In the Heart of Man

The World, which has no being of its own
Groped for a way to self-fulfilment, and,
Escaping from non-being’s no-man’s land,
It found its being in the heart of man.
~from Message of the East

May the message of Iqbal spread.  May its essence become known and embodied.  
May humanity come to its senses.  
May humanity not give up on itself.  
May humanity succeed in unearthing its splendors.
Inshallah, may this occur...now.
Happy New Year to All!
