Picture: Comrade Kishanji


All men must die, but death can vary in its significance. The ancient Chinese writer Szuma Chien said, 


"Though death befalls all men alike, it may be weightier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather." To die for the people is weightier than Mount Tai, but to work for the fascists and die for the exploiters and oppressors is lighter than a feather. 


Comrade Kishanji died for the people, and his death is indeed weightier than Mount Tai .
