    Hi Albie,

    It's great to hear from you :).

    Iqbal does strongly respect and reference the ideas of Mary Parker Follett, along with C.R. Das as well. Here is a link for him:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chittaranjan_Das

    I really appreciate your comments here about Sidgwick.  

    I am close friends with Khurram Sir, and am an active participant in his Iqbal Studies courses.

    There is an unusual and deep resonance between the ideas of Iqbal, Follett, and C.R. Das.  Khurram Sir is the only person I know who has taken all of this to a new level of study and application toward solving today's problems.  Specifically, he shows how Iqbal interpreted the Qur'an in a certain way, a way very closely akin to Islamic sufism.  Oddly enough, Follett's very early teachings connect strongly (and have influenced strongly) Iqbal's understandings, not so much in a so -called religious sense (at least in the typical definition of religion), but more so in how people come together, harmoniously and effectively, as groups, organizations, societies, and as a totality of humanity.

    I like all this.  I work a very busy day-job, and wish I could retire to devote more time to all of this.

    Thanks so much for reaching out to me.  I like connecting with you here :).

    All good wishes,

    robert

    Good day,
    I picked interest in you after going through your short profile and demanding it is necessary for me to write to you immediately. I have something very important to discuss with you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on (ronmorri01@gmail.com) for full details.
    Best regards,
    Ronald Morris.
