Theosophical Hdqtrs Address-
O RESPECTED Assembly! O friends of Truth! The inherent nature of fire is to burn, the inherent nature of electricity is to give light, the inherent nature of the sun is to shine, and the inherent nature of the organic earth is the power of growth. (10:2)

There is no separation between a thing and its inherent qualities. (10:3)

It is the inherent nature of things on this earth to change, thus we see around us the change of the seasons. Every spring is followed by a summer and every autumn brings a winter - every day a night and every evening a morning. There is a sequence in all things. (10:4)

Thus when hatred and animosity, fighting, slaughtering, and great coldness of heart were governing this world, and darkness had overcome the nations, Baha'u'llah, like a bright star, rose from the horizon of Persia and shone with the great Light of Guidance, giving heavenly radiance and establishing the new Teaching. (10:5)

He declared the most human virtues; He manifested the Spiritual powers, and put them into practice in the world around Him. (10:6)
