Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Many Paths to the Baha'i Faith, How People of Different Faith Experiences Discover Fulfillment in the Baha'i Faith, author Nathan Thomas explores the process that many people go through when they investigate this new world religion. The book describes how many people from Jewish, Christian, Islamic, Hindu, Buddhist, Native Faiths, and even agnostic backgrounds perceive and experience the Baha'i Faith. It summarizes some of the elements and teachings that people from these backgrounds often find in common with Baha'is, as the Baha'i Faith teaches that all religions come from the same foundation. It then explores some of the teachings and beliefs of the Baha'i Faith that are attractive to people. From their work for peace, justice, and equality; to their beliefs in the essential unity of science and religion and the practical approach to spiritual development, many people find aspects of this faith that intrigue them and draw them towards it. This religion, founded by a man named Baha'u'llah in the mid-1800's, offers something tangible and inspiring to every single person on the planet. And so when people have an open mind in their spiritual search, they often discover gems hidden in its depths that appeal to them. Lastly, the book explores some of the common challenges that some people overcome as they journey towards accepting this new world faith as their own. These challenges can come in many forms including new interpretations of scripture and prophesy, realizing new truths that overturn their preconceived notions, and believing that they have the personal power to change their lives and accept something new. With the help of illustrative stories, quotations from the Baha'i Holy Writings, and a brisk and conversational style, Many Paths to the Baha'i Faith can help people from a variety of backgrounds explore the Baha'i Faith from different perspectives.

Download or read book The Bah written by Michael McMullen and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bahá'í Faith is one of the fastest growing, but least studied, of the world's religions. Adherents view themselves as united by a universal belief that transcends national boundaries. Michael McMullen examines how the Bahá'í develop and maintain this global identity. Taking the Bahá'í community in Atlanta, Georgia, as a case in point, his book is the first to comprehensively examine the tenets of this little-understood faith. McMullen notes that, to the Bahá'í, Buddha, Moses, Jesus, and Mohammed are all divinely sent teachers of 'the Truth', whose messages conform to the needs of their individual cultures and historical periods. But religion--which draws from the teaching of Bahá'u'lláh, a nineteenth-century Persian--encourages its members to think of themselves as global citizens. It also seeks to establish unity among its members through adherence to a Bahá'í worldview. By examining the Atlanta Bahá'í community, McMullen shows how this global identity is interpreted locally. He discusses such topics as: the organizational structure and authority relations in the Bahá'í "Administrative Order"; Bahá'í evangelicalism; and the social boundaries between Bahá'ís and the wider culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God Speaks Again is a comprehensive introduction to the Baha'i Faith. Members of the Baha'i religion believe that periodically throughout history, God has revealed Himself to humanity through Divine Messengers-among them Abraham, Zoroaster, Moses, Krishna, Buddha, Jesus, and Muhammad-each offering fresh spiritual teachings suited for the age in which they appear. Bowers quotes extensively from Baha'u'llah 's own writings, which Baha'is regard as the most recent Divine Revelation for humankind, providing a welcome glimpse into its power and majesty. In placing the life of Baha'u'llah at the center of the story, he reveals an authentically inspiring figure and the inseparable connection between a new religion and an extraordinary human being touched by His Creator.
