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

- Muhammed Iqbal

About this Quote

This quote by Muhammed Iqbal speaks with the concept that spiritual experience is an individual and private journey. It recommends that the truth of spiritual experience is something that can not be shared or communicated to others. This is since spiritual experience is a deeply personal and subjective experience that is distinct to each person. It is something that is felt and understood on a private level, and can not be totally understood by another person. This quote emphasizes the significance of respecting the individual nature of spiritual experience, and the requirement to recognize that it is something that can not be shared or communicated to others. It is a tip that religious experience is something that is deeply individual and should be appreciated as such.
