Windflower Translations Library - Cosmic Conversations

Catalogue

Because Baha’u’llah wrote in Arabic and Persian, English readers meet his writings through translation. This collection gathers translations by various scholars, with a particular focus on works related to Baha’u’llah’s mystical writings. All translations appear here with the appropriate permissions or rights held by the translators.

Explore the library through four pathways:

Mystical Texts. Billowing clouds of colour drift across the frame, dark blues and rust on one side giving way to glowing pinks and pale gold on the other. At the centre, where the colours meet, a faint human face emerges from the mist.

Poetry. Long, curving ribbons of paper faintly marked with text swirl across the frame in soft pinks, creams, mauves and deep ruby.

Visions of the eternal and the inner journey

Interpretations. Small torn fragments of paper in pinks, reds and gold float in the air above an open book, its printed pages softly blurred in blue-grey light.

Discussions. Two women sit on the ground facing each other in conversation, one in black and one in flowing white, surrounded by swirling clouds of coral, pink and smoky grey.
