This work represents the latest publication, in English, of papers presented at the 2001 Irfan Colloquia and Seminars for the purpose of presenting studies grounded on the writings of the Baha'i Faith. Although these fourteen papers are scholarly in nature, they are written for presentation, and are therefore highly accessible and engaging. The main them of the 2001 Colloquia was Mysticism and the Baha'i Faith. Almost half of the papers published in this volume deal with various aspects and dimensions of that theme.
