News Flash for Digest + Ignition Ignition Paradigm Proposals: 21st Century Perspectives on Our Faith and Community | Ismaili Digest's Team Talks to You
"Ignition Paradigm Proposals are inspired by Hazar Imam's 1989 guidance where he said: 'Bring forward your ideas. It is only a stupid person who does not listen to ideas. It means he is like a horse ... who lives with blinkers [and] all they can see ahead of them is a little tiny dimension of light.... It is only that sort of a horse that goes straight, straight, straight, straight, straight and it never looks for a new direction, a new idea, something creative. Let's not be a horse with blinkers.... No, that is not for our Jamat. ... Have confidence in your own judgement, confidence in your ability to analyse problems, confidence in your ability to develop solutions to those problems.'"

Tuesday's Teachings (From Life) How success stories mislead us
OZANVAROL.COM -- This story holds important lessons far beyond warfare. If a mathematician hadn't followed his contrarian instincts, World War II may have turned out differently. The question was how to better protect warplanes. In planes that returned home, bullet holes were clustered mostly on the fuselage, but not on the engines. Knowing this, where would you put extra armour? It seems obvious: the places with visible damage. But Abraham Wald thought the right approach was the exact opposite, that it should go where the bullet holes were missing. He realized everyone was looking only at the planes that survived enemy fire -- not at the planes that didn't. ...

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. |
