    An interview with Unitarian Baha'i Bahamut19

    I do for both Baha'u'llah and the Bab. As I understand what a rishi is, which would be an enlightened individual, it would sound as though a rishi had gone through a journey similar to the Seven Valleys? Correct?

    An interview with Unitarian Baha'i Bahamut19

    I also note you didn't respond about the Tablet of the Branch. I am not a member of the Baha'i Faith. I withdrew membership several years ago. There were no sanctions upon me.

    An interview with Unitarian Baha'i Bahamut19

    As you believe the Vedas to be an ultimate source of truth (the Vedas should be studied by everyone), who would you say authored the Rig Veda, as one example? Would the Rig Veda and its author be considered infallible?

    An interview with Unitarian Baha'i Bahamut19

    You are welcome to share any writing of Baha'u'llah (or any other Manifestation of God) which describes "acquired infallibility." In the Kitab-i-Badi, Baha'u'llah discusses the station of Mirza Yayha. He descrives Yayha as a a governor appointed by the King. Once there is a new King, Yayha must...

    An interview with Unitarian Baha'i Bahamut19

    And you are no longer a member of the Bahai Faith, correct?

    An interview with Unitarian Baha'i Bahamut19

    What you described is a very common teaching amongst those who teach the Covenant that you believe in. You won't be creating any surprises. I suppose one of these writings would be the Tablet of the Branch? A few years into the ministry of Abdul-Baha, he started to teach every reference to the...

    An interview with Unitarian Baha'i Bahamut19

    This is actually quite condescending and deserves no response. My spiritual journey is very relevant to me, as is yours. The Seven Valleys by Baha'u'llah demonstrates the traits required to pass through the stages of spirit. Having an aura of superiority is not one of them. EDIT: Let me share...

    An interview with Unitarian Baha'i Bahamut19

    George, I suppose the reason the word Baha'i is added is to demonstrate the intention to follow the teachings of Baha'u'llah. I personally would get away from that word because by this point in time, using the word Baha'i is fairly bad branding and marketing. There aren't too many people who...

    An interview with Unitarian Baha'i Bahamut19

    I am in no position to know the full intentions of God, but I have theories. The main theory I have is the religion of God, to include prior to Baha'u'llah, was never meant to be a centralized institution ruled by a few. This has always lead to authoritarianism and fundamentalism, limiting the...

    An interview with Unitarian Baha'i Bahamut19

    Not that I am aware of. In the Kitab-i-Aqdas, Baha'u'llah says God is the Greater Infallibility. 47 The one who manifests the command is not to be associated with the Greater Infallibility. Indeed, he is the one who exercises his will in the realm of creation. God has exclusively destined this...

    An interview with Unitarian Baha'i Bahamut19

    Danieldemol: First, I do want to say I am not a member of the Unitarian Baha'i Faith, but I do understand their position and feel it is closer to what Baha'u'llah had intended when compared to the Administrative Order of the Baha'i International Community. In the Kitab-i-Ahd paragraph #9, God...
