Culture of Heedlessness

English book, p. 26

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

mind distinguishes him from animals and everything else in the universe. Man’s mind is a great treasure. This mind gives man a distinguishing status not enjoyed by any other thing or being in the universe. The culture of consumerism has vastly exacerbated man’s physical demands and, at the same time, has almost completely stopped the proper development of man’s mind. However, it is the mental component that is man’s real being. It is this that makes man. Without this mental component, man would be just a beast. A movement must be launched to overcome this problem. Once again, man should be brought back to his original or true nature. Man should be made a man once again. Once again, man should be capable of using his intellectual potential for proper development. He should once again become actively engaged in the path of actual intellectual progress.
