Abstract:
This article explores the concept of idealism and its potential to transform society into a more equitable, just, and compassionate world. Idealism if equals to the highest standards becomes a burden, but for the developing world, such burdens may function as a transformer. By examining historical and contemporary examples, philosophical theories, and practical applications, the article argues that idealism, when grounded in realistic and actionable goals, can drive significant social change. We also provide an interpretation of the Quranic anecdote of the companions of the cave (seven sleepers) to a rebirth of the enlightened ones in the right time.
Keywords: Idealism, Seven sleepers, Mahayana
