A Point to Ponder-Mahatma

If two laws of compensation and Deprivation are true opposite and equal, would it not mean that the strivings of the humankind shall always remain more or less static by such contrary forces? The fact that there are those who do not merey acquiesce to them as final and are willing to overcome odds against them we ought to consider them as the true pioneers who carry the civilization forward.
Such great souls speak for the entire species. Most of us work far below our full potentials. Where does that energy leftover go to?

*Great souls are those who cover our lapses or shortfall by their solid achievements. Mohandas Gandhi or Bapu as he is affectionately remembered by India was one such. He made non-violence an effective weapon and showed the world the path of Ahimsa. He showed to the world of violence against the growing stridency of fascism in Europe and military Jingoism of Japan a better path. Hitler was a bully and a mad man whereas Gandhi became a Mahatma.
