The following lines by a Baha’i poet, Guy Murchie, aptly express my sentiments for the occasion: - "Have you ever wondered? Why each year you live Seems to pass faster than the year before? There's a law at work here Called Transcendence, Influencing time and space and consciousness Of self, For each year lived has to be a smaller portion Of one's experience to date. To the year-old baby a year is a lifetime, To the ten-year old a tenth as much, To the centenarian but one percent of his experience While people he knows appear, bloom and die Like flowers in the garden. The same is as true of space as time. The baby learns the inch and foot Before he knows the yard, Then, as his horizon expands, The mile, the acre ... the light year Progressing from the finite Towards the Infinite, you see. Yet as you gain the mile you do not lose the inch, Nor as you gain the year do you lose the minute or the hour, For finitude is a tool of learning. Learning a little before the big, The simple before the complex..." We must all unitedly move civilization, as we know it, away from materialism, violence and domination to a higher level--non-materialistic, just and peaceful. Of course, the road is stony and full of obstacles, but the journey is infinitely rewarding. Most sincerely, Dr. A. K.
