    Baha'i/Ananda Marga

    "BarefootGal9's assessment of Anandamurti in relation to Baha'u'llah is clearly hierarchical. " Shrug. What can I say? Here in upstate NY, I can very ocassionally see the Northern Lights -- a faint, foggy shimmer on the horizon. If this was my total experience of the Aurora, I would spend...

    Baha'i/Ananda Marga

    Pathless, Thank you for the links. I was not familiar with Anandamurti and his movement, and it is most interesting. I've read thru the philosophy, teachings & bio pages. It seems to do many admirable services, and assistance to the human race, either in it's spiritual needs, or material...

    A Topic for Interfaith Religious Forum Wanted.

    Vapour May I suggest something to do with the idea of a Divine Covenant -- all three faiths share this concept, but I have never seen an in depth, interfaith discussion of the concept. I think it could be a fascinating exploration -- which none of the three faiths could "own" more than any...

    Babism, Russia, and Islam

    Bab'i & Russian links Thank you Ocean, for the excellent text links. Brian, the relationship of the Bab'i Faith and Baha'i is comparable to the followers of John the Baptist to Christ's -- ie, His mission was a neccessary preparation for the One to follow immediately. He declared that His...
