Country collection

This blog doesn't really get MANY visitors (one or two per day), but they come from spread out over the world. As up to today I've got a collection of 17 nationalities: Australia, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Faroe-Island, Finland, France, India, Israel, Malaysia, Moldova, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Surinam, United Kingdom, USA. If you want to read more about the Bahá'í faith in your own language you can see whether your country is on this list.

Filmstar?

Well no, I'm not (far from that). But I had the pleasure to feel like one for ten minutes when I was photographed by the local newspaper's photographer Carin Rudehill, for a new portrait to 'adorn' my articles about the Bahá'í Faith, which will be published once in two months.

'The earth is but one country....

... and mankind its citizens' is what Bahá'u'lláh wrote for more than a century ago. I took this quotation as the subject in my column in our local newspaper. Click here if you want to see the article (it's in Swedish).

The second Ruhi-meeting

Yesterday we had our second Ruhi-course meeting in our home. We studied the importance of honesty, which is the buildingstone of all other human virtues.

Science and religion

The discussion about who's right: science or religion, is continuing in our local morningpaper. Yesterday an input of mine was published in which I argued that science and religion go hand in hand. Both give wisdom though on different levels which do not contradict each other. If you understand Swedish you can read the whole article here.

Bahá'í Pilgrimage

My family is planning to go on Bahá'í Pilgrimage next summer. Our Holy Places ly in Haifa (the Shrine of the Báb) and 'Akká (Bahá'úlláhs Shrine), Israel. We have been queuing for five years! Reuters wrote an article about Bahá'í pilgrimage. If you'd like to read it in Swedish, you can do so here.
