To inspire

"Chant (or recite) the Words of God every morning and evening. The one who neglects this has not been faithful to the Covenant of God and His agreement, and he who turns away from it today is of those who have turned away from God. Fear God, O my people! Let not too much reading (of the Sacred Word) and actions by day or night make you proud. To chant but one verse with joy and gladness is better for you than reading all the Revelations of the Omnipotent God with carelessness. Chant the Tablets of God in such measure that ye be not overtaken with fatigue and depression. Burden not the soul so as to cause exhaustion and languour, but rather refresh it that thus it may soar on the Wings of Revelation to the Dawning-place of proofs. This brings you nearer to God, were ye of those who understand. (Bahá'u'lláh—Kitáb-i-Aqdas)

I intend to take time out every day to read and meditate on the Sacred. True to my nature, I am going to transform the material I read, making it an entry in this blog, to help me better assimilate it, and to share it with others.

"...To inspire them to realize more and more of their capacities for living meaningful lives. Because there certainly is meaning to life." (John Coltrane)

This is where I place myself when I am chanting, reading or meditating. See? There's a place on the bench for you too.
