The
Baha'i Faith
The symbol above is commonly called "The
Ring Stone" symbol. It is a calligraphic
representation of the Allah-u-Abha (also known as "The
Greatest Name") and can be found inscribed on Baha'i
rings. Baha'i artist have used it as basis for some very
beautiful mandallas such as the two below.
These, and other Baha'i related graphics can be found by

I have been a Baha'i for over 20
years. What first attracted me to it was it's basic
principles. To be honest, this was an intellectual
attraction. It was not untill much later that the
spiritual/emotional side of the faith entered. It is my
opinion that some enter the faith through the intellect and
others through the emotions. Neither is better, but, I also
believe that eventually both must come into play in one's
life.
Among other things, I am the Baha'i Editor for a web site called Suite101 . Please stop by, I publish a new article on some aspect of the Baha'i Faith each week. There is also a place for discussion and questions.
One of the basic principles
of the Baha'i Faith is the Unity of Mankind. With this in
mind, Baha'is are active in many different groups and
organizations that are helping to bring about an end to
racism. One of these that is active in my area
is the "Institute For The Healing Of
Racism". Click on the doves to go to the main
"Institute For The Healing Of Racism" web
site.
Another link to a site that is
concerned with racial issues are:
The
Bahá'í Faith: Dawn of a New Day This site not only has "The
Vision of Race Unity" online, but has RealAudio presentation
of the video "The Power of Race Unity".
It is my hope that you enjoy not only this page, but many of the other Baha'i pages on the web. I hope that some of the following links will take you to places that you have not been before.
