"Ye are the pearls of the Hidden Sea and the letters of the Treasured Book. Through your sublime word the Book of Names was expounded and the portals of blessings were opened wide before the inhabitants of earth and heaven. Through you the injunction “Be thou” was enforced, the Hidden Secret was divulged, and the choice Wine was unsealed.
Alas, alas! By reason of your sorrow, the inmates of the all-highest Paradise were overcome with grief and the denizens of the kingdom of names were moved to lament. At your suffering, trembling seized the inhabitants of the Verdant Isle on the shore of the Sea of Grandeur, causing the sighs of such as are wholly devoted to God to ascend and the tears of them that are nigh unto Him to rain down. Ye are the books of God and His scriptures, the epistles of God and His tablets. By virtue of your gladness the faces of all beings were wreathed in smiles, and by reason of your sorrow all things visible and invisible did wail aloud."
Thy name is my healing, O my God, and remembrance of Thee is my remedy. Nearness to Thee is my hope, and love for Thee is my companion. Thy mercy to me is my healing and my succor in both this world and the world to come. Thou, verily, art the All-Bountiful, the All-Knowing, the All-Wise.
Welcome to the Bahá'ís of Asheboro blog. The Bahá'í Community of Asheboro is in central North Carolina and was established in 1983 and is part of the Randolph/Davidson Bahá'í Cluster. Please learn more about the Bahá'í Faith by visiting http://www.bahai.us/. All are welcome to our regular study circle, discussion and devotional meetings. Please contact us if you have questions or are interested in attending: bahaiasheboro@gmail.com
Bahá’í teachings focus on unity
– the oneness of God,
the oneness of religion,
and the oneness of the human race.
A central belief is progressive revelation – that the Creator progressively reveals teachings for humanity through all the world's religions.
Some principles of the Bahá’í Faith are:
• the independent investigation of truth by each person,
• the elimination of extremes of wealth and poverty,
• a spiritual solution to economic problems,
• the unity of all peoples and the elimination of prejudice,
• the equality of women and men,
• the harmony of science and religion,
• universal education,
• the establishment of a universal auxiliary language.
