Dear Student

Please find below the solution to your query

1.  It is definitely true that a single incident may overturn a person's life completely and in King Ashoka's life too the impact of Kalinga war changed completely. 
2.  King Ashoka was a great warrior and under his reign Mauryan dynasty reached its zenith. He conquered Kalinga due to its importance of its location and he was successful in the war. 
3.  But the aftermath of the war was terrifying as over 150 thousand people were wounded and many were killed. 
4.  This incident created a change in Ashoka's life and heart. He vowed never to wage any war ever after. He embraced Buddhism thereafter.
