Talk:Prejudice
From Bahaipedia
I think this page would benefit from a section that talks about specific steps and strategies for overcoming and eliminating prejudices based on the Writings. I don't have time to put it together at the moment, but here is a quote which might be added later, from Paris Talks:
- If five people meet together to seek for truth, they must begin by cutting themselves free from all their own special conditions and renouncing all preconceived ideas. In order to find truth we must give up our prejudices, our own small trivial notions; an open receptive mind is essential. If our chalice is full of self, there is no room in it for the water of life. The fact that we imagine ourselves to be right and everybody else wrong is the greatest of all obstacles in the path towards unity, and unity is necessary if we would reach truth, for truth is one.
There is also another quote by ‘Abdu’l-Bahá along the same lines as the one currently on this page, so we might use it instead: https://www.bahai.org/r/046321283 David (talk) 20:30, 21 December 2020 (PST)
