abstract	The article by the late Ian Kluge engages with philosophical inquiries about the nature of reality, questioning the existence of different “worlds” such as the material, spiritual, and metaphysical. He discusses how Bahá’í teachings address these concepts and examine existence of God. Kluge further argues that human perception of reality is shaped by philosophical assumptions, and that the Bahá’í worldview inter alia considers empirical reason and spiritual insight. He also examines postmodern relativism and defends the idea that objective truth exists beyond individual subjectivity. The article may challenge readers to reflect on their perceptions of reality and consider a more integrated worldview that encompasses both physical and spiritual elements when reflecting on God’s existence and its implications on our lives.
