In this marvelous quote, Baha’u’llah tells us that “generosity” and giving of oneself to others are attributes of God.  Baha’u’llah is speaking with the Voice of God in this quote, using the personal language of “attributes of Mine”.  The purpose of life, we are told, is to clothe ourselves increasingly- day by day- with the attributes of God. These are the  teachings and qualities that the Manifestations of God have taught and exemplified down through the centuries.  That is the pathway that secures our human development and ultimate success as people.

In this week’s Modern Perspectives talk, Steve Sarowitz will offer some reflections on a related theme- material wealth and our spiritual development.
