"O my God! O my God! Unite the hearts of Thy servants, and reveal to them Thy great purpose. May they follow Thy commandments and abide in Thy law. Help them, O God, in their endeavor, and grant them strength to serve Thee. O God! Leave them not to themselves, but guide their steps by the light of Thy knowledge, and cheer their hearts by Thy love. Verily, Thou art their Helper and their Lord."
Bahá’u’lláh2

The Bard's Hall Contest  (13+)
APRIL: Flash Fiction, 500 word limit.
#981150 by StephBee - House Targaryen

It's Friday, June 14, I think I've made the ten required blog entries for the "The Bard's Hall Contest"  blog contest. However, just to make sure I'll do another entry. About the only thing I want to do right now is finish my cheese and biscuit from my breakfast, drink a little more coffee, and just relax without worrying about anything. Therefore, I'm going to read the two articles by David Langness in in the series The Existence of the Human Soul  , complete this entry, and move on from there.


"Know, verily, that the soul is a sign of God, a heavenly gem whose reality the most learned of men hath failed to grasp, and whose mystery no mind, however acute, can ever hope to unravel."
Baha’u’llah34

I've always believed in the existence of the human soul. I've often wondered where the souls lives, and is it a part of my consciousness. I've never received satisfactory answers to either of these inquiries. I finally decided to just accept the existence of the human soul, knowing that eventually God would answer my inquiries, if I just kept praying, asking, and searching.

After reading both f We Have a Soul, Where Does it Live?   and Epigenetics Proves that We’re Not Just Physical Creatures  , I'm satisfied with the idea that my consciousness is not just a part of my brain, but goes beyond the physical. I have also discovered epigenetics, which I need to investigate more thoroughly for a better understanding.

One of the things I like about the articles and article series on BahaiTeachings.org   is that many of the authors take both a spiritual and scientific approach when writing the articles. This type of approach reflects the Baha'i concept of the fundamental harmony of science and religion.
