“إِلهِي إِلهِي أَسْألُكَ بِبَحْرِ شِفائِكَ وَإِشْراقاتِ أَنْوارِ نَيِّرِ فَضْلِكَ وَبِالاسْمِ الَّذِيْ سَخَّرْتَ بِهِ عِبادَكَ وَبِنُفُوذِ كَلِمَتِكَ العُلْيا وَإقْتِدارِ قَلَمِكَ الأَعْلى وَبِرَحْمَتِكَ الَّتِيْ سَبَقَتْ مَنْ فِي الأَرْضِ وَالسَّمآءِ، أَنْ تُطَهِّرَنِي بِماءِ العَطآءِ مِنْ كُلِّ بَلآءٍ وَسَقَمٍ وَضَعْفٍ وَعَجْزٍ، أَيْ رَبِّ تَرَى السَّائِلَ قائِمًاً لَدى بابِ جُودِكَ وَالآمِلَ مُتَمَسِّكًاً بِحَبْلِ كَرَمِكَ، أَسْألُكَ أَنْ لا تُخَيِّبَهُ عَمَّا أَرادَ مِنْ بَحْرِ فَضْلِكَ وَشَمْسِ عِنايَتِك. إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ المُقْتَدِرُ عَلَى ما تَشآءُ لا إِلهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ الغَفُورُ الْكَرِيمُ.” حضرة بهاءالله

“O God, my God! I beg of Thee by the ocean of Thy healing, and by the splendors of the Daystar of Thy grace, and by Thy Name through which Thou didst subdue Thy servants, and by the pervasive power of Thy most exalted Word and the potency of Thy most august Pen, and by Thy mercy that hath preceded the creation of all who are in heaven and on earth, to purge me with the waters of Thy bounty from every affliction and disorder, and from all weakness and feebleness. Thou seest, O my Lord, Thy suppliant waiting at the door of Thy bounty, and him who hath set his hopes on Thee clinging to the cord of Thy generosity. Deny him not, I beseech Thee, the things he seeketh from the ocean of Thy grace and the Daystar of Thy loving-kindness.
Powerful art Thou to do what pleaseth Thee. There is none other God save Thee, the Ever-Forgiving, the Most Generous.” Baha’u’llah

The Bahá’i Trio – “My Providence”

O SON OF MAN! My calamity is My providence, outwardly it is fire and vengeance, but inwardly it is light and mercy. Hasten thereunto that thou mayest become an eternal light and an immortal spirit. This is My command unto thee, do thou observe it.

O SOHN DES MENSCHEN! Mein Trübsal ist meine Vorsehung. Äußerlich ist sie Feuer und Züchtigung, zuinnerst aber Licht und Gnade. Eile ihr entgegen, auf daß du ein ewiges Licht und ein unsterblicher Geist werdest. Dies ist mein Gebot an dich, beachte es!

Talking about Bicentenary of Baha’u’llah’s Birth | [Elevated & Meaningful]

Here I am with Bette a local Baha’i from Saint Cloud Minnesota. Bette is sharing what she feels is the significance of Baha’u’llah’s 200 year anniversary of His Birth, and some of His fundamental teachings.

Please share some comments down below, what you and your community is doing to prepare for the Bicentenary coming up soon!

Baha’u’llah’s 200th Birth and Recent Charlottesville Incident (2017)

Baha’is all over the world are about to celebrate one of the most auspicious days of their cherished Faith. October of 2017 signalizes the 200th year anniversary of the birth of the Founder of their precious Faith, Baha’u’llah. He announced, roughly 150 years ago, that the Divine-will for today is the oneness of humanity and unity of all religions, races and people. If the world’s religious leaders and kings, such as Pope Pius IXNapoleon III and Naser al-Din Shah, had listened to Baha’u’llah’s counsels He gave in scores upon scores of letters, then bigotry, racism and utter hatred among people today would have ceased to exist.
