Mr. Hooper Dunbar speaks about living a spiritual life in this talk given in April 2018 in Costa Mesa, California (USA). Among many other things, he shares experiences and anecdotes of serving on the Universal House of Justice. He describes the election of the first House of Justice, the significance of the Baha’i Temple in Chile, how we can share the principles and teachings of the Baha’i Faith with others, the need to sacrifice our funds, our time and even our person when it comes to sharing the Baha’i Faith with others. He also talks about living a life of service to humanity and about life after death. 

Mr. Hooper C. Dunbar was a member of the Universal House of Justice, the governing body of the Baha’i International Community, from 1988-2010. Mr. Dunbar is the author of numerous literary works, and he is also an artist whose works have been exhibited at several prominent international venues.
