Resources for Institute Activities
The Bahá’í Faith is a worldwide religion, that at the most fundamental level, is inspired by the principle of the oneness of humankind. Bahá’ís around the world are dedicated to a process of community building that seeks to foster new patterns of life and social structures founded on this ideal of oneness. At a grassroots level, social action is being undertaken to inspire a new way of life in which neighborhoods and communities function around spiritual principles such as oneness, love, kindness, and recognizing the nobility in all people. One of these initiatives is the study circle.
