I believe in the One True God and I
always try to do His Will.
I make emphasis on One True God
to lead to the consequence of One Religion
and One Mankind.
The world will only reflect the Divine Unity
when followers of all religions realize this
fact about One God, One Religion, One Mankind.
To do the Will of God in reflecting Divine Unity
each and all believers have to understand the Teachings,
to meditate about divine reality and to observe
the divine laws of fasting, praying, and serving mankind.
Today, religious doesn’t mean mere worship,
but it means to attain conscious knowledge and
determine to translate knowledge into actions.
Divine education is not filling the mind with formulas,
but to train each and all human beings into
true children of God, not in form, but in spirit.
This education is not to perform rituals routinely in
churches, but to study, to assimilate and to grow
spiritually through the worlds of God.

Baha’u’llah says:

 

“The time has come when all mankind shall be united, when all races shall be loyal to one fatherland, all religions become one religion and racial and religious bias pass away. It is a day in which the oneness of humankind shall uplift its standard and international peace like the true morning flood the world with its light. Therefore we offer supplications to God, asking him to dispel these gloomy clouds and uproot these imitations in order that the East and West may become radiant with love and unity; that the nations of the world shall embrace each other and the ideal spiritual brotherhood illumine the world like the glorious sun of the high heavens.” (Abdu’l-Baha, Foundations of World Unity, p. 16)

I am learning, thinking, praying in searching for the best way
to share my happiness attainment to all people.
I have found the Messenger of God, the Promised One
of all religions, Who gives all details about the existence
of One God, One Religon, One Mankind and showing how
to establish the Kingdom of God on earth.
I have wrtitten thousands of posts to recount my experience
in this service. All my efforts fail to describe even one ray of
this Sun of Truth. So I call people to make they own search
and also show their precious experiences.
The discovery makes me happy; living the life makes me
happy; cooperation with other devoted servants of God makes
me happy, and my happiness is increasing every day in seeing
more viewers, more collaborators, more helpers. And I cherishly
wish that the world will soon become Paradise as ordained by the
Omnipotent God, Who allows us to thankfully contribute our
insignificant parts in this Divine Plan for millennia to come.

Abdu’l-Baha says:

 

“The Báb made a Covenant concerning the Blessed Beauty of Bahá’u’lláh and gave the glad-tidings of His coming for the Blessed Beauty was the One promised by His Holiness the Báb. Bahá’u’lláh made a covenant concerning a promised One who will become manifest after one thousand or thousands of years. He likewise, with His Supreme Pen, entered into a great Covenant and Testament with all the Bahá’ís whereby they were all commanded to follow the Center of the Covenant after His departure, and turn not away even to a hair’s breadth from obeying Him.”

Religion is the most exquisite and most confusing subject.
It is really hard to make an other person to understand religion,
and more difficult is why that one among millions of religious
congregations.
It is really hard to find two persons who fully agree on a religious
subject. So hard that many people suggest to end all discussions
and consider it as absolutely a personal matter. I fully disagree with
this tendency.
Religion is not a personal matter beyond human grasp. It is a
manifest education of life and death for the whole human race
from the earliest days in history, until, perhaps the day when all
human beings enter the Kingdom of God. None will be left wandering
in the wilderness of purposeless or hopeless search.
The revealed Books of God have shown clearly the Existence of
One God, One Religion and One Mankind. And this study should be
encouraged most urgently, most patiently and most freely. There should
be no coercion, no proselitization, no imposition. All people need to get
assitance, encouragement and support to reach the most blissful
state in knowing and loving God.

The Bab prays:

 

“Verily I have desired naught else but Thy love and the love of those who love Thee. How can I extol the effulgent beauty of Thy Lordship, conscious as I am of my nothingness before the habitation of Thy glory? Yet the sorrow of solitude and loneliness prompteth me to invoke Thee through this prayer, perchance Thy trusted servants may become aware of my lamentations, may supplicate unto Thee on my behalf, and Thou wouldst graciously answer their prayers as a token of Thy grace and Thy favour.”

WOULD WORLD BE BETTER IF WOMEN RULED?

If women ‘Ruled* the world would the world be a better place…?

Year of Dragon, Day 176

Women are only half of the world, and the bird
of humanity cannot soar high with only one wing.
See how bad it was with the world ruled by only
the other male half!
Today is the Age of human maturity; we need wiser
cooperation, consultation, education to solve
the global problems and family delicate matters.
Creatures of all kinds can work together harmoniously,
we intelligent beings must show our greatest wisdom
in the whole universe.
Luckily, with the Internet, we can see how human beings
cooperate without gender discrimination. We are
discussing things as completely free and equal individuals.
Yes, our world is clearly becoming a better world
where two wings of the human race beat harmoniously
to soar up to higher and higher summits.

Abdul-Baha says:

” Fighting, and the employment of force, even for the right cause, will not bring about good results. The oppressed who have right on their side, must not take that right by force; the evil would continue. Hearts must be changed. The rich must wish to give! Life in man should be like a flame, warming all with whom it comes into contact. The spiritually awakened are like to bright torches in the sight of God, they give light and comfort to their fellows.”

Body language like smile.
Heart language like love.
Silence like contemplating beauty.
I like most the language of silence:
now I am contemplating the beauty of your question
and I answer you in complete silence.
These three types of languages are bringing
the whole human race into a happy folk
of lovers and artists.
Yes, I am now quite happy, sitting at a silent
corner of my room, contempleting a broad
world of love, peace and magnificence.

Abdu’l-Baha says:

 

“A universal language shall be adopted and taught in the schools and academies of the world. A committee appointed by the national bodies shall select a suitable language to be used as a means of international communication.

Every one will need but two languages, his national tongue and the universal language. All will acquire the international language.”

WILL JESUS REDEEM NONBELIEVERS?

Will Jesus redeem nonbelievers?

Yes, not only non-believers, but also persecutors.
In reality, consciously or unconciously, we all – believers,
non-believers and persecutors – are sinners.
Believers, like Simon, are redeemed.
Non-believers, like Matthews, are redeemed.
Persecutors, like Saul, are redeemed.
Not only Jesus Himself, but His believers are
always actively looking  for lost sheeps.
His salvation is not preserved for only lambs
in the flock, but for the whole human race
in all conditions and circumstances.
He does not save human beings through
mysterious miracles, but through daily
activities in accordance to His Will.
Let us all turn to Him, not in limited churches,
burt out in the large world, by translating His
Teachings in to actions for the benefits of all mankind.

Abdu’l-Baha says:

 

“Certain religious teachers, however, think only of their creeds. They believe a holy war can conquer the world. They reason thus: “All the other religious teachers are in error and I am obliged to chastise them and show them their mistakes for their own salvation.”

The belief of the friends of God is quite different. They believe that one must affiliate with all, love all humanity and seek ever to better its condition. God is one, the true shepherd of all creation. Let us be kind to every one in order to unify the world and spread affection abroad.”
