Wake Up Everyone!!!

When I was young, I always have questions on religion, wondering why there are so many religion in this world, purpose of our life, what happen to us after we are death and so on.... & now I've understood most of it.

I know some people might stop reading it after the first sentences, but I hope you'll continue in reading it as it only take less than 5 minutes to clear all the misunderstood.

Do you know that Noah, Abraham, Krishna, Buddha, Zoroaster, Moses, Christ, Muhammad, The Bab, & Baha’u’llah are all the same?
They are the Prophets and Manifestations sent by God appearing in human physical forms with innate knowledge. As for God, there is only one, just like there’s only a sun in this universe. The sun appears every single day with a different name, which is Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,... till Sunday. Everyday it is the same sun that appear, that gives life to every living thing. These days symbolizes the many Messengers of God.

Why does God send different Manifestations at different age? (Ponder awhile…..)
Every era, the capacity of the human understanding is different. Prophets and Manifestations are sent by God depending on comprehending of human being during that period of time. The Words of God are revealed bit by bit. It is just like students, teachers and principle. Principle assigns a particular teacher to teach standard 1 students, standard 2 students and so on…. The teacher who teaches standard 1 students cannot use standard 2 syllables as the standard 1 students do not have the capacity to understand yet. All students have to undergo this process bit by bit until he or she is able to understand and independently find resources themselves.

God couldn’t reach us as He is so powerful, just like the sun. If He reaches us, we would probably be death by now. The only way He can reach us is through His Manifestations. Manifestations are just like a mirror which reflects the sun’s light to us in a physical human being.

Why God didn’t just reveal everything at once, instead of He sending different Manifestations to us in different time and places?
The reason was He wanted to test us whether we love Him. If we love Him, we will be able to recognize Him & His Manifestations no mather in what names and forms. Couples who are deeply in love will be able to recognize each other even though one of them has undergone plastic surgery or change their name.

Why human beings can’t recognized the returning of a Manifestation of God which is Baha’u’llah?
The first reason was of course the love of God was not that strong in every human being. They are busy themselves in accumulating wealth until they neglected the importance of developing their soul. The second reason was, human being has put a veil between them by judging that what they known are right without any investigation and understanding. This veil has deprived them from seeing the truth.

Developing our soul are important as to prepare ourselves for the next world, so that we’ll be in perfect form and this form is eternally. It was just like a foetus developing in the mother’s womb. If the foetus does not develop properly, the child might have deformalities. The choice is in our hands either to develop it or not.

There are two types of teaching brought by the Manifestations which are the spiritual and social. Spiritual teaching will always be the same in every Manifestation’s teaching, while the social teaching will be different. Example of spiritual teaching is why do we need to know God, the purpose of our life on earth, human virtues and deeds and so on…..
Social teaching is laws which are appropriate during a period of time and condition such as why Hindus cannot eat beef during Krishna period; Why Muslims cannot eat pork, compulsory for the girls to wear long sleeves, men can have four wives and so on during Muhammad period; & why priest and ulama needed during the time of Christ and Muhammad.

In Baha’u’llah’s time, all those laws are not needed anymore instead it has changed into the importance of unity, oneness of mankind, equality between men & women, equilibrium between science & religion and so on…..
Baha’u’llah said priest and ulama are not needed today as He wanted us to be independently investigating the truth ourselves as human are able to be independent already.

If we love God, we must accept His current Manifestation. Baha’u’llah’s teaching has the answers and remedies for the current world issues and to create oneness of mankind without any prejudices.

In the writing of God, He said that He will never ever abandon us alone but will continuosly guide us through His Manifestations from time to time. Now Christ & Muhammad have already returned in the form of Baha’u’llah & Baha’u’llah will also be returning again after another few thousands years later in different forms which I would not be able to see the magnificent of it. My great-great grandson will be able to see it.

So, wake up everyone, do not let veil, ignorance & wealth to block you from seeing & understanding the truth. Let us together heal the nation, so everyone can live in peace & equally. Our life here is just temporarily and we do not know when we’ll be called by the Almighty.

"The light hath shone on thee from the horizon of the sacred Mount and the spirit of enlightenment hath breathed in the Sinai of thy heart. Wherefore, free thyself from the veils of idle fancies and enter into My court, that thou mayest be fit for everlasting life and worthy to meet Me. Thus may death not come upon thee, neither weariness nor trouble."
