The Life of Bahá'u'lláh: A photographic narrative » : The photographs that follow give a glimpse into the extraordinary life of Bahá’u’lláh, known to the worldwide Bahá’í community as the latest “Manifestation of God.” They present His story in pictures: His birthplace, the cities of His exile, the cell in which He was confined for two years and His final resting place. Here, too, are examples of His handwriting, relics of His remarkable life, and photographs of the beautiful gardens in the Holy Land which His life inspired.

All Art is a gift of the Holy Spirit. When this light shines through the mind of a musician, it manifests itself in beautiful harmonies. Again, shining through the mind of a poet, it is seen in fine poetry and poetic prose. When the Light of the Sun of Truth inspires in the mind of a painter, he produces marvellous pictures. These gifts are fulfilling their highest purpose, when showing forth the praise of God.

`Abdu'l-Bahá -- Chosen Highway p. 186

The work of the Baha'i Faith is entirely supported by voluntary contributions from its members. Giving to the Baha'i fund is regarded as one of the priviledges of membership; the Faith does not accept outside contributions. Giving to the Baha'i fund is considered a spiritual duty and a matter of individual conscience, with no coercion or oversight from the Faith's elected institutions.

Month of Sulṭán / Sovereignty »

Our purpose in setting forth these truths hath been to demonstrate the sovereignty of Him Who is the King of kings. Be fair: Is this sovereignty which, through the utterance of one Word, hath manifested such pervading influence, ascendancy, and awful majesty, is this sovereignty superior, or is the worldly dominion of these kings ...-- Bahá’u’lláh »
