Ten Days in the Light of Acca
'Ten Days in the Light of Acca' Summary
Julia M. Grundy's 'Ten Days in the Light of Acca' provides a firsthand account of a pilgrimage to Akko, a city in Ottoman Empire that held immense significance for the Baháʼí Faith. This journey, undertaken in 1905, was the author's first encounter with the Holy Land and the teachings of ʻAbdu'l-Bahá, the leader of the Baháʼí Faith at that time. The book captures the pilgrims' interactions with ʻAbdu'l-Bahá, their visits to significant sites related to Baháʼí history, and the author's personal reflections on the spiritual impact of the pilgrimage. Grounded in the author's faith, it delves into the core principles of the Baháʼí Faith and its relevance to global unity, peace, and harmony. Grundy's personal experiences and insights offer a glimpse into the early days of the Baháʼí Faith and its growing influence in the world. While the book is a unique and personal account, it should be noted that the Baháʼí Faith considers its own writings and the teachings of its leaders as authoritative. This book serves as a historical account of a spiritual journey, offering readers a window into the faith and its evolving presence in the world.Book Details
