The Ismaili - Nutrition Centre
Salmon Croquettes
Healthy Hints You could keep the skin on the potatoes to get some extra fibre. You might think this looks unappetising, but the skin is hardly noticeable. Also, try adding some vegetables like cooked diced carrots or canned sweet corn. When you deep fry foods, make sure the oil is piping hot (best at 180 C), fry them quickly and drain ...

Ismaili Research Problems -- BoAI Vol 1
GOOGLE.COM -- Next to my mind comes an oral history department. It is high time that our research centres in India, Pakistan, Africa and Middle East should establish oral history departments. This means collecting the facts about the recent and not very remote history of our people orally from the elder generation which is fast disappearing. With them we shall lose a great heritage which has not been recorded. It is easy to understand that in the absence of organizations such as exist today, the history of our people has remained unrecorded particularly in the Middle East where we had practically no organizations and old traditions have passed from generation to generation by mouth. It is most essential that a batch of young ...

Conflict Resolution for Ismailis
GOOGLE.COM -- Mawlana Hazar Imam, Madagascar, 2003: "Remember that Islam says: try to find compromise in your conflicts, so that each may retain their dignity. Islam does not say: there must be a winner and a loser. And if, in your differences, you seek absolute victory, and in these differences there are losers, these losers are marginalised, they lose their position in society, they have great difficulty in rebuilding a sound future. Thus, I ask the Jamat today, when you have differences between you, find solutions of compromise so that each may come out of the situation with their heads held high, that none can say of such and such family or of such and such individual that it is over, they have been destroyed. This is not Islam; destruction is not Islam." (Unofficial translation from French) ...

Tuesday's Teachings (From Life)
Who Is Nassim Taleb? Antifragile Thinking for a Fat-Tailed World
FS.BLOG -- Nassim Taleb is exquisitely credentialed: a Wharton MBA and PhD from the University of Paris, yet believes that academia produces insights that are far removed from the realities of the world, and that credentials are largely for show.... "We are made to follow leaders who can gather people together because the advantages of being in groups trump the disadvantages of being alone. It has been more profitable for us to bind together in the wrong direction than to be alone in the right one. Those who have followed the assertive idiot rather than the introspective wise person have passed us some of their genes." ...

And it's not an Asian phenomenon, this is true of Africa also. Globe and Mail: What elements are needed ...

Al-Andalus was a Knowledge Society of its time
"The fundamental reason for the pre-eminence of Islamic civilisations lay neither in accidents of history nor in acts of war, but rather in their ability to discover new knowledge, to make it their own, and to build constructively upon it. They became the Knowledge Societies of their time." Mawlana Hazar Imam, AKU Convocation, December 6, 2006 The most enduring legacy of ...

Think of Ismaili Digest as the Front Page of all the best Ismaili websites! Ismaili Digest automatically and continuously brings together all new articles, photos, videos, etc. from Ismaili websites -- like The Ismaili, Simerg, IIS, NanoWisdoms, AKDN, Ismailimail, etc. -- so you can see them all at once. Direct links to over 15,000 web-pages from the best Ismaili websites already available. Ismaili Digest saves you (and those who are not tech savvy, such as seniors) the effort of having to visit them one by one to keep up to date, or have your inbox cluttered with emails from each of them when they publish new content. In a busy world, our sense of belonging to our community sometimes tends to wither and fade (particularly for isolated Jamati members). We hope Ismaili Digest's simplicity and comprehensiveness will help you feel connected as well as feel the local and global pulse of the community. Like many other non-commercial, public-service thematic website aggregators, Ismaili Digest is just a thematic aggregator. We publish short 50-60 word digests of all their content and provide direct links to their original pages saving you time, extra page loads and clicks. For the website publishers, direct links ensure they'll get the maximum number of potential visitors reaching their content so their hard work gets the maximum exposure. Also featured are other important articles, research and opinions relevant to the community's well being, intellectual growth, best practises and administration. And all served with a drop of humour as well, because "we are a community that welcomes the smile!" Ismaili Digest is not associated with any private Ismaili website, whether aggregated by Ismaili Digest or not. All websites Ismaili Digest aggregates are independent websites run by their individual owners and we are not responsible for content they publish. |
