I miss sharing heart to heart at study circles. Bahai’s have a workshop-type of “study” where we go through a book together, study Holy Writings, dissect their meaning and what they mean to us, pray together, share thoughts, play games, study the lives of the Prophets, memorize some of our favorite passages together. It brings a group close together in spirit.
Going to a Baha’i Center for a monthly meeting, even with prayers, doesn’t even come close. It is like going to church and sitting, vs. a prayer meeting. Even getting together at a feast in a home for formal readings and prayers is not the same. In a study circle, you meet weekly, you are committed to finishing the book together, and somehow it opens hearts to each other. I haven’t felt that for a year now, and it is greatly missed.
