Diversity
Diversity of expression and creative give and take are essential aspects of Bahá’í community development. Without diversity, unity is impossibleonly uniformity can be the result. For this reason, individual exploration of the Bahá’í teachings is valued for its potential contribution to community discourse and advancement. Here, the Internet affords novel ways of fostering such investigation and learning. The individual search for knowledge and truth, however, cannot be allowed to become a source of disunity or disagreement among Bahá’ís or between Bahá’ís and those studying the Faith.

Quote of the Day
Jalal 8 Kamal 183 B.E.
Indeed, from this very hour until the eve of the Most Great Jubilee, each and every one of those enrolled in the Army of Light must seek no rest, must take no thought of self, must sacrifice to the uttermost, must allow nothing whatsoever to deflect him or her from meeting the pressing, the manifold, the paramount needs of this preeminent Crusade.
Shoghi Effendi – Citadel of Faith, p. 119
