Give the space
For he and she
They and it
We and me
Give the space
For the love and care
For chance and believe
For trust and humanity
Give the space
To anyone that you meet
To anyone that in need
Because
Only then you will learn
The meaning of serenity
Always encourage people to START TALKING and GET TO WORK - Prof Peter Woods - and PROMOTE ISLAM!

hierarchy of knowledge
I am working on a research of the area of ‘knowledge creation’. The research team’s leader asks me and my friend to identify the results of knowledge creation. One of the previously identified is innovation. So the challenge for both of us is to find out another relevant outcome of the knowledge creation.
So, this morning, I just thought of one thing. The answer should be ‘virtue’. Wasn’t me who had emailed a researcher in a university yesterday suggested that the highest hierarchy of knowledge is virtues, not wisdom? Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas, as I just read last night describes wisdom as a process of integrating introductory knowledge and illuminative knowledge. So, wisdom is tool to achieve virtues.
So, how this could be approved? Social science is thirsty for evidence. I’m still thinking on it. Perhaps, I need to finish reading the ‘Risalah untuk Kaum Muslimin’ first.

lingkungan jauh dan lingkungan dekat.
Pernahkah kawan-kawan mendengar istilah di atas ini. Antara yg dijelaskan oleh saudara Faisal Tehrani di dalam blognya (www.tehranifaisal.blogspot.com) adalah:
Apakah filem lingkungan dekat? Filem lingkungan dekat ialah filem yang tidak dapat keluar dari kongkongan diri. Tema yang diangkat ialah seputar cinta, suami curang, kekasih lama, cinta tak kesampaian, dialognya komik tetapi lucah, bercampur-campur bahasa Melayu, Kantonis dan Inggeris, banyak sekali adengan gomol cumbu serta tidak membangkitkan apa-apa perasaan mencintai negara, bangsa apatah lagi agama secara signifikan. Ingat, secara signifikan. Inilah filem lingkungan dekat. Dan jangan cakap soal bentuk seperti sinematografinya bagus atau naratifnya cemerlang kerana ia adalah subjektif, ia tidak dapat diukur.
Sebaliknya filem lingkungan jauh itu adalah filem yang dialognya tepu falsafah, makna dan mesejnya terang (biarpun terasa seperti propaganda) dan paling bermakna filem ini bercerita soal pembangunan bangsa, aspirasi umat, dan membangkitkan semangat nasionalisme dan patriotisme.Ya mungkin ukuran mise en scene sedikit kurang dari filem lingkungan dekat tadi, mungkin juga filem lingkungan jauh ini sedikit serius, serta tidak membuat anda tertawa sia-sia.
Bagaimana dengan dengan blog, lirik lagu, puisi dan cerita-cerita yg kita kongsi sehari-sehari? Moga-moga kita sentiasa berada dlm kelompok yg memperjuangkan lingkungan jauh. Ananiyah diri mesti dijauhi.
