5.0 out of 5 stars Spiritual inspiration and guidance for any faith, November 7, 1999

By 

J. RANDALL DIGHTON ([e-mail]) (Sacramento area, California) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Baha'i Prayers: A Selection of Prayers (Paperback)

Before I found the Baha'i Faith, I had lived and explored may avenues of worship, Christian, Jewish, Yogic, and more. This book of divinely revealed prayers was among my first introductions to Baha'i, and in it I found a completeness, a unity of spiritual thought that brought together the inner essence of all faiths. Divided into esily searched sections (healing, unity, spiritual qualities, assistance) these gems of prose, each as powerful as the Lord's Prayer of Christendom, help the reader to approach the Divine Oneness of God in uplifting, inspiring, Holy Words. Recommended for anyone seeking a way to express love for our Creator.

5.0 out of 5 stars Baha'i Prayers are spiritual food for the soul, May 1, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Baha'i Prayers: A Selection of Prayers (Paperback)

Baha'is use prayers such as these daily in their journey through this world. Here, prayers are divided up by themes such as aid and assitance, dealing with tests and difficulties, marriage and family life, spiritual guidance, healing, praise and grattitude, and many more. These prayers set a specific tone of elegance and delicate thoughtfulness to daily prayer for anyone who longs for spiritual guidance and awareness in daily life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Baha'i Prayers a Real Assistance in Communicating with God, November 7, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Baha'i Prayers: A Selection of Prayers (Leather Bound)

This Prayer Book is ideal for anyone who wants to communicate with God and does not know how or what to say. The type of prayer needed is categorized by various topics, depending on the situation in which you desire help or need to communicate, i.e. spiritual qualities, morning, meetings, assistance, teaching, tests and difficulties, healing, death, marriage, expectant mothers, children, etc. This Prayer Book was my very first introduction to the Baha'i Faith. I had wished I had this book growing up as a child. The person praying is never lost for words. The power of these Writings revealed by the Prophets and Key Figures of the Baha'i Faith is for anyone, no matter what religious faith, or whether or not you are a member of any religious affiliation. There is no other Prayer Book as this one. Excellent for Christmas gifts, someone who has suffered a loss, children, youth, newly married couple, any adult, or just as a personal Guide. There is nothing comparable to this Baha'i Prayer Book, I don't believe.
