The Pen of Glory: Selected Works of Baha'u'llah

By Bahá'u'lláh

Book Overview

The Pen of Glory is a compilation taken from the Writings of Baha'u'llah, written in response to specific questions from people wishing to know more about the principles and teachings of the Baha'i Faith. Most interesting is that these people came from various religious backgrounds, which provides the reader with a broad understanding of the central tenets of the Baha'i Faith. In each response, Baha'u'llah answers the question of the seeker and then expands on various related spiritual themes. In doing so, Baha'u'llah has provided us with a collection of far-reaching significance that is surprisingly applicable to the questions of religious seekers today. The Tablets include Gems of Divine Mysteries, Tablet to Manikchi Sahib, Tablet to Mirza Abd'l-Fadl in response to questions of Manikchi Sahib, Tablet of the Seven Questions (Lawh-i-Haft Pursish), and two other tablets.

Questions for Divine Wisdom

Some thoughtful, and smart, people asked questions about how religion functions, and why we get the results (discord, persecution, denial) from a new message being delivered to humanity. Baha'u'llah answered these question, and then, on at least one occasion, elaborated on the answer when it wasn't understood, for people of very different backgrounds. In this book there is a level of compassion for the confused seeker that is warming and inspiring. Baha'u'llah understands and cherishes the questioners.
