Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim
In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.

This project is called 'Enlightenment Norms' because I would like to bring the teachings of Imam Noor Mowlana Shah Mustansir bi'l-laah II which are published in the book 'Advices of Manliness' (Pandiyat-i Jawanmardi), translated from Persian to English by W. Ivanow and published as The Ismaili Society Series A No. 6. I have chosen different topics and have arranged the material into 40 Enlightenment Norms posts. I hope you will find this approach more effective than just reading the text which is often very repetitive. Enjoy and be become enlightened!
