Ridvan celebrates Baha’u’llah’s time in 1863 in the garden of Ridvan in Baghdad when He publicly declared His station as a Manifestation of God. The Ridvan Festival is 12 days long and is also the time of year when Baha’is elect their governing bodies.
Baha’i Blog is thrilled to share this series of 12 talks collectively called “Drawing Nigh to Baha’u’llah” given at the Alaskan Baha’i Summer School in 1984 by Adib Taherzadeh.
Of his many legacies, Adib Taherzadeh’s scholarship and strength as a writer live on in his works, such as the four volumes of ‘The Revelation of Baha’u’llah’. You can read more about these invaluable books in this Baha’i Blog article: ‘The Revelation of Baha’u’llah’ Books by Adib Taherzadeh
A very special thanks to the National Spiritual Assembly of the Baha’is of Alaska (www.akbahai.org), and to Peaceful Pages for permission to republish these talks.
