Soundbites from Farhang's talk at the Baha'i Center in Oslo today

Some highlights from the talk, which was about Farhang's experiences with using the Institute courses to promote the Faith's growth, in Spain.
The world of humanity is sick. The purpose of the Ruhi courses (http://is.gd/4UvJU) is to create healthy "cells" in this ailing "body". It is not about study, but about learning, through practice, to become able servants to our fellow men. We focus on man's spiritual reality. Begin by nurturing ourselves (reflect on the holy verses morning & evening), then nurture others by sharing with them the verses & prayers at opportune moments. Thereby the heart is connected to the heavenly Source (the Baha'i Scriptures).
"....the whole human race is encompassed with great, with incalculable afflictions... Incline your ears to the sweet melody of this Prisoner." http://is.gd/4UvUW
