Rajen: > (Moral is : Don't lead, just follow)
I read that slightly differently: ***The literal meaning as: The leading cattle is lifted by the tiger. *** The figurative meaning is: That the leaders always get attacked. As in someone leading with a progressive stance is usually attacked by the conservative forces. Or someone proposing new or better ideas are usually attacked by the establishment as reactionary, or subversive, or destabilizing--- so on aand so forth. It is an astute Oxomiya proboson, full of wisdom, the moral of which is : Watch out, if you advocate progressive ideas, you will be pulled down by the establishment, and not as you read it "Don't lead, just follow", which is an admonition against taking a leading role, not encouraging it.
