There is nothing wrong with being the most important person under the sun if everybody else is just as important as you are.
The person and society are yoked, like mind and body. Arguing which is more important is like debating whether oxygen or hydrogen is the more essential property of water.
What is important to another person must be as important to you as the other person is to you
I make no bones about the fact that India matters to me, and I would like to matter to India.
What is necessary is to teach each class and profession the importance of the others. All together form one mighty body; labourer, peasant, and professional man.
