Spread love everywhere you go: first of all in your own home.
Give love to your children, to a wife or husband, to a next-door neighbor.

This new Headquartes at HPC Houston faces the Kabah during prayers, but here in San Antonio, Texas, where I live, it is otherwise. It has been said that from now o­n any new khane will be made in the direction of the Kabah to keep our rituals and history alive.

Well, apparently you all have very good comments regarding this subject. I believe that o­nce you die the day of judgement doesn't arrive. That's because we are currently living through it.
