Today Baha’is everywhere will begin celebrating

Today Baha’is everywhere will begin celebrating the five Intercalary Days known as Ayyam-i-Ha – when the Baha’i world rejoices, gives thanks and prepares for the Baha’i Fast.⁠
.⁠
The phrase Ayyam-i-Ha literally means “the days of Ha” – and the Arabic letter Ha, equivalent to the English letter H, has several spiritual meanings, one of them symbolizing the essence of God. ⁠
.⁠
If you'd like to learn more about what these days mean to Baha'is then please check out the link in our bio. Happy Ayyam-i-Ha!⁠

During this time every year, just before the month

During this time every year, just before the month that precedes the coming of the vernal equinox, Baha’is observe four or five special days to recognize and commemorate the gladness, serenity and joy that God’s gift of true freedom can produce. ⁠⁠

As to spiritual happiness, this is the true basis

As to spiritual happiness, this is the true basis of the life of man because life is created for happiness, not for sorrow; for pleasure, not for grief. Happiness is life; sorrow is death. Spiritual happiness is life eternal. This is a light which is not followed by darkness. This is an honour which is not followed by shame. This is a life that is not followed by death. This is an existence that is not followed by annihilation. This great blessing and precious gift is obtained by man only through the guidance of God.
Spiritual happiness is light, while sorrow is darkness.
This happiness is glad-tidings, while sorrow is disappointment.
This happiness is the Kingdom while sorrow is the earthly world.
This happiness is life, while sorrow is non-existence.
This happiness is the fundamental basis from which man is created, worlds are originated, the contingent beings have existence and the world of God appears like unto the appearance of the sun at mid-day.
This happiness is but the love of God. - #AbdulBaha #bahai #spirituality #love #God (Star of the West, Volume 4, p. 163.)

How do we celebrate one another and live together

How do we celebrate one another and live together in harmony when we think we don’t even agree on the same God? We can accomplish this by coming together and sharing our human experiences — joy, sorrow, and everything in between — so that we can connect in the spiritual realm. One way I believe this happens is through recognizing interfaith unity. ⁠⁠

It is obvious that all created things are connecte

It is obvious that all created things are connected one to another by a linkage complete and perfect, even, for example, as are the members of the human body. Note how all the members and component parts of the human body are connected one to another. In the same way, all the members of this endless universe are linked one to another. The foot and the step, for example, are connected to the ear and the eye; the eye must look ahead before the step is taken. The ear must hear before the eye will carefully observe. And whatever member of the human body is deficient, produceth a deficiency in the other members.
Likewise, look into this endless universe: a universal power inevitably existeth, which encompasseth all, directing and regulating all the parts of this infinite creation; and were it not for this Director, this Co-ordinator, the universe would be flawed and deficient. It would be even as a madman; whereas ye can see that this endless creation carrieth out its functions in perfect order, every separate part of it performing its own task with complete reliability, nor is there any flaw to be found in all its workings. Thus it is clear that a Universal Power existeth, directing and regulating this infinite universe. Every rational mind can grasp this fact. - #AbdulBaha #bahai #universe #spirituality (Selections From the Writings of Abdu’l-Baha)

For some, the phrase “Black Lives Matter” is a declaration of exceptionalism. Could it be that affirming that “Black Lives Matter” is an important step towards healing?⁠⁠

Detachment does not consist in setting fire to one

Detachment does not consist in setting fire to one’s house, or becoming bankrupt or throwing one’s fortune out of the window, or even giving away all of one’s possessions. Detachment consists in refraining from letting our possessions possess us. – Abdu’l-Baha #bahai #detachment #spirituality (Divine Philosophy, p. 135.)
