Journey to Noble Ideals

Droplets of Wisdom from the Heart

About this book

Journey to Noble Ideals is a compilation of speeches Fethullah Gulen delivered in Pennsylvania, USA, between 2012 and 2013. The book provides guidelines to build our individual ladders to self-discovery. In Gulen's prescription, climbing this ladder requires "lifelong contendedness, " "a spirit of chivalry, " "becoming soil to grow roses, " "balance and moderation, " "being self-critical, " "not to be dizzy with worldly pleasures, " and "sincerity of intention." Nourished from a millennium old accumulation of knowledge and tradition, Gulen speaks of preserving one's "chastity of thoughts" but not lagging behind, and instead soaring across the "horizons of spiritual knowledge." For Gulen, a healthy society is built on a "happy marriage, " observing the "rights of neighbors, " "sound reason, " and "asking for forgiveness." Above all, his faith rests on a firm belief that "God is sufficient" for all.This work will be a source of inspiration for all the travelers' journeying to noble ideals.
