    Peace

    O ye, the elected representatives of the people of every land, take ye counsel together, and let your concern be only for that which profiteth mankind and bettereth the condition thereof. Know ye that trials and tribulations have, from time immemorial, been the lot of the chosen ones of God and His beloved. Illumine their faces with the effulgent rays shed from the divine rays of Thy unity. ʻAbdu'l-Bahá says, “In this marvelous cycle, the earth will be transformed, and the world of humanity arrayed in tranquility and beauty..." “Only when the lamp of search, of earnest striving, of longing desire, of passionate devotion, of fervid love, of rapture, and ecstasy, is kindled within the seeker’s heart, and the breeze of His loving-kindness is wafted upon his soul, will the darkness of error be dispelled, the mists of doubts and misgivings be dissipated, and the lights of knowledge and certitude envelop his being. At that hour will the Mystic Herald, bearing the joyful tidings of the Spirit, shine forth from the City of God resplendent as the morn, and, through the trumpet-blast of knowledge, will awaken the heart, the soul, and the spirit from the slumber of heedlessness. Then will the manifold favors and outpouring grace of the holy and everlasting Spirit confer such new life upon the seeker that he will find himself endowed with a new eye, a new ear, a new heart, and a new mind. He will contemplate the manifest signs of the universe, and will penetrate the hidden mysteries of the soul. Gazing with the eye of God, he will perceive within every atom a door that leadeth him to the stations of absolute certitude. He will discover in all things[…]” Be kind to all around and serve one another. Pray always and so live your life that sorrow cannot touch you.    Sorrow not if in these days and on this earthly plane, things contrary to your wishes have been ordained and manifested by God, for days of blissful joy, of heavenly delight, are assuredly in store for Thee. Hence the unity of all mankind can in this day be achieved.

    The Feast of Ala: Luminosity

    The Baháʼí Feast of Loftiness refers to the 19-day fast (March 2–20) during the month of ‘Alá’ (Loftiness), representing a spiritual retreat to elevate the soul, detach from material desires, and rejuvenate spiritual forces. It is a period for meditation, prayer, and self-restraint before the new year (Naw-Rúz), focusing on humility and connecting with the divine.  Prayers: These are the days wherein Thou hast bidden all men to observe the fast, that through it, they may purify their souls and rid themselves of all attachment to anyone but Thee. All praise, O my God, be to Thee, who art the source of all glory and majesty, of greatness and honor, of sovereignty and dominion, of loftiness and grace, of awe and power. No deed have I done, O my God, to merit beholding Thy face. And I know of a certainty that were I to live as long as the world lasts, I would fail to accomplish any deed such as to deserve this favor. O Thou Who dealest equitably with all who are in heaven and on earth, and rulest over the kingdom of Thy creation and of Thy Revelation! I testify that every man of equity hath recognized his unfairness in the face of the revelation of the splendors of the Day-Star of Thy Justice, and the ablest of pens hath confessed its impotence before the movement of Thy most exalted Pen. The word of God which the Abhá Pen hath revealed and inscribed on the first leaf of the Most Exalted Paradise is this: Verily I say: The fear of God hath ever been a sure defense e and a safe stronghold for all the peoples of the world. I beseech Thee, O my God… to graciously aid me to do what Thy will hath desired, and Thy purpose hath manifested. Send down upon me, and upon them who are in my company, that which will enable us to soar into the heavens of Thy transcendent glory. In regard to his affairs, let him repeat nineteen times: “Thou seeest me, O my God, detached from all save Thee and cleaving unto Thee. Guide me, then, in all mine affairs unto that which profiteth me for the glory of Thy Cause and the loftiness of the station of Thy loved ones.”

    Might, Episode 2

    Central to the Baha’i teachings is knowing God almighty. The might of God may be understood as an all-encompassing, transcendent power, radiating through all the realms of existence. A power through which creation is sustained, guided and unified in His eternal will.

    Might, Episode 1

    In Baháʼí writings, "Might" (or Izzat) refers to divine spiritual power and strength, not just physical power, that is available to believers who are aligned with God's Will and the teachings of Baháʼu'lláh. This spiritual might enables individuals and communities to overcome challenges, build civilization, and achieve spiritual victories by drawing on the confirmations of the Holy Spirit and the power of God's Word.

    Names of God, Episode 2

    In the Baha’i faith, the names of God are considered qualities that describe aspects of God’s nature. All of creation reflects the attributes of God to some degree, and we humans are created to reflect these names. The names of God illumine our souls and refine the character of humankind. Welcome to Dawn Prayers. Today, we turn our hearts to the Names of God—each a jewel of His beauty, each a ray of His light. They whisper of His mercy, His justice, His love, His majesty. As we breathe these Names in prayer, may they awaken the divine qualities within us and draw us nearer to the One who is the Source of all being. We invite you to comment or make a request for a prayer.

    From Estrangement to Connection

    In this episode, we turn our hearts to the healing power of prayer as we reflect on the journey from estrangement to connection, from separation to unity. The Bahá’í writings remind us that the divisions among humanity are not permanent walls but passing shadows, and that the light of God’s love can draw us together as one family. Through prayer, we open the door to reconciliation, understanding, and the deeper bonds that unite all souls in the spirit of oneness.

    Names of God, Episode 1

    Welcome to Dawn Prayers. In this episode, we’ll turn our hearts to the many beautiful Names of God. Each Name is a window into His infinite attributes—like Compassionate, All-Knowing, Healer, Ever-Forgiving—reminders of how the divine presence touches every part of our lives. As we pray together, let us reflect on how these Names call us to embody love, mercy, and truth in our own actions, and draw nearer to the Source of all goodness.

    Respect

    In the Bahá’í Faith, every soul is seen as a noble creation of God, worthy of dignity, kindness, and fairness. Bahá’u’lláh reminds us that “the earth is but one country and mankind its citizens.” Prejudice of any kind is condemned, and unity in diversity is celebrated—not as passive tolerance, but as an active commitment to uplift others and build a just and harmonious world. In Anishinaabe wisdom, respect—Mnaadendimowin—extends beyond humanity, embracing the land, water, air, and all living beings. It teaches reciprocity, humility, and the wisdom of listening with patience and acting with care. The bison, a symbol of this interconnectedness, reminds us that to live respectfully is to walk in balance, honoring both what we receive and what we give. Today, as we offer these prayers, we reflect on respect as a sacred bridge between cultures and faiths, a call to see each other as one family and the whole earth as one home. “Graciously aid me to serve Thy cause… Grant me communion with Thee in my loneliness. Thou hast created humanity from the same stock, and all mankind are sheltered beneath Thy tabernacle.” May this morning’s prayers help us clothe ourselves not in silks, but in courtesy, compassion, and reverence for all creation.
