Panorama of the New Delhi House of Worship

The Emperor of Mankind

Currently the galaxy's spookiest paraplegic
Wow, that's incredible! Such beautiful architecture & landscaping! :hearteyes:

Are those prayer mats stored underneath the outside benches?

Okay, that was impressive. Absolutely exquisite design.
The song on the website, I swear I've heard it before. Like maybe my brain is just recognizing a song of worship using Indian instruments, a (probably) popular Indian/Pakistani/Punjabi (?) singer and Hindi because that's just what I grew up around. But it sounds really really familiar.

Thanks your post!

I haven't been to New Delhi but generally we don't use prayer mats that much in a House of Worship. Some Baha'is may use a prayer mat to recite their obligatory prayers at home but we don't use them in say congregational settings...

They do sound familiar, but that's probably because they are in Hindi lol
I recently met some Baha'is near me rather randomly the other day. They seemed rather polite.
