This blog has been designated as possible spam. If it is it wasn't done intentially. The
blog was established to demostreate the Baha'i Perspective of the Holy Spirit. The Holy
Spirit is spoken of in the Baha'i Faith as well as Christianity. I am trouble that a blog such as
this would be considered spam. The intention of thw author is to share information with
fellow Baha'is pertaining to the Holy Spirit. Baha'is believe God has successively revealed
Himself through Supreme Messengers known as Manifestations of His Almighty Self.
Zoroaster was one of these Manifestations of God. Baha'u'llah is God's Manifestation for
the Age we live in. Yasna 47 is the Holy Spirit Gatha. In Zoroastrianism Spenta Mainyu is
the Holy Spirit and Angra Mainyu the Destructive Spirit. It would be Angra Mainyu and
not Spenta Mainyu who would generate spam. Spam is disorderly motion and this is a
charcteristic of Angra Mainyu not Spenta Mainyu. Angra Mainyu is synoymous with
Ahriman. Baha'u'llah warns us about Ahrimans lurking in ambush. Spam posing as a
harmless blog and is a computer virus is an Ahriman lurking in Ambush. I appologize to
Google and viewers if this blog is causing problems. I have encountered computer
viruses and the protective program caught it. Luckily the computer belonged to
Tompkins Cortland Community College. I praise the blog following this one. Being a Baha'i
I have found blogs that don't support Baha'i Principles. Baha'is have been encouraged to
blog.
