A diseased social organism...


A diseased social organism sometimes sets up within itself forces which have a tendency to preserve the health of the organism - e.g., the birth of a great personality which may revitalise the dying organism by the revelation of a new ideal.

~ Allama Iqbal (from Stray Reflections)

    So beautiful the self-regeneration of systems whether microcosmic such as the self and macrocosmic such as Society...

    We need such reminders of Life, Light and Truth.
