“Every generation is given a mirror and a hammer. One is for seeing the world as it is. The other is for breaking it and rebuilding it.” ― The Philosopher Orod Bozorg

“Every generation is given a mirror and a hammer. One is for seeing the world as it is. The other is for breaking it and rebuilding it.”
― The Philosopher Orod Bozorg

Some people only use the mirror.
They stare at the world, analyze it, complain about it,
write essays about its flaws,
and then go to sleep inside the same system they hate.

Others only use the hammer.
They smash, destroy, burn—
but without vision, without direction, without purpose.
A broken world without a better blueprint
is just another tragedy in new packaging.

But the awakened—
the ones history remembers—
use both.

They look deeply at the truth,
even when it’s ugly.
They do not sugarcoat injustice.
They do not pretend suffering is normal.
They do not call slavery “tradition.”

Then, with a clear mind and a fearless heart,
they raise the hammer—
not out of rage,
but out of responsibility.

Because a generation that refuses to rebuild
does not deserve to inherit the future.

And a generation that only rebuilds without understanding
will repeat the same mistakes in a new style.

The mirror is for wisdom.
The hammer is for courage.
Orodism teaches we must use both — or change nothing.
