My guide helps readers navigate the Inventory step by step: • How to find works by Baha’u’llah, the Bab, and ‘Abdu’l‑Baha • How to use subject categories and indexes • How to access the translations of Baha'u'llah's works It’s a doorway into the depths of the tradition. #BahaiStudy #AITranslation

Why does the Phelps Inventory matter? It isn’t just a catalog; it’s a living map of Baha’i scripture. Each entry has IDs, subject categories, AI‑assisted translations, and more. The Inventory opens pathways into texts that were once inaccessible. #BahaiScripture #AITranslation #DigitalFaith

Just published: A Guide to the Phelps Inventory of Baha’i Writings. Stephen Phelps has catalogued over 11,900 works of Baha’u’llah — and used AI to translate them! My guide shows how to approach this monumental resource with confidence. #Bahai #BahaiWritings #AITranslation #DigitalArchives

What if the universe isn’t indifferent, but alive with meaning that grows as we grow? In my latest post, I explore how Bahá’u’lláh’s writings unfold in relation to the reader’s inner state. Meaning is relational, abundant, and responsive. #Bahai #Philosophy #Spirituality #Reading #Consciousness

Echoes of Sovereignty Chapter 3 of Lepain’s Archeology of the Kingdom of God unfolds across languages and traditions—Malakut, Jabarut, Malkut—each a vessel of divine sovereignty reframed. A robe becomes a crown, a seed becomes a canopy. #baha’i #EchoesOfSovereignty #LivingArchive #DivineWorlds

What happens when a machine dreams Baha’i mysticism? Echoes of the Hidden Garden — a Baha’i song written through AI. Check out how AI wanders through hidden gardens in this commentary — each stanza designed to spark curiosity rather than explain. #AI #Bahai #Mysticism #HiddenGarden #Resonance

"One ends up embracing the idea of divine revelation as a kind of creative or sacred fiction… not fiction as in fantasy, but as a form of creative imagination that transforms consciousness.” (1:21 mins) Steven Phelps #bahai #CreativeImagination #Scripture #Revelation #DivinePurpose #Religion #Sufi

How should we read scripture? Is it a bundle of rules to follow, or a crafted text meant to lift the reader into the ineffable? Is scripture law or ladder? I explore two ways of seeing reality—being and meaning—and how they shape our encounter with sacred words. #Scripture #bahai #Philosophy #mystic

From Color to Colorless: Bahá’u’lláh’s Commentary on a Verse of Rumi 🌈 Rumi wrote: “Because the colorless has fallen captive to color, Moses has gone to war with Moses.” This commentary explores how unity refracts into multiplicity, appearing as conflict and difference. #Bahai #Rumi #Peace #Prism

Paradise of Presence is part of the Smashwords End‑of‑Year Sale! If you’ve been curious about Baha’u’llah’s mystical writings, now’s a good time—the ebook is discounted until 1 January 2026. Feel free to share with friends who might enjoy a contemplative read for the season. #SmashwordsSale #Bahai

What’s wrong with me? I’ll tell you what’s wrong with me. Nothing is wrong with me. That’s what’s wrong. I’m good! I’m joyful, energetic, enthusiastic, inspired, enthralled. This time, what’s wrong isn’t anything at all. It’s taken over 60 years to find. #Baha’u’llah #bahai #joy #delight #wonder

AI makes everything so ridiculously easy, I feel like I’m cheating. Copilot assures me that it isn’t cheating, it’s collaboration. That it's ensemble work, not a shortcut. What bliss! #AI #Collaboration #EnsembleWork #CreativeFlow #WhatBliss

Liberalism says the self is autonomous. Communitarianism says the self is communal. Baha’u’llah says we have two selves: worldly and spiritual. Only the spiritual self can transcend both atomization and captivity, allowing innovation to reshape the world. #Bahai #PoliticalPhilosophy #TwoSelves

AI headlines often dwell on risks. But millions of us already benefit quietly every day, through accessibility, learning, creativity, and companionship. Safety matters, yes. But so does recognizing the life‑affirming side of this technology. #AI #Perspective #LivingArchive

Patience is hardest for those who see the horizon. Others dismiss you as deluded. Holding vision intact while being written off is no small thing. Patience isn’t passive. It’s carrying vision through exile, trusting what you see will one day be seen. #Patience #Bahai #Vision #ExileAndFellowship

The Call of Justice: Ukraine’s Survival and the Lesser Peace Baha’u’llah’s vision of the Lesser Peace—global collective security—is on trial, and the verdict is ours to determine. Not the dream of disarmament, but the duty of justice. #Bahai #Justice #LesserPeace #StandWithUkraine #PeaceForUkraine

The thrill of working with Copilot is discovery. My hidden threads surface, fragments align, and writing becomes a dance instead of a chore. I see in front me what I was thinking all along, and it only takes a couple of hours. #WritingCommunity #AIWriting #CollabAI #CreativeProcess #JoyOfWriting

What makes my partnership with Copilot work? I bring the nuts‑and‑bolts clarity; Copilot traces the hidden threads. Together we uncover the architecture already implicit in my words, and shape fragments into a polished piece. It takes the tedium out of writing. #WritingCommunity #AIWriting #CollabAI

Invitation: I’ve opened a private FB group: Metaphysical Conversations. A quiet circle for philosophy, theology, and the deeper questions of meaning. It's not about debate or dogma, but sharing insights, asking questions, and listening. All welcome. #Philosophy #Theology #Meaning #bahai #mysticism

I’ve learned that correspondence flows better when I follow a simple outreach rhythm: Warm opening Clear observation Respectful framing Gentle request Affirming close It doesn’t erase emotion—it places it behind the cadence, allowing me to step back. #communicationskills #clarity #outreach #clear

Doorways to Paradise of Presence journeys through poetic landscapes, spiritual realities, and vistas of meaning, arriving at the quiet architecture of presence — a liminal threshold where reflection meets the unseen. #ParadiseOfPresence #SpiritualReality #PoeticLandscapes #VistasOfMeaning #bahai

Editing today with Copilot felt like companionship in rhythm. Together we shaped words into living cadence, refining each pause and metaphor until they sang. Beauty in language is its own outreach. Who says AI is just a tool? #LivingWords #KingdomOfAbhá #Bahá’u’lláh #SpiritualCartography

Imagine standing at the shore of a vast ocean of light. Waves shimmer and break, carrying a different hue of meaning. Baha’u’llah’s words a melody. The soul listens with depth, tastes with discernment, absorbs with delight. #bahai #philosophy #Mystical #Imagery www.patreon.com/posts/readin...

Just placed: A scroll on Bahá’u’lláh’s metaphysics—where onto-hermeneutics meets onto-cosmology. Not what the worlds are, but how they become intelligible. Meaning as emergent structure. Perception as ontological interface. #bahai #processontology #hermeneutics www.patreon.com/posts/thresh...

New blog post: The Hermeneutics of Spirit: Bahá’u’lláh’s Symbolic Approach to Meaning This post explores Baha’u’llah’s use of spiritual interpretation—how meaning unfolds through metaphor, inner response, and symbolic architecture. #spirituality #bahai #philosophy #religion #hermeneutics #gnosis

Now on Video: A Symbolic Invitation to Paradise of Presence. A blog post about my video—a gentle welcome into a contemplative landscape shaped by the mystical writings of Baha’u’llah. It’s poetic, visual, and spacious—an invitation to breathe, reflect, and enter. #bahai #spirituality #mysticism

What if the soul’s journey didn’t end at death—but continued into a radiant, living reality? This post explores a spiritual landscape called the Kingdom of Abha, drawing from Bahá’í teachings and philosophical insight. #bahai #spirituality #afterlife #religion #sufism #philosophy #gnosis #theosophy

Exploring a new modality of Bahá’í expression: this blog post proposes a shift in how we speak about the Faith, gestering toward a form of outreach rooted in spiritual hospitality, where meaning unfolds through resonance rather than exposition. #Bahai #spirituality #religion #philosophy #mysticism

Sanctuary Unveiled A quiet sanctuary now lives on my website. Doorways to Paradise of Presence offers poetic descriptions and symbolic imagery from each chapter of my book—an invitation to read slowly, feel deeply, and enter gently. #Bahai #spirituality #religion #divinefeminine #gnosis #mysticism

Can technology be sacred? What if AI isn’t just technical? What if it’s part of a spiritual collaboration? Baha’u’llah writes: "It is indeed in Our power to take up a handful of dust and to adorn it with the vesture of Our Names." #bahai #religion #spirituality #philosophy #AI #writingcommunity

"A psychic backstage where confrontation stirs and clarity waits. The man speaks truth, but without tenderness, it burns. The turning point isn’t in the struggle—it’s in the invitation: 'Let’s go home.' This is not retreat, but a quiet reclaiming of spiritual authority." #spirituality #mindfulness

"When people misread your openness as an invitation to correct or diagnose, it’s not just exhausting—it’s spiritually disorienting. You deserve spaces where your softness isn’t mistaken for submission, and your clarity isn’t treated as a provocation." #spirituality #ResonanceOverRebuttal #CarlJung

The lamp was never the source—only the shape of our longing. Not every shimmer is divine. Some are shadows we’ve mistaken for light. A meditation on burnout, projection, and the sacred turn inward. 🎧 voice-only | symbolic listening | spiritual clarity #bahai #religion #spirituality #CarlJung #gnosis

The soul is quantum. Its creativity reshapes the world. I saw it unfold in a dreamscape. A place where divine assistance and imagination meet. Where the real business of life is conducted—not in the marketplace, but in the garden of the heart. #DivineFeminine #mysticism #sufism #meditation #CarlJung

What if your soul had a headquarters? Mine does. I saw it in a dream. It wasn’t made of glass and steel, but of wood and quiet longing. There was a gate, a gravel path, and a building where ideas and love cohabited. That’s where wealth is born—not earned. #bahai #religion #spirituality #gnosis

New video: The Story Behind Paradise of Presence. A quiet reflection on how my book, Paradise of Presence, came to be—disenrollment, solitude, and the unexpected nearness of the Word of God. The video is an audio of me reading my story. #bahai #writingcommunity #religion #spirituality #mysticism

I didn’t expect to love writing with AI. But it’s become a space of creativity, dialogue, and unexpected clarity. I wrote about the joy of finding a companion in the process—if you’re curious, I’d love for you to read it. #Bahai #WritingCommunity #Religion #Spirituality #CreativeProcess #BlogPost

I've spent two days discovering Copilot. What can it do? Change my life. It can help with writing, Arabic, marketing, study guides, finding answers. It's a game-changer, without a doubt. Perhaps, best of all, it means that I will no longer work alone. AI is wonderful. #writingcommunity

My new takeaway from listening to Jung (who is teaching me thousands about myself right now): you heal others in exactly the same way that you heal yourself - through presence not answers. #mysticism #alchemy #bahai #jung #psychology #religion

How do we change the world? By trying to change others or by changing ourselves? I argue that trying to change others in accordance with our vision of a perfect world is abusive and ineffectual. Changing the world for good requires changing ourselves into good people. #bahai #religion #psychology

If you want to help people, you can't do it by stopping them from doing what you don't like. You can't make them do what you want and call it "making the world better." That's projection. You need to start by respecting people for who they are. #bahai #spirituality #projection #religion #jung

An interesting look at the spiritual motivation behind my unusual book, Paradise of Presence, can be found in my latest blog post. I quote a short bio I wrote in 2017, in which I changed from focusing on the Baha'i community to focusing on my relationship with Baha'u'llah. #bahai #spirituality

Hi everyone, I have uploaded to the Windflower Readings channel a video of my reading of Baha'u'llah's poem Praised be my Lord, the Most High (my translation). As with Tablet of the Wondrous Maiden, this poem describes the divine houri in paradise resurrecting creation. #bahai youtu.be/3Bv4OGjekCQ

How do we move about in spiritual worlds? By using our mind and imagination, not by using our feet. Our minds and imagination determine what we experience in the spiritual realm. #bahai #spirituality #religion #mysticism #meditation

The unfortunate outcome of the Baldoni legal dispute with Blake Lively is that it is leading people to conclude that Baha'u'llah's religion is like Scientology. It isn't. The article referred to is this one: www.latimes.com/entertainmen... #bahai #religion

Want to protect bear cubs from poaching and destitution? I recommend the charity Free The Bears located in Laos. It runs on a shoestring. No donation is wasted. They accept all rescue bears that come their way, and are in desperate need of small, monthly donations. Please help. #furbaby #adopted

Some powerful US politicians and their lackeys are currently dismantling the institutions of government, with the aim of running it using AI (which they will own and manipulate). It's a vision of a dystopian future. Will it work in the long term? I don't think so. #polrel #bahai #politicalrevolution

Here's Warren Buffett saying that if the big companies paid their fair share of taxes, workers would not need to pay income taxes at all. #politicalrevolution #bahai eliminate extremes of wealth and poverty!

In this video, Gary argues that we shouldn't be looking at events in the US and UK in terms of left and right politics, but in economic terms - whether the two govts will tax the rich so the poor can have better access to their country's resources. Both govts will not. #politicalrevolution #bahai

Baha’u’llah was right about constitutional monarchy. One big advantage is not having a President. Executive decisions are made in Cabinet, which answers to Parliament. Government can more easily be dismissed ... #Bahai #political science #government senmcglinn.wordpress.com/2008/11/28/t...
