The New Perspective of Our Ismaili Intellectual Tradition Which Inspires Ismaili Ignition | Ismaili Digest's Team Talks to You
"I believe our intellectual tradition does not lie in just studying the fruits of other people's intellectual labour -- such as the works handed down from our past luminaries -- but, rather, in the intellectual labour itself.... That is, the actual intellectual activity which produced those works that embodied new thinking ... Think about it this way. If we're not producing new, original works today, what new works will Ismailis, a 1,000 years from now, find worthy to republish or translate from our time? ... Thinking and expressing opinions are at the heart of Ismaili Ignition's understanding of the Ismaili intellectual tradition and why our vision is simply: Help reignite the passion to think for ourselves and encourage each intellect to express itself."
