Spiritual DemocracyThe innovative solution for individuals, organizations
and governments A 3-hour workshop by Khurram Ali Shafique, Winner of the Presidential Iqbal Award for Iqbal: an Illustrated Biography (2006)
Iqbal categorically stated that the
ultimate ideal of Islam was spiritual democracy. He did not explain the concept
because he didn’t need to. Back in 1930, the concept was widely
understood not only within the Muslim world but also outside – especially in
America. It goes to the credit of the subsequent generations that they have
completely obliterated this cherished ideal which had been upheld by so many
cultures as the only hope for their future – i.e., our present.
The purpose of this workshop is to
show that the ideal has survived in Pakistan against all odds, and can be
redeemed for achieving spectacular success personally, socially, politically
and globally.
In this three-hour workshop, we shall
try to understand the concept of spiritual democracy through interactive
exercises based on the writings of Iqbal, Mary Parker Follett, C. R. Das,
Waheed Murad and many others.
Rediscover spiritual democracy from
primary sources and regain hope.
