Human progress—spiritual, material, or social—would be impossible without reflection and contemplation. Bahá’u’lláh states: “The source of crafts, sciences and arts is the power of reflection.” For Bahá’is, this daily practice of spirituality leads to self-exploration and a consistent reflection on our own actions. Because the Bahá’i Faith has no clergy, and because Bahá’is believe in the independent investigation of truth and in individual responsibility for our own behavior, the development of a consistent, regular spiritual practice of self-reflection and moral inventory becomes even more important.
