Gita 26, 27, book of same name, purport by
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
"26. Some of them sacrifice the hearing process and the senses in the fire of the controlled mind, and others sacrifice the objects of the senses, such as sounds in the fire of sacrifice.
27. And some offer the work...
Arthra said :"It is considered disrespectful by Baha'is to simply post a picture of Baha'u'llah on the internet as there is often a lack of reverance and consideration. The only places where it is acceptable is in a Holy Place as on pilgrimage or say at a dedication of a House of Worship. "...

Here is some info, from the web, about John Carre:
JOHN CARRE'
Background:
Although he have been a Baha'i all of his life, during the last 42 years he and his family have been "unenrolled Baha'is". Served as engineer officer in the Merchant Marine during WWII, and right after the war he...
Those are good books, and that is what I am saying. The Seven Valleys and the Four Valleys; just as a note; Seven is significant with the mystical paths studies,note that seven are the number of charkras, and that, `four`, is also significant in that it realates to the first four charkras which...
Yes, that is correct, as to what I was explaining: we can become, 'god', with a small, 'g'.
Of course what I am saying is the same as what we have been taught by God right from the start: God is everything. We need answers here, not mumble jumble. Who is God? God is everything. This concept...
Everything is God, isn't that beautiful; God is everything.
Many people, with different beliefs beleive this. Hindus believe it, Jews believe it, Christians believe it, Moslems believe it, Bahais believe it.
HIndus believe God is everything because they are the ones who brought it. If you need...
What I mean is a deeper meaning.
This is how, 'baha', comes out in the abjab script: BHA'
This prophecy originates from the Koran. It is about three predicted personages to come, namely, Bab; being Mehdi, Bahaullah; being Esa, and the third letter, 'A', is known as, "the Alif of the Greatest...
Arthra is trying to prove something, that is why all the quotes were added, to prove something.
I think you will find this true that: no one is listening.
That why people have to search for themselves. Lots of people don't even progress though intellect, some are just devoted, some do...
Where did I get it?, it was right there!
Bab said he was, 'the Bab', then he said he was the Mehdi. It is not that bad Bruce, Bab, said, "I am, I AM, that was a very well known quote.
As I had added, for intrest, in another thread, the word, 'baha', has some other meanings as well.
What...
Oh, so Bruce,
So what does it mean when I say that everyone is a Bahai?
Does it mean that Bahais are separated by religion, i.e., christians, moslems, or does it mean that Bahais are together and all religions are a part of the Bahai revelation?
The Alif of the Greatest Name is the, 'A', in the word, 'baha'. Baha, were the spiritual names of both, Bab and Bahaullah.
Bab had said that there were three parts to that name. What he based his claim on was the prophecy about these three personages: Mehdi, Esa, Mohammad, to which there was...
What differentiates a Divine Bahai from a Bahai? That is the same as asking what differentiates human from human, and the answer is: nothing is separating us. God was for sure talking to all of us with all His prophets.
All Bahais are divine. All people are divine. Everything is divine...
As it were, the Godly tidings were not over with the arrival of Bab and Bahaullah's teachings. Of course some of the friends are not going to agree, and they have their own ideas about the Seventh Angel.
See, a person cannot say much about prophecy, I think you have it figured out already, eh.
I have also heard that, this, Most Great Peace, can happen without the Bahai Faith. This is what I mean by, openness, that is, if you empty your cup of knowlegde, as Bahaullah says to do, in, Tablet of the Seeker, you will not be so attatched to your dogmas, or your ideas of what God is teaching...
Bahaullah had passed away just before the turn of the century, and among disputes, his son, Abdul-baha, became the leader. Abdul-baha made a very important move, and journeyed across Europe and United States in the beginning of the century, causing the teachings to spread from there, to all...
Bahaullah had reached his seventh charkra, and realized he was a Son of God.
Bahaullah began to teach, and his teachings were the same as Bab, except that Bahaullah mellowed things out a bit. Bab's teachings were being raised in a very hostile environment, so Bahaullah, (he is the Twin...
The Bahai forum is different than other forums because you can be a, Bahai Christian, Bahai Jew, Bahai Moslem, etc, etc. So you shouldn't have any problems if you are from a different belief, you are quite welcome here.
Bab taught that all the religions have come from God. This idea was new...
Yes, universal, means everything.
God is everything. Ok, God made everything, but it depends on how we use it. It is like two sides of a coin. I don't think the people who worship this thing they call, satan, are following much in the way God wants them to. Satan, is maya. If I meet one of...
