The Australian Bahá'í community
is a committed and regular
participant in interfaith
dialogue and interfaith projects
in Australia.
For several decades, we have
welcomed leaders and representatives
of other faith communities to read
from their scriptures during the
services held at the
Baha’i House of Worship in
Sydney.
Our active role in interfaith
dialogue is in accord with
Baha’u’llah’s call to associate with
the followers of all religions in a
spirit of love and friendship. The
Australian Bahá'í community is a
member of the Australian Partnership
of Religious Organisations. We feel a sense of harmony with
other religious communities because
we believe all the revealed faiths
originate from the same Source (God)
and are essentially one.
Religious prejudice is one of the
last great barriers dividing
humanity against itself. We believe
that religious leaders have an
obligation to work to overcome
prejudice and recognise that
spiritual life constitutes one
unbounded reality, equally
accessible to everyone.
