Though i am not an engineer (i am a lay-man), if you have the time, i want you to readabout Zain Yar Jung (Architect) and Ali Nawaz Jung (Engineer)... and also the Austrian Architect, JASPER. Soviet Union crumbled cuz there was no beauty (ishq) in their work. It was mechanical (without heart). Any work (effort) / building which has a heart.. lives longer ! That has to be understood. Pls. read about Zain and Ali and Jasper. Cheers. Absolutely.. well noted, Sidhusaaheb.
