For the development of Khudi (Self) man has to come out from the cocoon of self-centeredness and try to feel the pain of others. What happens in the real world, people think my universe is my family, outside is none of my concern. Once there is a metamorphosis from self-centeredness to other-centeredness Almighty Allah rewards the person in unexpected ways for his unreciprocated and unconditional approach for his fellow brethren. Regarding the evolution of soul to higher orbit in our youth (Akhabiri-Ruh) Iqbal says that they have to think and act above the statistical plane of profit and loss. Youth is an opportunity and you should not let that opportunity go waste in spending your time in lethargy, day dreaming and chasing non-directional goals. Dr Iqbal believes in a strenuous life because in toil we flourish.
