Book Review: A Day At the lake Summary: 5 StarsI had had the Hidden Words book given to me by a friend. I had looked through it a few times although I never really took time to read it all that closely. Well about a month or so ago my parents took my best friend and I out to a lake with them and we just happened to take our little collection of Baha'i books along with us. It was a wonderful day! We found an abandoned dock and carried a little radio and a blanket out on it and read the entire book that day, while listening to classical music on the radio. It was so amazing. Right as we completed the book the sun was beginning to go down and beautiful white doves flew over head. Ever since that day this book has been a personal favorite of mine. Any time I am feeling down I can open it up and read a selection from it and instantly feel a little better. I recommend this book to anyone; Baha'i or not.... it is just a wonderful use of prayer and poetry combined .... and can uplift any spirit!!!!!
Book Review: The Essence of Life Summary: 5 StarsThe book is composed of only 180 or so short prose verses--yet somehow, Baha'u'llah has captured the essence of life through statements that appeal to the body, mind, and spirit. Some deal with man's physical reality, others are more mystical--in the sense of the greatest mystics of all time. It is a precious work whose value will soon be recognized not only for its religious content, but for its literary content and style as well.
Book Review: Crystalline clear truth in bite sized nuggets Summary: 5 StarsThe Hidden Words by Baha'u'llah condenses a life full of spiritual truth into an easy to handle collection of short pieces concerning all aspects of the the truth to our nature and our relationship with the one creator. I also reccomend the Baha'u'llah's "Seven Valleys and Four Valleys."
Book Review: Small and Beautiful... Summary: 5 StarsThe Hidden Words of Baha'u'llah is an ethical handbook of sublime beauty, containing 'that which hath descended from the realm of glory, uttered by the tongue of power and might, and revealed unto the Prophets of old.' The immaculate verses of Hidden Words can likened a loving parent, helping and protecting the reader, giving strength, and offering the open hand of guidance and perfect wisdom. A book that is both concise and complete.
