2012 is the 46th anniversary of my declaration of faith in Bahá'u'lláh and His religion, and I found some interesting material when I was searching the Bahá'í texts for some quotes to include in a small devotional to celebrate my 'spiritual' birthday.
I thought others might be interested in what appears to be an age-old concept renewed yet again. Spiritual awakening is the topic of the latest article from the Baha'i site at BellaOnline.com.
