Fireside series: Lives of the Messengers

Dear friends,

The discussion evenings series at my home continues this Friday, 8 pm, with a discussion on the shared characteristics of the lives of all the Messengers of God, from Abraham onwards as well as Krishna and Buddha, exploring the causes of the opposition they faced, the spiritual ascendency which they gained over people, and their unity in the source of their revelation and mission. Specific details will also be mentioned with regard to the lives of the twin Messengers of the Bahá’í Faith, the Báb and Bahá’u’lláh, and Bahá’u’lláh’s Son, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá.

“Inasmuch as these Birds of the celestial Throne [i.e. the Messengers of God] are all sent down from the heaven of the Will of God, and as they all arise to proclaim His irresistible Faith, they, therefore, are regarded as one soul and the same person. For they all drink from the one Cup of the love of God, and all partake of the fruit of the same Tree of Oneness.” -Baha’u’llah

All are welcome!

Best wishes,

Nabil

Fireside series: Intro to the Baha’i Faith

Dear friends,

I will be hosting regular fortnightly, i.e. every two weeks, discussion evenings at my place on Fridays, 8 pm, followed by refreshments. These are open to all and are meant to provide a regular space to learn more about the teachings and principles of the Baha’i Faith and how they relate to current issues in the world. The format will be a short presentation on a topic followed by open discussion. The first one will be this Friday on a general introduction to the Faith.  Here is a list of future fireside topics which is subject to change. Let me know if you’d like to propose a topic or have a particular question(s).

Best wishes,

Nabil
