What Do Others Say?

This book opens a door to a new perspective on life. Instead of seeing chaos and confusion, you will discern beauty, harmony, and purpose. It sets before your eyes a magnificent and breathtaking view of God’s plan for you and for the world.  _Dr Yvonne Wozniak

This is a manual for the soul. It will help you cultivate your spiritual potential--manifest the beautiful image concealed in your soul. If you say, “I am so busy that I can read only one book in my life,” then let it be this one! It will inspire you to find time to read many others!  _Betty Cumberland



One God, Many Faiths;
One Garden, Many Flowers

This book along with its sequel—Heaven’s Most Glorious Gift—offers an in-depth study of Bahá’í teachings. It responds to many questions people ask about the Bahá’í Faith.

One God, Many Faiths; One Garden, Many Flowers is a bold experiment in teaching. It takes an entirely new approach to reaching the hearts and souls of the seekers. It is both a serious and a humorous book. Few people can read it and remain indifferent to Bahá’u’lláh.

Hard Cover, 290 pp
(4.75" × 7.5") $12.00

People have heard so many lies, they have learned to put up a wall between their souls and whatever they hear. We need a book that breaks the wall. One God is that type of book. It covers the widest range of emotions—from humor to warnings. It also appeals to reason on a scale you have not seen in an introductory book before. Little by little, it breaks down every known barrier people have placed between themselves and the truth.

You as a Bahá’í will find many new topics in this book and its sequel, topics that are not covered by other sources. For instance, you will find an answer to this question: “Why do some of the most wonderful people fail to become Bahá’ís?” Or “What is the difference between a religion and a cult?” Under the preceding question you will find 23 differences. In relation to every one of those differences, you will discover that the Bahá’í Faith stands out as the purest religion in the world today.

A unique feature of One God and its sequel is this: It emphasizes biblical proofs pointing to Bahá’u’lláh. Why involve the Bible in an introductory book? Because it is easier to build on a foundation that already exists. People’s loyalty to the Bible is that foundation. When we speak about Abraham, Noah, and Jesus, we elevate the Faith from the human plan to the divine plan, from the mind to the heart. Outside the biblical evidence, the best we can do is to motivate people to appreciate our teachings. The biblical evidence also introduces the question of accountability. In their hearts, the seekers know that if Bahá’u’lláh is indeed their divine Redeemer, they cannot ignore Him.

Even to those who have had a slight exposure to the Bible, it is best to show the connection between the Bahá’í Faith and their Faith. A Christian editor who read One God and its sequel indicated that she wished she could write a book like it in defense of her Faith!

Heaven’s Most Glorious Gift is a totally independent book, but follows the same approach used in One God, Many Faiths; One Garden, Many Flowers. When a seeker says, “I have finished both volumes” make sure you have a declaration card with you!


What Do Others Say?

It offers an interesting, entertaining, and thought provoking perspective not provided in any other Bahá’í introductory book...I was delighted to read all the humor in the book. This is an extremely important feature of the book that will leave a lasting and memorable impression on the reader.  _Bill Wieties, Auxiliary Board Member

Choosing Your Destiny

Choosing Your Destiny follows a rather intellectual-spiritual approach. It does not involve the Bible, as does One God. It is written for those who respond best to subtle persuasion, and who have no interest in the Bible. This book is especially useful for those who are searching for peace of mind, for a religion without prejudice and priest. It emphasizes the joy of knowing and loving God. It is written in a language that appeals to people such as the “New Agers.”

Hard Cover, 375 pp
(4.75" × 7.5") $12.00

One reason people fail to investigate the Bahá’í Faith is this: they have been taught to abandon their responsibilities and the power to choose. This illusion allows them to leave their spiritual destiny in the hands of religious leaders. Choosing Your Destiny undermines this destructive illusion.

A special feature of Choosing Your Destiny is this: a chapter at the end of the book presents the ways in which God motivates human beings to accept His new Messengers. The examples offered in that chapter will awaken the soul of many sincere seekers who have tried to postpone choosing their destiny.

A special chapter in this book shows how the author applies the Bahá’í principles to his profession.



What Do Others Say?

Indeed, chapters 10 through 12 were downright gripping, and I was reluctant to put them down. I am also in awe of the breadth of your knowledge that allows you to quote so extensively from such divergent sources. But the most personally intriguing part of your book comes from Chapter 2, where you talk of your own spiritual transformation from doubt into certainty.  _Thomas Rowe, Ph.D.

An Introductory Book in Persian

The Bahá’í Faith: The Celestial Message for Global Peace and Happiness. This is a rather detailed introductory book on the Bahá’í teachings and history. It introduces the Faith in Farsi language in a simple and inviting style.


We have placed this book on 12 CDs, each about 65 minutes. The voice is that of Mrs. Shokouh Rezaie. Before coming to the United States, she was an anchorwoman on national radio and television in Iran. Millions of Persians know her exquisite voice. Her voice is indeed inspirational—soft and gentle, yet penetrating. It touches and transforms the soul.

Several people told us that, while listening to these CDs, they could not hold back their tears. The unique style of the book combined with the spiritually captivating voice of Shokouh creates a music that uplifts your soul. You keep saying to yourself, “What a supreme honor to be Bahá’í...” “How could anyone who listens to such wonderful teachings and hears such celestial music fail to glorify Bahá’u’lláh?” We hope a day will come when these CDs will be played on Iranian radio to millions of people.

Please share the information about this book with your Persian Bahá’í friends.

If you know any English-speaking reader with an excellent voice, please let us know. We would like to record some material also in English.
