<h2><span style="color: #6f5b44;">The Baha&#8217;i Faith: A Brief History</span></h2>

<blockquote><p>A brief video history of the Baha&#8217;i Faith in Australia and how the Baha&#8217;i community has developed. You can learn more about the Baha&#8217;is of Australia here <a title="Offical Aus Bahai Website" href="http://www.bahai.org.au">Bahai.org.au</a></p>

<p>The Baha&#8217;i Faith is the youngest of the world&#8217;s independent religions and came to Australia in 1920. Its founder, <a title="Bahaullah" href="http://www.bahaullah.org/" target="_blank">Bahá&#8217;u'lláh</a> (1817-1892), is regarded by Bahá&#8217;ís as the most recent in the line of Messengers of God that stretches back beyond recorded time and that includes Abraham, Moses, Buddha, Zoroaster, Christ and Muhammad.</p>
<p>The central theme of Bahá&#8217;u'lláh&#8217;s message is that humanity is one single race and that the day has come for its unification in one global society. God, Bahá&#8217;u'lláh said, has set in motion historical forces that are breaking down traditional barriers of race, class, creed, and nation and that will, in time, give birth to a universal civilization. The principal challenge facing the peoples of the earth is to accept the fact of their oneness and to assist the processes of unification.</p>

<h2><span style="color: #6f5b44;">The Baha&#8217;i Faith: A Global Community</span></h2>
<p>One of the purposes of the Bahá&#8217;í Faith is to help make this possible. A worldwide community of some five million Bahá&#8217;ís, representative of most of the nations, races and cultures on earth, is working to give Bahá&#8217;u'lláh&#8217;s teachings practical effect. Their experience will be a source of encouragement to all who share their vision of humanity as one global family and the earth as one homeland.</p>
