apotheosis of an inflexible organization 305

[Mirza Ahmad Sohrab]

Sohrab > apotheosis of an inflexible organization 305

"The spirituality that one could somehow feel in the two previous
constitutions is utterly missing in this portentous and formidable
Declaration of Trust [1926]. It is an ice-bound, juridical documents.
Its articles are like hailstones that pierce and cut into the heart of
the reader; its phrases are so wind-laden that they transform the balmy
atmosphere of the Paradise of Abha into the frigid immensities of Nova
Zembla; it is the apotheosis of an inflexible organization, the
hypostasis of the machine; it is the Bastille of Paris, the Tower of
London and the Concentration Camp of the Third Reich all rolled into
one, and striking terror into the soul of a most hardy champion of
freedom of conscience!" (305).
