous or too enamoured of the power and pelf which the exclusiveness of Islam had earned for them. Kabir had to suffer persecution from Sikandar Lodi for questioning this exclusiveness.
2/
Guru Arjun Deva and Guru Tegh Bahadur had to lay down their lives in defence of Sanãtana Dharma.
In the final round, however, the nirguNa saints succeeded only in confusing Hindu society into believing that Islam was just another religion and not an ideology of imperialism.
