The Speakers Bureau has been established to aid in acquainting leaders of thought and prominent men and women on Cape Breton Island with the fundamental aims, the history, and the present status and achievements of the worldwide Baha'i community. The object of life to Baha’is revolves around one very high concept: to promote oneness; the oneness of God; the oneness of religion and the oneness of m
ankind. Our individual lives are bound up with the lives of all human beings. Our ultimate aim is to contribute to the building of a world civilization by applying the concepts of oneness provided by the teachings of our Founder, Baha’u’llah. The Blessed Beauty, Baha’u’llah saith: “Ye are all the fruits of one tree, the leaves of one branch.” Thus hath He likened this world of being to a single tree, and all its peoples to the leaves thereof, and the blossoms and fruits. It is needful for the bough to blossom, and leaf and fruit to flourish, and upon the interconnection of all parts of the world-tree, dependeth the flourishing of leaf and blossom, and the sweetness of the fruit."
