What We Need To Know Most

“… we must not allow ourselves to forget the continuing, appalling burden of suffering under which millions of human beings are always groaning—a burden which they have borne for century upon century and which it is the mission of Bahá’u’lláh to lift at last. The principal cause of this suffering, which one can witness wherever one turns, is the corruption of human morals and the prevalence of prejudice, suspicion, hatred, untrustworthiness, selfishness and tyranny among men. It is not merely material well-being that people need. What they desperately need is to know how to live their lives—they need to know who they are, to what purpose they exist, and how they should act towards one another; and, once they know the answers to these questions they need to be helped to gradually apply these answers to everyday behavior. It is to the solution of this basic problem of mankind that the greater part of all our energy and resources should be directed.”

(Universal House of Justice message November 19, 1974)

  1. What I in actual fact care most in regard to is health
    matters. By myself, I sign up for catalogues oriented toward this subject matter, and I continue informed about the latest wellness studies.
    How is this important? I feel there’s no more essential emphasis for my energy.

    Moreover, this web log entry seems as if it’s well worth my time to read.
    I sift through thousands or more of blogs weekly.
    Truth be told, my backbone always hurts and I desire a fresh new hobby.
    lol Anyways, I think if almost everyone composed blogs about their niche in life, and
    did it clearly, we’d have a more interesting Cyberspace. http://souforum.com/rss
