Quote by Muhammad Iqbal

The standpoint of the man who relies on religious experience for capturing Reality must always remain individual and incommunicable.

The standpoint of the man who relies on religious experience

Summary

This quote suggests that the perspective of a person who relies on religious experiences to understand truth or reality can never be effectively conveyed or shared with others. It implies that these experiences are highly personal and subjective, making it challenging for individuals to articulate or convey the depth and meaning of their spiritual encounters to others. Ultimately, this highlights the inherent limitations of language in capturing the full essence of religious experiences and emphasizes their individual nature.
