The Baha'i Faith, Violence, and Non-Violence (Paperback): Robert H. Stockman The Baha'i Faith, Violence, and Non-Violence (Paperback)
Robert H. Stockman
R776 Discovery Miles 7 760 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Both violence and non-violence are important themes in the Baha'i Faith, but their relationship is not simple. The Baha'i sacred writings see violence in the world - not just against Baha'is, but physical and structural violence against everyone - as being a consequence of the immature state of human civilization. The Baha'i community itself has been nonviolent since its founding by Baha'u'llah in the mid nineteenth century and has developed various strategies for responding to persecution nonviolently. This Element explores how their scriptures provide a blueprint for building a new, more mature, culture and civilization on this planet where violence will be rare and nonviolence prevalent.

The Baha'i Faith: A Guide For The Perplexed (Paperback, First Tion): Robert H. Stockman The Baha'i Faith: A Guide For The Perplexed (Paperback, First Tion)
Robert H. Stockman
R1,174 Discovery Miles 11 740 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Founded by Baha'u'llah in Iran in the 19th century, the Baha'i Faith is one of the youngest of the world's major religions. Though it has over 5 million followers worldwide, it is still little understood outside of its own community. The Baha'i Faith: A Guide for the Perplexed explores the utopian vision of the Baha'i Faith including its principles for personal spiritual transformation and for the construction of spiritualized marriages, families, Baha'i communities, and, ultimately, a spiritual world civilization. Aimed at students seeking a thorough understanding of this increasingly studied religion, this book is the ideal companion to studying and understanding the Baha'i Faith, its teachings and the history of its development.
