| abstract | "What are we to make of our world with its diverse religions and their endless competing claims to Ultimate Truth? There is a tremendous diversity of perspectives among religions, yet there are teachings within each religion that try to find unity within this diversity. Central to the Baha'i Faith is the teaching that unity in diversity should be a catalyst for greater fellowship among believers. Not in competition, but in a flowering of a new enlightenment founded on the principle of oneness; of God, religion, and humanity. In Roland Faber's exciting and profound exploration of this theme he offers new insights into Bahá'í thought by taking a deep dive into the Faith's Scriptures. He explores the mystical and philosophical dimensions of the Bahá'í Writings in dialogue with Daoist, Hindu, Buddhist, and Sufi teachings, along with a provocative essay that brings Bahá'í ideas into discourse with the work of early 20th-century American philosopher and mathematician Alfred North Whitehead." |
