Dear Mr Dunbar: Thank you for all of these sharings. These talks are a reminder and incentive to keep digging-deeper and deeper so our being and any service shines. Thank you. Suzanne🎈

"Cleanse yourself of all acquired knowledge..." this is the test, because our egos resist...you can't receive true guidance without true humility. Studying the Writings, meditating on them, and praying daily helps so much with getting to that state of humility. 💕

[@hoopercdunbar-talks4004]

Mr Dunbar would like to correct an item in his talk with reference to “rid oneself of acquired knowledge” for having left out the words “obscuring dust of acquired knowledge”. He asks his listeners indulgence for this lapse. He appreciates the related comments.

Wonderful talk, thanks for posting

[@abdullahyounessi9485]

I find it so curious that Bahaullah’s teachings is to bring about the Golden age and YET Bahaullah is also concerned about the One that will come after Him. So much mystery that we or at least I don’t understand

[@Unidad19]

Profundo. Gracias Sr. Dunbar

Thank you !

I found this talk rather interesting. I am not especially knowledgeable about the Bahai Faith. I would really appreciate knowing the relationship between them and Jesus Christ. From what Mr. Dunbar said, it seems as though Jesus is a back seat driver, so to speak, to Baha'u'llah. It also sounds like according to BF that Jesus isn't going to return in as significant of a capacity as the Bible says. Could someone please explain?

[@nyskestam-moolenaar683]

Báha'u'lláh means Glory of God, He is the Christ returned according to the Writings. 

[@DanielDeBenoit]

Negative thinking can indeed lead us astray from our spiritual path and reduce the intensity and quality of our faith. I speak from experience. Now I am drawing closer again to the divine, but recovering needs awareness and discipline.

[@abdullahyounessi9485]

Me too my friend . I am also recovering from negative thinking.

my first time hearing Mr Hooper, spiritual tattoo artist.

25:00 'if we did not have this hope in heaven, we would be the most miserable people in the world' - Paul

[@thewhiterabbituk]

boredom is a by-word for hopelessness.

[@Achrononmaster]

@14:00 yeah, but that is allegorical for heavens sake. When you "cleanse yourself of all acquired knowledge" that leaves a metaphorical mental vacuum. You will have to fill it immediately. The mind does not tolerate a vacuum. As soon as you ask a question your mind fills in the blank, even if it is a righteous, "I have no idea!"

[@Sheer-i-Zheeaan]

34:00 my understanding is that in this scenario our understanding of religion is probably wrong.

[@christophelopez1964]

not easy for us humans to believe it in 2024!

[@JamshidRowshan]

Yes. Only material.

[@Ajooze]

Jamshid, see? You’re always here first!

[@JamshidRowshan]

@Ajooze ejazeh shoma ro mikhaad? Na digeh.

[@Ajooze]

​@@JamshidRowshan Ajib ast. Why busy yourself with this, Jamshid jaan? You can choose to be a source of peace in your own life and in the lives of others. Didn't the Buddha say that "hate is like drinking a poison and expecting the other person to die"?

[@JamshidRowshan]

@Ajooze vaseh yeki dige mo'ezeh kon.

[@Ajooze]

@@JamshidRowshan Sorry, my Farsi isn't good enough for the more uncommon Arabic words. But it seems you might have meant "lecture", I'm assuming. Ghorban, why say if I ask you to choose love and compassion this is negative and a lecture? Your reaction to the world around you is in your hands. No one can compel you to act in any way. You should at least have compassion for yourself, aziz. You have no problem engaging on contentious matters, but when one person addresses the topic of love, peace, and compassion you cannot bear it? I believe in your higher nature; nearly any philosophy you ascribe to, it calls you to be at peace and show compassion! This is not a lecture, it's a conversation if you're willing to have it, ghorban. Don't flee something good and someone with kindness for you.

Religion is the reason behind all problems and God has nothing to do with religion 😮
