"lighten and uplift
them, so that they may soar on the wings of the Divine verses"
-Baha'u'llah

I attended a Baha’i Winter School in the Southwest in 1964.
It was my very first experience being with a large group of
Baha’is. It impressed me enough to continue my search for
religious truth. Eventually, I embraced the Baha’i Faith. -

For
six short hours on Wednesday night
I witnessed a strange and unusual sight:
Different people from different places
Were not obsessed by their different races –
And no one there was segregated,
For by their Faith they were related.
While others proclaim that God is Dead,
They spoke of His Glory, and what He said –
The promise for man, and his ultimate fate –
While the rest of the world continued to hate.
They spoke of the Love and the Oneness of Man
While seeds of mistrust still darkened the land;
And from the shadows of despair in this dark,
They offered to me their Light and their Ark. |
