Universal Love
“All finite microcosms – the innumerable manifestations of the Supreme Entity – are entitled to that universal love with which It has bound each microcosm to Itself, entitled to the wave of that universal love, in which Its divine ocean of bliss is perennially flowing.”
-Shrii Shrii Ánandamurtijii
Message from Sectorial Secretary
Namaskár to all Márgiis brothers and sisters
It brings me immense joy and honour to invite to all of you for our upcoming Taipei Regional Conference 4- 6 April 2025 at Ánanda Suruci MU. This is a golden opportunity to come together as a spiritual family and nurture the values of our moral and spiritual life that unite us. The theme of this conference is “Universal Love”—a love that transcends boundaries and touches every heart. Let us come together to experience, express, and spread this true, unconditional love to the entire humanity. Through this conference, we will aspire to deepen our collective spirit of compassion and achieve greater harmony and understanding among ourselves for Bábá’s mission.
May Bábá bless all of us abundantly.
Looking forward to meeting you at the conference.
Thank you. Namaskar.
Yours In Him,
