What did Bahá’u’lláh write to Pope Pius IX?
O Pope! Rend the veils asunder. He Who is the Lord ofLords is come overshadowed with clouds, and the decreehath been fulfilled by God, the Almighty, theUnrestrained…. He, verily, hath again come down fromHeaven even as He came down from it the first time. Bewarethat thou dispute not with Him even as the Phariseesdisputed with Him (Jesus) without a clear token or proof.On His right hand flow the living waters of grace, and onHis left the choice Wine of justice, whilst before Him marchthe angels of Paradise, bearing the banners of His signs.Beware lest any name debar thee from God, the Creator ofearth and heaven. Leave thou the world behind thee, andturn towards thy Lord, through Whom the whole earth hathbeen illumined…Arise in the name of thy Lord, the God ofMercy, amidst the peoples of the earth, and seize thou theCup of Life with the hands of confidence, and first drinkthou therefrom, and proffer it then to such as turn towards itamongst the peoples of all faiths….
Bahá’u’lláh, Proclamation of Bahá’u’lláh, p. 83

Nimrod was warned of the star that told of the coming of Abraham. The soothsayers warned Pharaoh of the star in the heavens that foretold the coming of Moses. The Magi informed Herod of the new star that guided them to the throne of the "spiritual king," Jesus. The same legend is told of Buddha, Zoroaster, Muhammad and Krishna. What were the signs in the heavens during the appearance of the Báb and Bahá'u'lláh? The holy Scriptures of all faiths had spoken of Twin-Revelations that would appear at the "time of the end." Now that the Báb and Bahá'u'lláh had appeared, fulfilling these prophecies, what were the signs in the heavens? Signs, not for one, but for two Messengers of God, Who would appear almost simultaneously? S...
Des bicentenaires qui mettent l’unité en évidence Partager cet article : CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts, publié le 1 er  juin 2017 – Alors que la communauté bahá’íe se prépare à célébrer le 200 e  anniversaire de la naissance de Bahá’u’lláh, l’école de Divinité de Harvard commémore également son bicentenaire. Cette confluence d’anniversaires remarquables a plus en commun que le simple chevauchement des dates. À la fin du 19 e  et pendant la première moitié du 20 e  siècle, un certain nombre d’éminents philosophes, artistes et écrivains américains associés à la foi bahá’íe et à l’université de Harvard ont été impliqués dans un discours dynamique et émergeant sur l’unité. ‘Abdu’l-Bahá visite Green Acre en 1912. (Photo du site centenary.bahai.us) C’était le sujet d’une récente présentation portant sur la manière dont le principe bahá’í de l’unité se reflète dans le développement de la communauté bahá’íe américaine.
