Baha’u’llah and the New Era

CHAPTER 12: RELIGION AND SCIENCE
25/28

Even now our loving memory--love is itself a prayer--supports and strengthens those delivered spirits upon their upward way.
The measure of agreement between this view, which is founded on careful scientific research, and that of the Baha'i teachings, is truly remarkable.
Unity of Mankind "Ye are all fruits of one tree, the leaves of one branch, the flowers of one garden." That is one of the most characteristic sayings of Baha'u'llah, and another is like it: "Glory is not his who loves his own country, but glory is his who loves his kind." Unity--unity of mankind, and of all created beings in God--is the main theme of His teaching.

Here again the harmony between true religion and science is evident.

With every advance in science the oneness of the universe and the interdependence of its parts has become more clearly evident.

The astronomer's domain is inseparably bound up with physicist's, and the physicist's with the chemist's, the chemist's with the biologist's, the biologist's with the psychologist's, and so on.

Every new discovery in one field of research throws new light on other fields.
