A journey into the study of Allama Iqbal, his writings, and the great value he and his philosophy have for humanity. This journey may take many sideroads, but all with signposts inspired by Iqbal.
"The weak lose themselves in God; the strong discover Him in themselves."~ Allama Iqbal

"No bird soars too high, if he soars with his own wings."
The words are so true 'no bird soars too high if he soars with his own wings'So William Blake is the master of these words.What can I say,it reminds me about us. Thank you for this Robert>
Wow what a mystical lines, our limits are our wings but if we want to fly to greater heights then we need other wings with us because that gives a momentum a push in flight, if you want to see just check out how great flights of birds take place they are always collective flights. Further one also needs the invisible wings of faith to soar high!
this directs me back to the knowledge of self and humility in that knowing..what arises from dust goes back to it. have always liked this quote but now, somehow over the years I can contemplate it on another dimension. thank you for sharing this, Robert.
