| Title | Prayers and Meditations |
| Summary | "Prayers and Meditations" by Bahá'u'lláh is a collection of spiritual prayers and meditative reflections written during the mid-19th century. This work serves as an exploration of profound themes around faith, devotion, and divine connection, articulating the author's longing for closeness with God and the trials faced by both himself and his community. As the founder of the Bahá'í Faith, Bahá'u'lláh's personal experiences and beliefs are deeply embedded in these prayers. At the start of the book, the initial prayers express an ardent desire to connect with the divine and an acknowledgment of God's sovereignty. The author emphasizes the transformative power of God's presence, articulating feelings of longing, devotion, and humility amidst trials and adversities. Through rich imagery and powerful language, Bahá'u'lláh reflects on the struggles of those who seek to remain faithful amid oppression, invoking God's assistance and mercy while inspiring readers to maintain their faith in His grace. The opening sets a contemplative tone, inviting readers to engage in deep introspection and prayer. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
