The Universal Mind

Jamál (Beauty}, 18 Kamál (Perfection) 176 B.E. - Sunday, August 18, 2019

"This is the Ocean out of which all seas have proceeded, and with which every one of them will ultimately be united. From Him all the Suns have been generated, and unto Him they will all return. Through His potency the Trees of Divine Revelation have yielded their fruits, every one of which hath been sent down in the form of a Prophet, bearing a Message to God’s creatures in each of the worlds whose number God, alone, in His all-encompassing knowledge, can reckon."

Baha’u’llah12

The Universal Mind

The Universal Mind connects
all the Manifestations of Divinity,
expresses the love
of the Unknowable
and All-Knowing Creator
through the Mirrors
of the Almighty's attributes:
         through Abraham,
         Krishna,
         Buddha,
         Moses,
         Christ,
         Muhammad,
         the Bab,
         and Baha’u’llah.
