Oh my geesh. I think you beat me on this post this page at least. Im doing well though. Thank you for asking. Hope you are doing well too.
"That does not mean they are right" is what causes wars. It may seem like a difference of opinion but when you are addressing world peace, "right" should be mutually agreed on. Therefore, you can be encouraged by your divine messangers but, unless they are bahai, you cannot use divine messangers towards a joint solution to world peace.
The new systen is an US attempt not a bahaullah onem
Same view of following and need to go by their authority rather than look to themselves as authority of our individual well-being. That is like if I were Catholic, I dont have the same peace than I would if I followed the House of Justice.
We can generalize but if we broke it up individually, I notice Bahai dodge the same question. Though generalizing does more harm than individualizing.
Nowadays I seen only humble priests. It depends.
WHAT? Wait. Youre generalizing. That does harm. So Vinayaka and I manipulate and control minds?
Humans avoid pain naturally spiritually, psychologially, ans physically. Peace and health is natural. Its about this peace that people want. Its about what we want as a whole in general and what we want morally or religiously.
Money, membership, and control are icing to a cake.
What??! This is what causes wars. Buddhism doesnt have a promised one. All Buddhas have the same message. What message does Maitreya would bring if not peace and end of suffering by following The Buddha and Dharma Not himself?
We ignore interpretations of our books unless they are constructive and not contradicting the nature of our teachings And practices.
So I ignored my own Dhamma?
Krishna isnt part of this. He is a thorn in all promised ones. Everyone else were humans.
This is why there are wars. What about the other party's opinion?
This is a guilt ultimatum statement. Yoj have passionate words but the expression and truth statements dont attract people who look for coraporation with people not a one person dicatorship.
One point is that about things like ultimatums especially by Divine Messengers. For instance Baha’u’llah issued ultimatums because there were injustices and oppressions being committed against the people. He questioned the opulence and wealth of kings whilst their subjects were taxed to the hilt and in many cases starved or were sold into slavery or the kings would fight wars to kill and conquer and rape and pillage.
Baha’u’llah stood against all forms of injustice and confronted them directly. He was never intimidated by a bully but deemed that injustice had to be faced head on not cowered down to.
If you ever get a chance to read some of these letters you’ll find His concern was for the people and the way they were being treated.
By confronting kings and leaders about their mistreatment of their own people, the consequences He paid was to be tortured, imprisoned and exiled for 40 years just for speaking out, for openly standing against cruel injustices against people.
He accepted to be put in chains so that His Voice would bring to attention a silent world suffering under the yoke of oppression.
If Baha’u’llah had not been a whistle blower and exposed these tyrants and given the world courage to stand up for human rights and justice, we may still very well today be living under some cruel despot denied our rights and freedoms.
He has proven Himself a True Friend of the oppressed and downtridden, the poor and victimized. He never remained silent despite constant torture and mistreatment and in chains so heavy He could not stand straight. One of the chains weighed about 112 pounds or 51 kilos.
And now He created a worldwide movement dedicated to universal principles that all belong to one human family and all are equal with regard to rights and freedoms.
I’m biased here of course, but what if Baha’u’llah had nor spoken out? Would we be enjoying the same rights and freedoms we do now! My biased mind says not on your life.
His was a Voice in my opinion was the One that gave hope, courage and inspiration for others to arise for a just and peaceful world and which will eventually result in a paradise in earth compared to now.
Now the world is bent on ridding itself of tyrants and dictators and moving towards governance by bodies of consultation as Baha’u’llah encouraged.
