Baha’is believe in the power of prayer and you’ll find Baha’is and their friends, throughout the world, getting together to pray. This is often referred to as a ‘devotional gathering’ or ‘devotional meeting’, and they happen in diverse settings, whether in cities or villages.
In this short animation, Baha’i Blog presents a ‘Brief Introduction to the Baha’i Faith’.

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.
As a new Baha’i, I absolutely love your blog. I get so much spiritual nourishment from your words, music, and blogging, I just wanted to say thank you. The animation is really nicely done too. Great job.
Thank you so much Susannah for your kind and encouraging words! We’re so glad you’ve found it useful and thanks for taking the time to let us know! It means a lot to us. 🙂
Hi, Naysan,
Thank you so much for your contributions of your creative talents. In producing your videos do you ever consider the hearing impaired audience. I have deaf relatives and it would be great if there were videos on the Faith with them in mind.
Thanks again and have a great day.

Hi Joan, thanks for your message. Yes this is definitely something we’re keeping in mind. You can click on the little “cc” button found at the bottom right of the YouTube video in order to turn on or off closed captioning. Hope that helps. 🙂
Golly! So well done. I was just thinking that it would be nice to have a short app on my phone so that when in a short conversation with someone, on the train or waiting for a bus, I’d have a little something to show. I suppose I could save this on the YouTube app, but do you have another idea?

We would like to show this video (A brief introduction to the Bahai Faith) at our bicentennial celebration in an infinite-loop.
How should we go about it please.

Hi Ramzi! We’re delighted and honoured that you would like to use this video! I believe in order to show this presentation you’ll need to have an internet connection in order to access Baha’i Blog and this video (or you can access it from our YouTube channel with this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHpOy7vgqtI). Once you have either page open, if you right click on the video you can choose “loop” which will repeat the video continually. Thanks for asking, Ramzi!
