Wo kya Zamana Hoga Jab Maa Ke Laal hanste Hanste phasi par chadhjate the
Aaj to Maa ka aanchal bechne se bhee hum nahee katratein hain

Hey Prabhu meri smriti ko itna bhee sankeen na banao
Ki unko bhool kar main apni zindagi main kho jaoun

Kaanp jaati hai aatman jab unki kurbaani yaad aati hai
Kash ki ye maans ka tukda bhee Aihle Watan ke Kaam Aaye

Majority rule works if you're also considering individual rights. Because you can't have five wolves and one sheep voting on what to have for supper.

Success

I've missed more than 9000 shots. I've lost almost 300 games. I've failed over and over again. And that is why I succeed.

Buddhist Folktale

An old story speaks about a similar problem. A devoted meditator, after years concentrating on a particular mantra, had attained enough insight to begin teaching. The student's humility was far from perfect, but the teachers at the monastery were not worried.

A few years of successful teaching left the meditator with no thoughts about learning from anyone; but upon hearing about a famous hermit living nearby, the opportunity was too exciting to be passed up.
