Abstract:
A synthesis of ʿAbdu’l-Bahá’s epistemology, exploring reason, revelation, science, and spirit; his fourfold criteria of knowledge; and the harmony of science and religion as a response to materialism and the crisis of meaning.
Notes:

Bahá'í Epistemology from the Perspective of Abdu'l-Bahá

Behrouz Sabet

2023

About: Baha'i epistemology should not be perceived as a static or rigid construct. Instead, it is in a perpetual state of dynamism and progression, akin to the growth of a fetus entering the world. This growth entails the enhancement of its internal qualities and capacities on one hand, and the expansion of its connections with the surrounding environment on the other.

The exploration of Baha'i epistemology through the lens of Abdul-Baha's perspective necessitates a contextual understanding within the broader vision and worldview of the Baha'i Faith, while also respecting the authenticity of its original texts.
