Baha’is host discussion on health and healing

The Baha’is of Las Cruces announced an open discussion to take place Sunday, Jan. 12, titled “Divine Remedies: A fireside discussion on health and healing.”

“This is an opportunity to learn what the world’s faith traditions have to teach about physical as well as spiritual health and healing,” the group stated in a news release. “Guests are also invited to share their own experiences on this topic.”

The event is open for families including children, and the group said light refreshments as well as entertainment (by musician Darrell Elmer Rodgers) would be part of the event, which begins at 3 p.m. at 2909 Devendale Avenue in Las Cruces. Guests are asked to refrain from wearing fragrances of any kind due to allergies.

Further information is available at 575-556-9650 or via email at localspiritualassembly@yahoo.com.

As Darrell Rodgers explained in a previous Las Cruces Bulletin article, Baha’i teaching holds “that all the world’s religions stem from the same god, but because they were revealed in different places, at different times, mankind has divided them. (Founding teacher

Baha’u’llah) wrote over 100 volumes expressing spiritual teachings, which he said remain constant from age to age, and social teachings which change through the ages to foster greater and greater unity among humankind.”
