9 Baha’i Blog Studio Sessions Based on the Prayer “Blessed Is the Spot” by Baha’u’llah

October 24, 2021, in Articles > Music, by

One of the prayers of Baha’u’llah that I first memorized as a child begins with the words, “Blessed is the spot.” Over the years, we’ve shared several Baha’i Blog Studio Sessions based on this prayer that are in different languages and sung by Baha’is in different locations and in this post, we’d like to share them all in one list.

Here is the prayer by Baha’u’llah:

Blessed is the spot, and the house, and the place, and the city, and the heart, and the mountain, and the refuge, and the cave, and the valley, and the land, and the sea, and the island, and the meadow where mention of God hath been made, and His praise glorified.

So without further ado, here are nine Baha’i Blog Studio Sessions based on the “Blessed is the Spot” prayer:
