Naysan is passionate about using the arts and media to explore the teachings of the Baha’i Faith. Back in 2011, Naysan started up the Baha’i Blog project, channeling his experiences in both media and technology companies to help create a hub for Baha’i-inspired content online.
I, Bahereh Khodadoost, a Baha’i for many years, absolutely loved listenning to these series of Talks given by Mr. Nader Saeidi; not only enlightening and informative, also it reassured me that I am not alone in my way of thinking all these years, 69 years! So thank you, thank you, & thank you♥♡ I hope the Baha’i Community to hear this call, & to open up, & I say this with absolute sincerity from the bottom of my heart.
