#ourstoryisone

by ed in A Faith for Today
The Baha’i International Community is now launching a global campaign, called #OurStoryIsOne, to honor the executed women and the long struggle for gender equality lived by women of all faiths and backgrounds in Iran for many decades and which continues to this day. The day of 18 June 2023 will mark 40 years since the Islamic Republic of Iran hanged 10 Baha’i women in a single night in a square in the city of Shiraz. [...]

From the Baha'i Writings

The first teaching of Bahá’u’lláh is the duty incumbent upon all to investigate reality. What does it mean to investigate reality? It means that man must forget all hearsay and examine truth himself, for he does not know whether statements he hears are in accordance with reality or not. Wherever he finds truth or reality, he must hold to it, forsaking, discarding all else; for outside of reality there is naught but superstition and imagination.

— Abdu’l-Baha
