No what it means it that it gives you a higher 'ideal' to aim for i.e Unity in a common collective consciousness instead of invented identities that 'races' & 'ethnicities' are ! Which is not to say that you don't feel a sense of affinity towards the language you speak, the culture you practice or the ethnicity you belong to but the moment it starts having an overarching or overbearing imprint on your individual identities is where we need to pause & think - Yes its fascinating how the Punjabi culture & the language evolved over the years & yes its beautiful but at the end of the day it was created out of something else; the keyword being 'created' over here, which is to say - There is little point in walking with a puffed up chest thinking 'Woh..I'm a Punjabi....pataaa nahin mein kiyaa hiii cheeez hooon' !
And the 'higher ideal' part was to impress upon you that if, as Muslims, we believe that Islam is not a 'creation' or at the very least not 'our creation'; that it is infallible & yet we are not, that it has the right to be overbearing for it is the truth then why not having unity in something that guides every moment of every day of your life from the cradle to the grave !
Would that happen in my life time ? No...probably not because we can't transcend the Sunni-Shia BS, provincialism or even ethno-linguistic nationalism ! But it is for that exact hope that compelled Iqbal to say :
'Nazar-e-daireena zamaanee ko dikhaa dei - Aii Mustafavi khaaq mein isss buuutt ko milaa dei'
Eng : Show the old panorama (the Golden Age of Islam) to this Age - Oh follower's of Mustafa (Our Prophet) turn this new idol into dust.
And what is this idol - Ethno-linguistic Nationalism because 'nationalism' by its very definition chooses a thing whether it be race, language or a common history & exalts it to the extent that it overbears everything else ! Thats how you carve out a 'Nation' as per the concept of 'Nationalism'...elevate one thing above everything else till it becomes your most 'revered thing' ! Some have called it Shirk citing the inherent contradiction between that & the Islamic concept of what the most 'revered thing' ought to be ! Others like Pakistan have managed to, though dysfunctional but due to lousy governance & not ideology, bridge together Islamic Identity with a Pakistani identity !
Lets see what the future holds for us.
But I am a firm believer of unity through religion & a firm disbeliever in anything that remotely reeks of 'ethno-linguistic nationalism'.
'Inn tazaaa khudaaonn mein baraa sub seh watan hai - Jo perahan iss ka hai woh mazhab ka kafan hai'
Eng : Of these new idols the greatest is 'watan*' - Its garb is the death shroud of religious unity'
* Watan as in a watan on ethnic & linguistic lines instead of unity through religion.

the basic medical teachings are low quality --- not that we wernt taught the right books but the teachers concentrate less on practical correlations/applications rather more on theoratical info --- i wasnt able to take all the usmle exams cuz of family duties.. but still plan on taking them if i remain steadfast on this field--- i've read the usmle step1 course at least 8 times by now during my fcps training and feel that this was never taught to me in my med school
Phoenix yeh Novel touuu hii parr saktaa mein nahin partaaa !
Achaa give me a few moments to go through that !
Biology sucks like a baytch. You'd better ditch the baytch and become an engineer or a businessman like other wise men.Hi brother! i couldn't send you the PM so WebMaster helped me in this regard.I know like others you are a busy person,and it happens and i've received all of your messages in return.
Being a doctor i'm not enjoying all this what's happening around.Events since the last two years has opened up my eyes.And the battle in me...."Patriotism vs better future" that almost every doctor faces in our conditions has reached to it's logical end.I know i was thinking on the wrong lines there is never a patriotism vs big opportunities. I've worked with the armed forces and also in the government sector a bit as well.But i eventually came to the conclusion that it's not right to crush the opportunities when you can grab those.
I myself am having family issues(not that serious probably),but the advantage i've with me is time.Many of my seniors advised me to "Just leave for a better future where there is much to gain....and don't lose it out here."
Meanwhile people around gave me the friendly advice to change my profession after that Punjab incidents.
Well i'm right now not in practice( a personal decision),because i know that i can manage it very well.But everyone is not like me,my colleagues and friends have to pass through that dark tunnel and face all the hostile environment.So there the question arises that is medical profession in Pakistan is only for the well-off?
I agree with your conclusion that the system from which we have passed in ,isn't meant to make us stand where we should be standing right now.Also the government here is not providing the opportunities.To hell with them, they don't even care about treatment facilities they should be providing to this nation.Words like heath care system are not found in their dictionary.
But that doesn't mean that one must stop striving for excellence.Does it?
We are the son of this motherland.Our perfection & success will help her out in many ways.
(I cite your example,you found yourself lacking in a certain ability,the training wasn't meant to make you reach such a standard but you strived for it and achieved that with your effort.That's the thirst for excellence, i've mentioned.)
Regarding the change of profession,it's your personal choice.
1-Sometimes we want to breathe in some fresh air and try out something new.Boredom is killing.So, my question to you is that surgery so boring?
I opted that just because medicine will be boring and the monotony will kill me.Reading your posts seems the other way around.
2-This life long study is eating you up and you wanna put a full stop now.It's the professional "Harakiri".
My view on it will be you do not have to leave it for ever.Take a time off.Try different venue.Enjoy something else and have fun.I will say have tour to Russia.Fly one of their Mig, after all your knowledge after flying machine should come handy someday.Why not now when you wanna change.
Meanwhile saying that, what's that one thing in your job that if you could change it, would've been better?

The branch manager at Nokia customer care center in Rawalpindi is an MBBS doctor by qualification. He's enjoying his job and is getting paid handsomely.
