The family stories are delightful! The Baha'i Faith is working wonders and testifying to a day when the World will be united under the banner of Baha'u'llah!
Hi, a wonderful inspiring talk, it made me forget the problems we are facing today. A very gifted speaker, thanks a lot, God always gives 🙏 us strength.
34:00 I thought it was Oxford, but the point is very well taken. Robert Henderson measures up to Jordan Peterson. I hoped for this and I continue to hope that Jordan Peterson will continue forward and to realize he is moving forward to the Faith. 1:43:00 Thank you, sir, for this vision. You have saved my life. And no you CAN sing.
I have thought the exact same thing about Dr. Peterson. Thought about writing him to see if he’s read about the Baha’i Faith, or if a Baha’i could join the Biblical round tables he hosts. I think he’d appreciate the rational basis that attracted and confirmed me as well, and he has a tremendous understanding about the purpose of religion in human life.
@50:30 is something I wish we spoke more about as Bahais! I do believe in the providential beginnings of America and we should be leading the way in religious freedom and amity. I’ve always felt that we will get to a one world view in time, but the design of how the United States works is a great blueprint. United under one flag and one nation but states with individual capacities and identities of their own. We cannot allow the Bahai concept to be perverted into some sort of elite global rule of tyranny. Sadly, America is on the downfall of religious and spiritual life, and it shows everywhere in society. I think that’s what Bahais should be focused on. People are starved for meaning and community.
In the mid 60s, I was caught by the Baha'i faith and a personal scientific quest. The science quest was inspired by Isaac Asimov who, in an anthology of science fact essays, first depicted, with some seriousness, a world powered by fully conserved energy. He then retracted the vision by presenting the second law of thermodynamics where energy can change form but not be created or destroyed except for thermal energy where convertability is only partial. This means that the universe will end in heat death as thermal stagnation overcomes energy diversity. However it is well established that gasses change in density with temperature because gas molecules knock each other apart with thermal energy expressed as kinetic energy. The gas molecules at a given temperature are in perpetual motion. Perpetual motion is usually rejected on sight. Apparently most people would rather have a shriveling universe than breakeven perpetual motion [I coined the term ]. Breakeven perpetual motion would power civilization indefinately without gain or loss. Ambient air, water, or ground, being warmer than absolute zero in temperature, contains a massive reserve of thermal energy. It is reliably available everywhere all the time with minor variations. Ambient thermal energy would be borrowed and converted into electricity. The loan appears as cooling at the source and electrcity for any use for the user. Use returns the ectrical energy as heat; it's use balances to zero when everything is accounted for. It is is more scientifically elegant for refrigerators to produce electricity than consuming it. Cell phones wouldn't die or need power cords or batteries or become hot. They would cool when transmitting radio signal power. Frozen food storage would be reliable and free or value positive. That means homes and markets would have independent power to preserve food. Vehicles wouldn't need fuel or fueling stops. Elevators would be very reliable with independent power. Water and sewage pumps may be placed anywhere. Nomads could raise their material supports item by item carefully and groups of people could modify their settlements with great technical flexibility. Zone refining would involve little net power. Reducing Bauxite to Aluminum, Rutile to Titanium, and Magnetite to Iron, would have a net cooling effect. With enough cheap power H2O and CO2 levels in the biosphere could be modified. There should be a unitary agency to look after our planetary concerns. In 1973 I filed for a patent, us3890161A, Diode Array, for a device which absorbs heat converting it to an equivelent amount of electrical energy via aggrgated rectified Johnson noise from a plurality of consistently aligned very small diodes. [This is not the patent abstract.] The patent was granted in 1975 and became public domain technology in 1992. I had a report of a working very low power prototype in ~ 1980 but naively lost it. It was made from a chip containing ~1400 gold pillars abutting N type GaAs for radio telescopes receiving 1-3 THz frequencies. They [ University of Virginia, Charlottesville ] could not align very small diodes well enough in 1980 to make ~1 um dia diodes individually so they made them in patches so they could find them. I found a lab that put conductive paste on the face of one of these patch chips to bring all the diodes in parallel and test it in an oil bath in a sealed test chamber. They went out of business but I thought they should keep the prototype because they had the test chamber and could make special arrangements. I lost contact with them and never received the prototype. U VA refused to sell me any more patch chips and stopped making them. I found a professional circuit builder who populated a printed circuit board with tweezer handled microwave diodes. This did not produce detectable electrical power in the test instruments tried. Here is a thought experiment device that hypothetically creates self powered thermal diversification. The thought experiment device is impractical but easy to visualize and check for mechanical workability. It has parts from Maxwell's demon, the chambers, and Feynmann's paddlewheels, ratchet wheel, and pawl device, the paddlewheels. Its parts are large enough to act as everyday mechanisms but small enough to work well with the nanometer scale thermal motions of gas molecules. Sketch made with keyboard characters: COLD ROOM ())--:WALL:-->> HOT ROOM Key ()) = Paddlewheel. -- = Axle. (Continuous from end to end) : : = Axle tunnel going through a wall. >> = Lumped friction element Please visualize two roome full of air separated by a very thin wall that allows the rooms to hold their heat independently with minor leakage through the wall. The wall is thin to delicately support billions of separate nanometer scale short axles running straight through loosely enough to rotate freely but not leak very much heat so the rooms can hold separate temperatures. On the left side, a very small paddlewheel is mounted at the left end of each axle. On the right side, lumped friction elements are mounted stationary in place on the wall, one for each axle, for the right end of each axle to run through. The lumped friction elements convert the mechanical rotation of their axle into heat. The lumped friction elements do not impart Brownian motion to their axle. Brownian motion (a nanometer scale effect) turns the paddlewheels at random speeds randomly clockwise or counterclockwise. This random rotation is turned into heat by the lumped friction elements. The committed, linked, and functional roles of the walls, paddlewheels, axles, and lumped friction elements in differnt places should systemically produce a divergence in the thermal energy in the two rooms without adding external energy. One practical embodyment of the concept, among many mainly consists of two electrodes closely face to face (~1 micrometer) in a vacuum wired to an external electrical load. The face of the [Emitter] electrode is covered with a uniform array of LaB6 tipped small diameter carbon nanotubes grown straight out. The face of the [Absorber] electrode is covered with small scale graphine flake char. [Rice U 2014] Thermal energy mobilized unattached electrons will tend to free themselves outward from the emitter tips and drift at ~1 million meters / second @ 25 millivolts (thermal electron energy @ 20 C) to the absorber which tends to collect them. A negative charge accumulates on the absorber. This repels oncoming electrons slowing their forward drift, cooling them. The absorber electrode charge is simultaneously the repelling cooling and the external electrical load voltage. The drift current and external wire route current are the same. The DC electrical power consumed by the electrical load depends on the load resistance. Thermal energy absorption always equals the electrical yield. Wire resistance is a practical loss not a true loss so lt is overcome by added thermary output. The extra cooling balances the heat given off by the wire loss. The performance of the device is expected to be modest in the beginning but improve rapidly. Even early devices are expected to last a long time. There is little place for obsolence if the first installed thermary works adequately. They will withstand being short circuited indefinately up to an electromigration limit. A revision of scientific understanding is too broad to patent. Science should be openly developed for civilization. Industry, government, comercial science, academia, finance, and the military are not configured to develop this easily. It needs crowdsource grants to develop proof of concept and initial recipe prototypes thought out by many independent groups usefully including nanotechnology experts. Please find people who will work this forward by any reputable means. I would be pleased to consult on this with everyone learning. I think fundamentally new as well as updated older products should be manufactured in AI operated / human managed cooperative conglomerates (cooperative internally and externally). Business details would be open public knowledge. Associated people should freely talk and move as negotiated. Semicustom products would be sold at honest accounting commodity prices. No wealth draining top commanders are needed. It may be partly capitalized by factoring, and the factorers may have parts of the conglomerate somewhat dedicated to the production of their preferred products. The conglomerate may operate with wide participation for the betterment of civilization. Edward Bellamay's utopian novel "Looking Backwards" depicted world wide flat distribution of consumer goods.

Every time I've heard Robert Henderson speak, it makes me happy to be human. 😇
What illuminating insights. So beautifully expressed. Thank you so kindly Dr. Henderson! ❤
How much I have needed this wonderful talk for my own growth. Thank You for sharing of yourself and your knowledge.
I learned so much from these talks.
Brilliant, thank you 🙏🙏
I could listen to him all day.
bc you are an idiot
Such lovely stories! Brilliant message!
I am so inspired, thank you for wonderful words of encouragement. From South Africa ❤❤❤
I got enchanted and mesmerized with this wonderful talk . Bless you.

I remember my family talking about Baha’u’llah being a “man of the station”…and picturing a beloved train conductor…😂
Adorable! Lol!
Really it's good talks
"They can learn to love each other, and love will make them wise...when they learn to love each other..." 🖤🤍❤💛
Thank you for this inspiring presentation.
What is the name of the books your grandma wrote, I would really like to read them
