Terrorist attacks, devastating wars and religious conflicts, famine, global financial crisis and global warming afflict our planet. And “Though the world is encompassed with misery and distress, yet no man hath paused to reflect what the cause or source of that may be.” As the roots of all these problems are spiritual in nature, in this booklet we will pause to explore and reflect on some of the writings of the Bahá’í Faith in search of the causes of world turmoil and the actions needed for securing its peace.

Book excerpt: The times in which we live are characterized by two powerful processes: disintegration and integration. Each and every person has the possibility of contributing to the process of integration. Unfortunately, many remain spectators, either because they don't know what to do, or feel that due to the magnitude of the problems facing society, their efforts would have little effect. Bahá'u'lláh has revealed teachings that give us a clear vision of the future society characterized by unity, justice, and peace that we are called to construct. The Universal House of Justice gives concrete guidance on the most effective actions we can take at this moment, calling us to participate in a world-wide program of moral and spiritual education for different age groups - children, junior youth, youth and adults - offering materials and training for everyone interested in participating in this magnificent undertaking. Those who join the effort become part of a planetary network, receiving guidance and support in their efforts to contribute to a better world. The book integrates easily-understood explanations with relevant quotes from Shoghi Effendi and Messages from the Universal House of Justice.

The vast majority of the world citizens are living in an abject poverty, illiteracy, and misery. Extreme wealth and poverty is rampant in today's world community, which has been one of the major factors for international turmoil and conflicts. Baha'i Faith is an independent world religion, which is established in more than three hundred countries and territories throughout the five continents of the world. The Founder of the Baha'i Faith is Baha'u'llah (1817-1892). The principle teachings of Baha'i Faith is unity of mankind, elimination of prejudice, equality of men and women, universal education of children, and the establishment of the Most Great Peace on earth. This volume is the story of Baha'u'llah's Faith, His vision for today's and tomorrow's world, His prescription for bringing all nations and races together, and for elimination of prejudice, whether religious, racial, or national. This volume is a course for the study and self-assessment of the history and principle teachings of the Baha'i Faith.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing out of the teachings of the B_b, who introduced the idea of the coming of a great prophet (the one promised in the scriptures of all the world's major religions), the Bah_'' Faith was founded by Bah_'u'll_h, when in 1866 he publicly declared that he was the One the B_b prophesized. The 2nd edition of the Historical Dictionary of the Bah_'' Faith presents a general historical overview of both B_b' and Bah_'' religions, as well as a theological overview of the Bah_'' Faith, from their inception in the mid 19th century to the middle of 2005. It presents biographical details of the Founders and Central Figures along with numerous leaders and pioneers, most of the basic principles and precepts, as well as aspects of its organization and administration. Through the use of photographs, a list of acronyms, a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on nearly every aspect of the religion, and appendixes listing the genealogy of the Founders, statistical information, and lists of apostles, disciples, Hands of the Cause, Knights of Bah_'u'll_h as well as of more than 930 believers who have contributed to its growth and development, this book is a fundamental tool for finding information on all things related to the Bah_'' Faith.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on its origins at a seminar in Oslo organized by two of the editors, this book combines classic texts of Nordic ecophilosophy and the original contributions of those influenced by this tradition to present the view that critical realism is indeed a worthy intellectual tradition to carry forward and further develop the work of the founders of Nordic ecophilosophy. It was clear at the seminar that there was a promising convergence of interests and themes in the two approaches; while at the same time, within the Nordic ecophilosophical tradition, there was appreciation of the capacity of critical realism, with its provision of a robust philosophical ontology and generation of totalizing immanent critiques of Western philosophy, to provide an expansive and secure home for the development of ecophilosophical work generally. If there is a single overarching theme of critical realist philosophy, it surely must be that of the unity of theory and practice, which Bhaskar, following Hegel, has also called "seriousness". This makes the applicability, relevance and actionability of critical realism key considerations for critical realists. There can be no doubt that this concern was shared fully by the Nordic ecophilosophers; and this quality of "seriousness" is a striking feature of the Nordic contributions presented in this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Muhammad ‘Abduh (1849-1905) was one of the key thinkers and reformers of modern Islam who has influenced both liberal and fundamentalist Muslims today. ‘Abdul-Baha (1844-1921) was the son of Baha’ullah (1817-1892), the founder of the Baha’i Faith; a new religion which began as a messianic movement in Shii Islam, before it departed from Islam. Oliver Scharbrodt offers an innovative and radically new perspective on the lives of these two major religious reformers in 19th century Middle East by placing both figures into unfamiliar terrain. While one would classify ‘Abdul-Baha, leader of a messianic movement which claims to depart from Islam, as an exponent of heresy in Islam, ‘Abduh is perceived as an orthodox Sunni reformer. This book, however, argues against the assumption that both represent two extremely opposite expressions of Islamic religiosity. It shows that both were influenced by similar intellectual and religious traditions of Islam and that both participated in the same discussions on the reform of Islam in the 19th century. Islam and the Baha'i Faith provides new insights into the Islamic background of the Baha’i Faith and into ‘Abduh’s own association with so-called heretical movements in Islam.
