Behold Me: Bahá'í Writings on Unity

Behold Me: Bahá'í Writings on Unity
(CMP249 HC)
This is the first truly comprehensive selection of Bahá'í writings on the subject of unity - a challenging but often ignored issue. It shows how unity can illuminate relationships between individuals, races and nations; how it clarifies the complementary nature of the world's moral, ethical and religious systems; how it resists social evils such as racial and ethnic prejudice; and how it is the very basis of peaceful and progressive development. The inspirational source of these writings is Bahá'u'lláh, presented here as the prophet of an emerging global civilization. His vision of a world at one with itself, where the unity, diversity and interdependence of all peoples is fully recognized, is today shared by an increasing number of followers. These teachings on unity are practised today by Bahá'ís in some 250 countries, but this book also considers their implications for unity in the wider community. The text emphasises the need for individual commitment to both the creation and maintenance of unity, which is seen as necessary for our personal growth, happiness and fulfilment. Unity, or the lack of it, affects all our lives and so, hopefully, this compilation will find a wide readership and form the basis of much group dialogue and consultation. It will be of interest to all those concerned with social justice, equality and the healing of society's divisions. To those who care about our common future, it offers a model for study which reinforces hope in the prospects for the human race.

Emergence: Dimensions of a New World Order

Emergence: Dimensions of a New World Order
(NWO361 SC)
Edited by Charles Lerche

This book adds a new dimension to the debate over our collective future. It reveals the emergence of a new model of world order, built on a practical plan of action which puts the individual at the centre of global transformation.

It is inspired by the teachings of Baha'u'llah, the Persian prophet and founder of the Baha'i Faith. In the mid-nineteenth century, Baha'u'llah foresaw the inadequacy of state sovereignty, and urged world leaders to compose their differences, reduce expenditure on arms, guarantee the rights of citizens, and commit themselves to collective security. He warned of the chaos and destruction which would follow if his counsels were neglected, but also outlined a plan for a new world order devoted to justice, equality, dignity, freedom and self-determination. For over a century Baha'is have been turning Baha'u'llah's vision into reality; their experience reinforces hope in the future of the human race.

Six specialists in conflict resolution, development, law, economics, history, and ecology present various dimensions of this unique world order model, and explore its implications for the radical transformation of our planet.

Life of Thomas Breakwell

Life of Thomas Breakwell
(BIO238 SC)
Rajwantee Lakhshman-Lepain

Translated from the French by Olive McKinlay.

Thomas Breakwell was described by 'Abdu'l-Bahá as a "lamp amid the angels of high Heaven", and by Shoghi Effendi as one of "three luminaries" (along with George Townshend and John Esslemont) shedding brilliant lustre on the annals of the British Bahá'í community. This biological sketch, combined with a meditation on Breakwell's spiritual station, will surely inspire us to arise, as he did, to champion the divine teachings.

To Dine with the Blameless Ethiopians

To Dine with the Blameless Ethiopians
(RCU875 SC)
by Kemba Saran Mazloomian

This is the inspiring story of how one young person's travels in Southern Africa as a Baha'i youth service volunteer became a journey of unexpected self-discovery. The author vividly conveys a sense of her own transformation, and how the challenge of taking the healing message of Baha'u'llah to a society divided by prejudice revealed to her the deeper meanings of the oneness of humanity. Kemba's engaging voice speaks to the reader as if to a close companion on her adventures. We see how the knowledge she acquired became a new source of strength and confirmation, and helped her redefine her identity as a woman, as an African-American, and as a Baha'i.

Toward the Most Great Justice: Elements of Justice in a New World Order

Toward the Most Great Justice: Elements of Justice in a New World Order
(NWO840 SC)
Edited by Charles O. Lerche

A new world order is coming into being, confronting commonly held assumptions about identities, loyalties, and our collective future as citizens of this ailing planet. Among these perplexing changes, the challenge looms large to preserve and extend justice when faced with contibuing unfair distribution of wealth, shameless exploitation of natural resources, inequitable relations among members of the international community, and the impotence of the great military powers to protect victims of war.

The nine contributors to this book put justice at the heart of the debate about the new world order: as a personal quality, in basic social relationships, in national life, as well as in the relations between states. Inspirational to all these authors is the figure of Baha'u'llah (1817-1892), who, over a hundred years ago, described how the 'great oppressions that have befallen the world are preparing it for the advent of the Most Great Justice', an essential precondition to universal, permanent and progressive peace. The contributing authors, specialists in a variety of disciplines, explore Baha'u'llah's treatment of justice as it applies to relations between the sexes; the restructing of the international economy along more equitable lines; human rights; and the problems of a global society.
