One God,
one human family
All the great religions worship the same Creator. Their followers therefore should be in complete harmony with one another.
They who recite the verses of the All-Merciful in the most melodious of tones will perceive in them that with which the sovereignty of earth and heaven can never be compared. From them they will inhale the divine fragrance of My worlds -- worlds which today none can discern save those who have been endowed with vision through this sublime, this beauteous Revelation. Say: These verses draw hearts that are pure unto those spiritual worlds that can neither be expressed in words nor intimated by allusion. Blessed be those who hearken."
Baha'u'llah: Kitab-i-Aqdas
Few things can unite the hearts of diverse peoples accross the artificial boundaries we have made of race, religion, culture and nationality better than music. Spiritual music reminds us that we are all one people and we were created to love and respect one another as members of one human family
