After the excellent second video, I came back to this one which is just as timely as before, in giving the true purpose of the institute process and our responsibilty facing the dire needs of our fellow citizens; well done !
I love it! I'm sharing this with my book 4 study circle, my community, my cluster (and they gave us the "fantastic" news that we are now an "A", and we all panicked), and anyone else who wants to see it! Who says Bahais don't have a sense of humor?! Great stuff!
i LOVE the noises that the guy makes while he's sorting out his seeker dilemma! My son and I are falling out as we watch this over and over. I'll never be able to watch Helen of Troy with the same solemnity again...
D'oh!!! That was funny!!! good job on the lip sync, you got most of it right! and it cracked me up at the end when the lip sync was so good, i actually believed he was saying "book 7"!! KAKAKKAKAKA..
I just adore the funny way you realized it... "that's sooooo outragious" i'll share it during next reflection meeting!! Thanks friends!! Waiting for more!
... and from now on, I'll keep my eyes peeled in case there is some weird wooden horse attending our study circle: might be full of blood-thirsty seekers! LOL
hahahahahahhahahaha! so funny, I loved it. I wish there will be more funny stuff in the future. Good job guys.I have recieved this link over and over and watched it over and over. can't get enough!
This is soooooooo good. Hilarious. This is what we want. Self Inititive, Be creative! Be creative. Thanks to whoever upload this movie.Very creative work on the voice over. Ha ha ha ha.....
You guys are HILARIOUS!!! Comic GENIUSES!!! This was soooooo freakin' funny!!!
I hope those of us who watch it leave with more than a good laugh... because essentially its your message that is so important. My husband and I have watched this over and over again. LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT!!
Nice work, But... I don't need these books - I just follow Baha-u-llah's command to read the writings myself. Compilations are always faulty and are often out of context. Get back to the source people!
hey everyone! I found out that a close friend of the producers of this cool clip wrote a book called Conscious Courtship. Check it out at grbooksDOTcom. Read.
My former Aux. Board member sent this to us and I've sent it to everyone I could think of here in the heart of the US. Keep on with the creative ways to keep us moving and shaking!
Very funny! Good job nhtello! In reaction to the reaction elicited by Inquisitor002's comments, I would like to say that "dissension and strife" are far far far more damaging than one user's commments about one video on Youtube. Being respectful and mindful of the big picture will do more to bring unity than making one user say "yeah you were right I shoudn't have said that" would. No?
I should say that I didn't mean to offend anyone in the least or even dullen the enthusiasm evinced. What I said was personal opinion, and as many people have rightfully indicated thank God there are no clergy in the Faith. At the same time I think it's advisable to consult the LSA or other administrative bodies when making and releasing videos over the internet (yes?/no?), lest non-Bahai's unfamiliar with Baha'i beliefs get an ill informed view of the Faith.
Inquisitor...take it easy. I am sure the intention of the producers was to inspire others with humour. Just laugh... or smile at least... just try.. Yess, here we go! I knew you could do it! And don't forget, laughter increases our immune system, and happiness is a good quality. Let's all be happy!! Unity! :-) Love you!
Creative, yes, but I don't know how wise it is to dub this pre-fighting scene with such dialogues and link it to quotes from the Writings in the comments below...
I agree with the previous comment: Thank God we don't have priests! But the lingo is getting so corporate and complicated that we may need some "Baha'i seminaries" in the near future just to train some other level "coordinators" to interpret all that stuff to "the masses". Whatever happen to teaching one-on-one about the "Three Onenesses"? Now that's just my personal opinion.
This video demonstrates well the following quotation from Shoghi Effendi:
"Upon these virtues and qualities ["high intelligence", "youthfulness", "unbounded initiative", and "enterprise" which "the nation [America] as a whole so conspicuously displays"]...must depend, to a very great extent, the ability of that [Baha'i] community to lay a firm foundation for the country's future role in ushering in the Golden Age of the Cause of Bahá'u'lláh." (Shoghi Effendi, Advent of Divine Justice, p. 20)
I don't know if this was made to be funny or inspiring, regardless, to me it degrades the station of the process in which Baha'is all over the world are engaged in, that is, the spreading of the Word and the consolidation of the masses into this Great and as yet unbeknownst Cause of ours. I hate to say this but I think we have to adopt a more mature and noble outlook on the process we are engaged in as Bahai's.
Dear Inquisitor! Thank God we dont have priests in the Baha'i Faith (hint hint...)... btw., God loves laughter! So, let go and just laugh! :-) Be happy!!
I think you have a point here Inquisitor002, and it would be good to see some more mature inspired adverts for the Ruhi process, but this video is really the latest in a YouTube genre of comedy adverts for the Ruhi books and can be seen in the light of the study circle's encouragement to embrace the arts. I think its great, as I stated already, but I would be very pleased to see the kind of video you are advocating too.
This is great. It makes a great point. The masses are waiting, and when entry by troops and mass conversion arrive, we have to be prepared to consolidate them. How else will we succeed in establishing the Baha'i World Commonwealth? :)
FYI--it looks like they removed the soundtrack because of copyright issues--too bad :-(
