This post at the site shows how committed the earlier leaders of the nation were. They used to put the nation before their own personal likes and dislikes. Not that I am fan of Nehru. I am an ardent believer that if Sardar Patel was the prime minister of India, instead of Nehru, nation would have received a much better direction and set of principles.

Those of you, who have not read or seen Chanakya's Niti Shastra, should pick up a copy of the same. It is a good epitome of practical knowledge. One of the rules (Chapter 3, rule 10) is "Give up a member to save a family, a family to save a village, a village to save a country, and the country to save yourself".

A Byronic Prayer for my country

We can learn a lot from the history. There is so much to learn from mistakes/experiences of the others in the past. It gives us data points which can be referred to before taking a decision (if we are not sure).
