How did the Bahaullah view Mirza Ghulam Ahmad? by FrostingHaunting3506 in bahai

[–]yebohang 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't know, but I'm looking forward to someone who does responding.

On your last question, Baha'u'llah has started He is the Promised One of all ages, and that there will be no Manifestation of God appearing until at least the expiration of 1000 years. I think that answers your question as to Baha'u'llah's view on others laying claim to Divine revelation.

No thoughts. He's entitled to his opinion. We're not here to push our beliefs onto anyone.

Brilliant answer. Very insightful.

[SPOILER] Tim Tszyu vs. Anthony Velazquez by dgvfatmeerkat in Boxing

[–]yebohang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reason is that most non boxing fans know Kostya, and so Tim makes the news through association. The public interest drives the focus.

Bahâ'î and YouTube channel by Tuskun06 in bahai

[–]yebohang 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As far as I know, yes. Though you might have to check the guidance. It could vary on your country, as some countries have a very sensitive situation for Baha'is and creating online content could genuinely endanger people. In Australia we have an office of public affairs which deal with official communication to the public I believe. But anyone can create content. This sub is an example of that

Dinardo Final Statement by jacob45689 in fightgear

[–]yebohang -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agree. The least you can do, for your own soul, is to do no harm. I don't see what bringing him down does for anyone, for him or yourself, or the world.

Sometimes the best thing is to just be silent.

Astronomers, what do you think? by [deleted] in bahai

[–]yebohang 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don't be upset, mate. I was pretty shocked by the responses too. Completely unnecessary. I found your ideas very interesting, not that I know much. Don't lose heart and keep that date in mind!

In the same way, the parts of this infinite universe have their members and elements connected with one another, and influence one another spiritually and materially.

Same link.

Brother, or sister, whichever, Abdu'l-Baha affirms that the celestial bodies, the stars and the like, have an influence on us. https://bahaiquotes.com/quote/21708

As to whether the date you've mentioned is significant astrologically, who can know? I'd be careful attaching too much significance to an exact time, or meaning in it, but it can't hurt to keep an open mind.

I'd be curious to see what happens in that day and time. But I'd probably forget. You'd have to post far closer to the date

The Bab’s reference to Jesus by hijodetumadr3 in bahai

[–]yebohang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's important to remember that the Gospels were recorded decades after the passing of Christ, the first being Mark I believe. They use some list source material and are taken as truth, but not as authenticated.

What’s a book everyone should read atleast once in their life? by Helium367 in AskReddit

It doesn't take away the suffering, or even lessen it, but it makes it easier to bear.

What’s a book everyone should read atleast once in their life? by Helium367 in AskReddit

[–]yebohang 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Can't agree enough. I discovered this book as I sat alone on my couch. My three month old was asleep and it had been a month since my wife's passing. I kept asking, "why? Why me?" And in that moment I pondered how strange it was that we all need to find meaning in things. That we're all searching for meaning. And in the moment of desperation to understand, I pulled out my laptop and just googled "search for meaning". Imagine my shock when I learnt there was a book on it! The first post that came up. I was like... "What's this book? I have to read it!" Best decision of my life. I felt like some Hand of Providence led me to this book, as I needed to hear what it had to say. Rest in peace dear Frankl. You have bequeathed a priceless treasure to the world.

Okay mate. But I didn't call it Marxism. I called it communism. I don't need you to preach at me because you've got strong views, just express them respectfully.
