This is the ONly place we can make it. Check out www.bahai.com. First, we must make our own lives paradise. We can't change anyone but ourselves. I believe that each of our heads is a universe; and as we grow spiritually, our own universe grows in becoming paradise. The illusion is that we're all here together. In reality, we are each here alone. As our reality changes, the world changes. We can make paradise here by, as Deepak Chopra says--every day, when you wake up in the morning, be conscious of each person who crosses your path (the first one might be your mate, then you children, or your parents). Give to every one who crosses your path during the course of a day, a gift. Can't afford to? A gift can be a flower, a smile, a silent prayer. In passing a stranger on the street, that silent prayer, or smile could be the difference in that person going home to slit her/his throat, or deciding to live just one more day. Try it. By the end of a day of gift-giving, you will be so high you won't be able to go to sleep that night. We are the only ones who can change this world into the Kingdom Christ promised. Heart-to-heart. The world leaders haven't the foggiest. Never have. Only the Divine Educators from God have known how to do it. We need only do what they say, and we can, individually, live in Paradise, and eventually change the world to a paradise.

We cannot make this world into a Paradise now.I believe there is only going to be one more time that it will seem to be a Paradise but only for for a few years.But I won't be here when that time comes anyway so I don't worry about it much.I just embrace what is going on and accept the fact that the Paradise I will be in will be the perfect and eternal one.

FEW people believe that the earth will ever be a paradise. Many think that it will not continue to exist at all. According to the book The Sacred Earth, by Brian Leigh Molyneaux, this globe came into existence because of 'a great cosmic explosion' millions of years ago. And if man himself does not destroy the earth, many believe that it and the whole universe may eventually "collapse back into a fiery, imploding ball."

I think this is our task as human beings on the earth. We all carve for life after death, we do everything good here on earth because we want to be paid for and inherit the paradise. I think unless we can create paradise on this planet which has been given to us "as a talent to trade in and make profits" there will be no such things after death. If we cannot do something of what is available, how can we aspire for something which is beyond our reach.

I'm going the opposite direction and say that God needs to step in, and He will, I'm sure. He'll put an end to the evil from governments and the greedy and the ungodly. Then we'll have a chance at Paradise under His guidance.

Which do you want, Paradise or free will? You can't have both. I'd rather have free will and live in hell.
