New Dimensions of Learning

1985

How are Bahá'ís to begin the move to the new world order of Bahá’u’lláh?  By what means are we to be involved the process to a new world order? We dwell in an old world order or culture rife with darkness, war, hatred and enmity. All around us we hear lamentations of poverty, the cries borne out of agony and misery; the weeping of the hopeless and the calls for succor. All these rise up to the very gates of heaven. We must keep our gaze upon the light and turn away from the darkness. Sweetness is better than poison. In our process of transformation the mysteries we ponder will be revealed. Happy is the soul who does not attach himself to this transient world and its temporary comforts. Divine education is changing the world and thus human behavior. The ways of learning applies to the Teachings. He talks about learning styles. The visually oriented person learns best through visuals; oral learners prefer auditory experiences; those who love motion will turn to kinesthetic approaches. Steven reviewed each of these and explained the differences between them.
