Common objectives



We get to hear a loing common goals for teams, to attain a certain level of organisational unity. Here is a famous verse from the Rig Veda, which talks about - guess what- common purpose.
And this is is what it means :

Meet together, talk together, let your minds apprehend alike, in like manner as the ancient gods concurring accepted their portion of the sacrifice. --- (1)

Common be the prayer of these assembled worshippers, common be the requirement, common the purpose, associated be the desire. I repeat for you a common prayer, I offer for you with a common oblation. --- (2)

Common, worshippers, be your intention, common be the wishes of your hearts, common be your thoughts, so that there maybe thorough union among you . --- (3)

Talk about good ideas being everlasting !!
