Book Synopsis
There are few things more fascinating than a good mystery, and probably no mystery more compelling than the transcendence of God - mysterium tremendum et fascinans - the Unknowable Creator of the universe. In this book, the author has selected nine of his favorites from unnumbered mysteries found in the history, teachings and reality of the Bahá'í Faith, God’s latest intervention in the affairs of humankind.
Who is Bahá'u'lláh, the Supreme Manifestation of God, “the royal Falcon on the arm of the Almighty,” the Voice in the Burning Bush, the “most precious Being ever to have drawn breath on this planet”? And 'Abdu'l-Bahá, whose very title is “The Mystery of God,” the Center of Bahá'u'lláh’s Covenant and perfect example of what human beings can strive to become? What is the relationship between Bahá'u'lláh and His Forerunner and Herald, the Báb?
These and other questions are presented and discussed in this annotated compilation. Bon Voyage!
