march 10th


March 10th

Wow I am astonished that today is my last full day. The end of pilgrimage is near however I am changed not the same person I used to be, in a good way. I will always remember this pilgrimage. Even if I am not in the holy land I shall be with God here or there… Everywhere!!! Today I visited the buildings on the ark. Such as the Universal house of Justice or the center or head of our religion, they manage money and assorted secretarial duties. The international teaching center creates plans to help us deepen ourselves as Bahais and they have a lecture hall for members of the universal house of Justice to address the peoples. The last building on the Ark is the institute of the study of the texts, so when people have questions about life or how religion pertains to a certain aspect of their life, they consult the institute and the institute will tell them where in the numerous tablets they can find the answer to their question. The institute also works on translating and retranslating and making sure that the translations of the text are as accurate as they can be. Later on I also visited the house of the Master or Abdul-baha. This house did not hold any impact for me it just felt like a pretty, and a big house.
