abstract note	This book is a warm invitation for anyone wishing to explore prayers and sacred writings from the Bahá’í Faith. Alongside a brief introduction to the Faith and its core principles, it presents a collection of passages organized around themes such as unity; living a life of love, service, and good deeds; facing challenges; marriage and family; peace and justice; and the soul’s journey beyond this life. These devotional and reflective selections represent only a small glimpse of the expansive collection of Bahá’í scripture, intended to guide and spiritually-uplift the hearts and souls of all. Contains 257 selections from the Writings of Bahá’u’lláh, which span a period of almost four decades, concluding with His passing in 1892, and 241 passages from the Writings of His son and successor, 'Abdu’l-Bahá, including a few selections from His utterances, which illuminate important aspects of Bahá’u’lláh’s life and teachings. Within these pages, readers will find many of the passages with which they are already familiar from institute courses, often set within the context of the books and Tablets from which they are taken. Included as well are a number of newly translated excerpts published for the first time in this volume. Although representing but a small portion drawn from the vast ocean of Bahá’u’lláh’s Revelation, the volume provides an overview of Bahá’u’lláh’s teachings, along with extensive elucidations by 'Abdu’l-Bahá, on a wide range of themes including the relationship between God and humanity through His Manifestations, the mission of Bahá’u’lláh, the nature of His Covenant, the process of personal spiritual transformation, and teachings for social change and the raising of a just and peaceful global civilization.
