"The source of crafts, sciences and arts is the power of reflection. Make ye every effort that out of this ideal mine there may gleam forth such pearls of wisdom and utterance as will promote the well-being and harmony of all the kindreds of the earth. " -Baha'u'llah
It's interesting to think of the source of the sciences being the power of reflection. I feel like it could have two meanings. That we find a way to reflect the knowledge that God has given us, or that we must reflect in order to gain knowledge in the sciences (and crafts and arts, though I feel like that is a little more obvious).
Just a little thought for the evening...
