Consumer Culture | [Elevated & Meaningful]

I had a thought about the way we live our lives here in the USA. I wanted to talk about the culture of consumerism and the attachment to material things. I thought this could open the way for further questioning and thinking about this topic so that we become aware to not get worse.

Check out my other videos on various topics having to do with important things I think we should be talking about and thinking about!

Proof that we have a SOUL | [Elevated & Meaningful]

I made this video with some friends like 2 weeks ago with some friends talking about whether we have a soul. The conversation revolved around many concepts that allude to the fact that we don’t know everything, and that science doesn’t really know what an atom looks like. That we place our faith in things unseen but we know that those things exist by the effects they produce.

Please if you liked this video write in the comment below your thoughts about this topic, do we have a soul? How can we tell if we have a soul? What effects do our souls produce that help us to know for sure we have a soul?

the need for more Meaningful Content | Baha’i Inspired | [Elevated & Meaningful]

We need to make more contents that have a purpose not only to inspire but to attract hearts to the love of God and to Baha’u’llah and to edify the souls of humankind and to arise and serve the best interest of their long lost faith. Humanity is on the urge of destroying itself because it has lost its identity and purpose, we need to combine the kind of video contents, music, and other forms of art to revitalise the truth of who we are and what we are here to do for 80 odd years.
Please if you watched this video and it has made you want to start making videos in this way, please contact me soon as possible and let me know, maybe we can work together!

almost Accompaniment | [Elevated & Meaningful]

This video is not representative of the totality of what accompaniment looks like, it’s just a few friends dedicated in their local neighbourhoods who have gathered to discuss what they have so far learned and how we can keep on learning and growing our communities. That’s why I didn’t allow a full discussion to be in this video, rather my video is to merely show that such conversations are taking place in this dark age of the world, that there are individuals who exist that are committed to building up a new “Divine Civilization” as envisioned by Baha’u’llah (The Blessed Beauty).

Baha’u’llah: Letter to Napoleon III & Queen Victoria | [Elevated & Meaningful]

I will talk about 2 of the Kings and Queen of His time, namely, Napoleon III and Queen Victoria.

You should note, that Baha’u’llah came to fulfil the prophecies of the past Religions such as the Return of Christ, and the Promised One, to lead humanity to all Truth.

So, it was imperative that Baha’u’llah wrote to kings and rulers of His time to inform them of the time they were living and the will of God for today.

Most of them took His message as heresy and lunatic.

i.e., Baha’u’llah said to Napoleon III that he needs to turn to the Will of God and Baha’u’llah said a lot of things about His station and His mission to bring about the Most Great Peace.

You know what Napoleon III responded to Baha’u’llah? He said, “If this man is God, I am two Gods.”

Shortly after in about 3 years or so, approximately, Napoleon’s kingdom fell

Beginning in 1867 in Adrianople and continuing later in ‘Akká, Bahá’u’lláh wrote to the kings and rulers of the world,

Read Baha’u’llah’s Summons of the Lord of Hosts where He writes to all of the Kings and Rulers of His time:

http://www.bahai.org/library/authoritative-texts/bahaullah/summons-lord-hosts/

Baha’u’llah wrote back to Napoleon III
“For what thou hast done, thy kingdom shall be thrown into confusion, and thine empire shall pass from thine hands, as a punishment for that which thou hast wrought. 21 Then wilt thou know how thou hast plainly erred. Commotions shall seize all the people in that land, unless thou arisest to help this Cause.”

Amazing Photos of Animals | [Elevated & Meaningful]

Woodland California is a pretty cool city, there is a historical feeling to it. Definitely, it has a heritage I have yet to learn about. But I guess it is a “City of Trees”. This evening I and some of my friends decided to go to the Art Walk and meet Lynda Goff. Check her website out and her artwork. Click here to see more: http://www.lyndagoffphotography.com/

The World Needs More… | [Elevated & Meaningful]

Some people think that the world is in great turmoil, others may think that the world is not that bad, and other’s may not give a care at all. This video is capturing some of the things people said that the world needs the most today. I do actually think that the world needs something, but I don’t want to share my thoughts, rather I will leave it up to you guys to figure out what you think the world needs today!

The California Aggie Interview | UC Davis | [Elevated & Meaningful]

In this video, you will get to watch a very interesting interview. The California Aggie found out about me from the Davis Enterprise article and “Amanda Cruz” the interviewer contacted me asking if I’d be willing to be on the UC Davis “The California Aggie” page, newspaper, blog, story, and etc. In other words, to be featured in the magazine. These experiences have been amazing, I am super thankful, super gratified, because I really never expected anything like this to happen. I am feeling that the general public is finding value in my efforts to raise public discussions to new levels and I am again super thankful! Lastly, these interviews, writers such as Elena Tom and Amanda Cruz, have really forced me to solidify my thinking and purpose in creating “Elevated & Meaningful”, I have been able to better articulate what the true purpose is, and of course this is an ongoing learning for me, so my channel may, in fact, evolve to something way beyond what I initially thought! For now, it makes sense…

 

Science & Religion in Harmony | Baha’i Principle | [Elevated & Meaningful]

Interviewing Sana Rezai about the harmony between science and religion. Both are two systems of knowledge given to humanity to utilize, in order to understand the physical reality, the social reality, and the spiritual reality. Through the instrumentality of these two knowledge systems, humanity is able to appreciate the purpose and direction of the world of humanity, and if the unity of the whole world is the primary objective, then we could undoubtedly achieve it with science and religion.
