Leap Day, 2016

Month, Day: 172, 4th, Intercalary (Perfection)

We started this blog in 2008. So, this will be our third Leap Day. The Baha'i calendar did use an extra Intercalary day for this purpose (see New Year). In the western calendar, we add a day. In the U.S., these are years where there is a Presidential election.

It might be interesting to see what was going during each of those earlier times.

2008 Started early talking about energy, science religion, etc., for which we have a new Basis. Suggesting an operational focus. By the next Fast period, we had started to look at cycles and more. And, then Groups. 

2012 We did a post on the 28th.Too, the whole idea of yearly measures was getting stronger. Coupled with this was that we need to know about and to understand chords (see graph for an example).

03/25/2016 -- A change in the calendar will have days (including Naw Ruz, the Twin Festivals) adjusting. As well, we have a principal vector upon which to contemplate.

Beyond numbers

Gleanings, 84: He is a true believer in Divine unity who, far from confusing duality with oneness, refuseth to allow any notion of multiplicity to becloud his conception of the singleness of God, who will regard the Divine Being as One Who, by His very nature, transcendeth the limitations of numbers.

What is "the world"

Month, Day: 172, Power, Splendour (Justice)

Gleanings, CXXVIII: Know ye that by “the world” is meant your unawareness of Him Who is your Maker, and your absorption in aught else but Him. The “life to come,” on the other hand, signifieth the things that give you a safe approach to God, the All-Glorious, the Incomparable. Whatsoever deterreth you, in this Day, from loving God is nothing but the world. Flee it, that ye may be numbered with the blest. Should a man wish to adorn himself with the ornaments of the earth, to wear its apparels, or partake of the benefits it can bestow, no harm can befall him, if he alloweth nothing whatever to intervene between him and God, for God hath ordained every good thing, whether created in the heavens or in the earth, for such of His servants as truly believe in Him. Eat ye, O people, of the good things which God hath allowed you, and deprive not yourselves from His wondrous bounties. Render thanks and praise unto Him, and be of them that are truly thankful.
