The greatest gift is man’s free will.
Otherwise, our life would be as monotonous
as that of monkeys without new discoveires,
without transformations, without higher and
higher civilizations.
The more we argue and act against God,
the more we see His omnipotence and heartily
submit our will under His Divine Will.

Abdul-Baha says:

“The individuality of each created thing is based upon divine wisdom, for in the creation of God there is no defect. However, personality has no element of permanence. It is a slightly changeable quality in man which can be turned in either direction. For if he acquire praiseworthy virtues, these strengthen the individuality of man and call forth his hidden forces; but if he acquire defects, the beauty and simplicity of the individuality will be lost to him and its God-given qualities will be stifled in the foul atmosphere of self.”
(Abdu’l-Baha, Divine Philosophy, p. 131)

HAIKU

Each individual
Freely makes personal choice
And remains unique

RELIGION DOESN’T MATTER?

The religion you practice it doesn’t matter if you live by the golden rule you will enter heaven. True or false.

Absolutely false and absolutely true.
Golden rule selected by men are false.
Golden rule gleaned from Holy Books are true.
Selfish love desired by men is false.
Selfless love taught by the Messengers of God is true.
Yes, we don’t need to bear labels,
but we need to know where is the source
of Divine Guidance.
Heaven is not a place to enter,
it is the spiritual condition of the enlightened soul.

Life is not based on years, but on living.
He who is serving mankind in 30 years lives longer
than him who is dating for 90 years.
See how great is the difference of the life of Christ
and that of old patriarchs committing sin of pedophile!
The glory of life is through education, not imitation.

Abdul-Baha says:

“We must be adorers of the sun of reality from whatsoever horizon it may appear, rather than adorers of the horizon; for should we concentrate our attention in one direction, the sun may appear from quite another and leave us deprived of the sun’s bestowals which are the wisdom and guidance of God and the favor of God, which constitute spiritual progress.” (Abdu’l-Baha, Divine Philosophy, p. 33)

HAIKU

Great saints are young saints
Good old people try in vain
With mortal bodies

Year of Dragon, Day 91

Today, only a click of my finger already
connects my body to the immense universe.
The Internet really shows how marvelous is our mind;
this unseen part of our body is telling the difference
between the real and the artificial intelligence.
Wishing that generations to come will be more
busy with their new life of worship and service,
with happiness and progress.

Abdul-Baha says:

“I hope you will be the cause of opening the eyes and exalting the spirits to follow divine direction. Thus you will assist others to walk in the path of the good pleasure of the Lord. Assuredly it is not to eat, nor to sleep, nor to dress, nor to repose on the couch of negligence. Nay, it is to find one’s way to eternity an understand the divine signs; to receive wisdom from the Lord of Lords, and to move steadily forward like a great sea. This is my hope for thee. “
(Abdu’l-Baha, Divine Philosophy, p. 38)

HAIKU

Man is greater world
Let him reflect divine light
Throughout universe
