Ruhi study circles as explained by Winnie the Pooh
Just in case that last post didn’t tell you all that you needed to know about study circles, perhaps The Study Circle at Pooh Corner will help clear things up. Or… perhaps not:
It was then that Piglet had one of those special Moments. He imagined it was the same sort of moment that a great detective had when he was solving a very difficult case, or a scientist had when he was working out the answer to a very difficult sum. “You’re doing a Ruhi study circle, just like me and Pooh!” he said excitedly
“This is going to be a very productive group, I can tell,” said Eeyore. “They catch on very quickly.”
“Are you doing a Roo-hee too, Eeyore?” asked Pooh. “I thought you didn’t like expotitions very much.”
“It’s not an expotition, Pooh,” explained Kanga. “It’s a form of training. You go along to acquire knowledge, skills and insights. Rabbit is going to be tutoring us.”

You’ve got a great take on Pooh…….We just finished Book 4 on the life of Baha’u'llah, and now I’ve gone back to read ‘The Revelation of Baha’u'llah’ by Taherzadeh. I last read that about 20 years ago.

as roo ha said a few days ago…I don’t know how you find these things but welll done,this really tickles the uncovered bits of us Bahai’s (or me;) as well as giving some useful information…
maybe mr georgewesley does not cite you as it would be like stating the obvious… because this site has inspires so many of us (or me anyway).

Did you know that Winnie the Pooh is a devout Muslim?
