Baha’i Justice

As the Establisher of the Baha’i Faith taught, there is far more to proclaiming and teaching the message of the Baha’i Faith that continues to occur long after one has been through the Firesides twice. Once that has been accomplished there are deepenings and personal and community research beyond measure which would certainly be greatly enhanced by the audio visual medium and this is well established by much practical experience by many teachers in the Cause to date.

As the number of educated young adults increases there will be a corresponding increase in the number of educated children raised under the Provisions of the Covenant in Baha’i households. Parents will eventually become the primary educators of their own children after as well as before the age of responsibility assisted by the supportive Baha’i community under the Provisions of the Covenant.

Soon the Firesides as taught by The Establisher of the Baha’i Faith will become the foundation of the public education curriculum as they include all the major disciplines from art to literature to history, science, math, linguistics and much more. Audio visual education tools will be used far more effectively in the Kingdom than they are today to increase learning in all these schools of thought from the Baha’i perspective. This is not to say that they won’t remain supplementary as that would naturally be more effective than to rely heavily upon them as an educational mainstay.

Dr Jensen, the Establisher of the Baha'i Faith stated 

that television and the internet were created for the 

purpose of proclaiming the Baha'i Revelation to the entire planet. 

Since there is no end to that we
could have truly awe inspiring broadcasts going
around the world and out into space for  the duration
of the Baha'i dispensation. There are however many individuals 

who see these two mediums as inherently 

worthless or even downright evil. I think what is too 

commonly done today is to see
the tools of modern technology as being evil in and
of themselves. Rather what should be done is, as the
prophecy states, beat the swords into plowshares by
simply transforming our values to the point where we
will not use these same tools for making war. If you
were to chop the sword up into shards of metal you
wouldn't have anything to plow the field with. It's
a process of heating, hammering, bending and cooling
the sword which transforms it into a useful tool of
agriculture, not simply destroying or discarding the
sword. This is what the Baha'i writings tell us is
the process of transforming satanic strength into
heavenly power and that does not imply destruction.
So to advocate the destruction of the wondrous tools
which the Revelation of  Baha'u'llah has directly
inspired the human mind to invent for a heavenly
purpose during these first two centuries of it's
dispensation would be irresponsible. Through
education in the
Baha'i Revelation, we will elevate our spiritual
development so it keeps pace with our technical
ingenuity and all invention will be utilized to
advance our spiritual civilization rather than to
destroy it. That's what will happen to the world
order of the beast as well. It will be transformed
into the world order of the Glory of God,
Baha'u'llah, with the transformation of the four
beast nations into the four living creatures. Like
the sword, this requires the application of fervent
heat (nuclear), hammering (meteor impact and
earthquake), bending (earth's shifting crust), and
the tempering or cooling process which would be the
spiritual change the  human race experiences as a
result of education before, during and after these
transformational catastrophes.

Interesting thing this “global warming” phenomenon.

Funny thing about the melting polar ice both north and south; it’s not melting from above, it’s melting from underneath. This is due to the many areas of greatly increased volcanic activity far beneath them in recent years/decades, undersea in the north and under the icecap in the south. Since Mt. St. Helens blew it’s stack there’s been a steadily increasing frequency and intensity of volcanic/tectonic activity worldwide right up to the present day, mostly undersea, which has been steadily warming the oceans worldwide. The warmer waters pool in certain geographic regions (mostly in shallow seas) which then produce the evaporation patterns and air currents that cause the increasing frequency of ever more powerful storms and erratic weather patterns. Oceanic currents are also altered confusing and threatening many species of marine wildlife with a corresponding effect upon non aquatic species as well due to the changes in overland air currents. This also causes drought and severe rainfall in other regions as part of the overall imbalance and these will remain and increase until tectonic/volcanic and thus climatological stability is restored. Another effect of this is the decrease of friction between the mantle and the crust of the earth as the mantle looses it’s viscosity which will make the crust more likely to slide around the molten earth beneath wildly when struck by a bolide of sufficient mass.

All of these eventualities have been prophesied of in great detail by more cultural traditions than I care to list and certainly more than I CAN list not to mention an increasing number of scientific minds (see Einstein, Hapgood, Velikovsky et. al.) inspired in every case ancient to modern, wholly by the prophecies of each Manifestation from Adam to Baha’u’llah whether consciously or otherwise. The elders of the Indian Nations have been saying that these things were coming for a very long time, since the time of Enoch’s travels throughout the Americas, ca. 3434 BCE. He’s the one who told them about it but that’s another part of the story.

What I know from the elders who spoke to me throughout my formative years (18-28 mostly) of what Enoch told their ancestors is that these changes would come about as a result of natural cycles that the earth itself passes through from time to time much as the human body and society goes through periods of growth, activity, rest, illness and health and other cycles as yet unnoticed. Where the earth is concerned, it, no more than our own bodies is a closed system so of course it is effected by the cycles of the sun and many other spacial, stellar and celestial factors. The wild card, so to speak, is the degree of human spiritual evolution at the time of each of these global cycles which for all life on the planet at the time will tend to either ease or intensify the conditions or symptoms that accompany these transitional periods. As their seers and prophets foresaw through their connection to Adam’s Revelation, the technological advancements coming their way via the advent of Baha’u’llah and the inventive inspiration born of His Revelation and industrialized by the “older white brother” would make these next transitions much more perilous if the people of the world failed to embrace the teachings of Baha’u’llah en mass while still carrying scientific invention to extremes. This is exactly what has happened, so the failure of the majority of humanity to embrace the Revelation of Baha’u’llah has exacerbated the inevitable transitional vicissitudes inherent in the closing of one age of six thousand years (Adamic) and the opening of another even greater age to last five hundred thousand years (Baha’i). This is made all the more difficult by our misuse of a wide variety of relatively recent technological inventions. This is why the Indian elders said this one would likely be more intense than all the others before by many magnitudes.

What we currently observe in the human social arena is the sad spectacle of the politicizing of these circumstances by a wide variety of subgroups within the global population for a correspondingly wide variety of motivations. Ball of confusion. Static. No invention, solution, plan, accord, resolution, dogma, tradition or “green” movement hatched from a mind or a collective of minds of men will be of even the slightest aid in this or any other crisis unless and until such minds and hearts turn directly to face and embrace the Revelation of Baha’u’llah. Then and only then will the people of the world collectively move toward the singular remedy for all the worlds ills both human (spiritual and other) and ecological.

A little over two years ago, I was able to meet Madeline Albright while she was visiting Aspen with her sister. At this meeting I was able to serve her the indictment which appears in a link on www.bupc.org

I had written the links to www.uhj.net and www.thekingofterror.com on the manilla envelope in bold marker. After drawing her attention to the website addresses  and her opening the envelope to look at the contents briefly, she stated that she was familiar with the websites and the BUPC as well, that she would definitely be reading the document and then thanked me very sincerely with a smile.

This meeting happened soon after her newly discovered family history from which she had learned that she was in fact Jewish. Prior to that she actually did not know what a large part of her true heritage was. Our meeting took place privately after a book signing in Aspen, Colorado for her book which was about that very subject of personal discovery.

Sometime later she made statements while being interviewed which have denoted a considerable broadening of her views on religion in general as well as a reference to the person who would solve the Israeli/Palestinian conflict needing to be “a Solomon”. While this can be written off as a simple, old adage pertaining to great wisdom, I’m not so inclined to make light of it. In my view, given the sequence of events here recounted and the historical and ongoing juxtaposition of the Baha’i Faith Under the Provisions of the Covenant to the people and circumstances related to the broader context of the mideast, Madeline Albright’s comments indicate that she has indeed spent some time reflecting upon the message which is contained on the websites of the BUPC and the indictment with which she was served on that day.

We can be fairly certain that she has in fact seen the Genealogy of the Manifestations (The Tree of Life) as well as many other enlightening pieces of information both before and after my meeting with her. The question which remains for me is when will one of the many globally public figures of whom there have been several throughout the last century, see The Light and publicly point to The Lamp? Of course the answer is exactly when and if God wills it.                                                                                                           

Baha’u’llah on justice:

“O Son of Spirit!
The best beloved of all things in My sight is Justice; turn not away therefrom if thou desirest Me, and neglect it not that I may confide in thee. By it’s aid thou shalt see with thine own eyes and not through the eyes of others, and shalt know of thine own knowledge and not through the knowledge of thy neighbor. Ponder this in thy heart; how it behoveth thee to be. Verily Justice is My gift to thee and the sign of My loving-kindness. Set it then before thine eyes.”

“He hath appeared with that Justice wherewith mankind hath been adorned, and yet the people are, for the most part, asleep.”

“Bestir yourselves, O people, in anticipation of the days of Divine justice, for the promised hour is now come.”

Abdu’l-Baha’ on justice:

“The canopy of existence resteth upon the pole of justice, and not of forgiveness, and the life of mankind dependeth on justice and not on forgiveness.”
