Overview"The Reality of Man presents a glimpse of the unique depth, range, and creative potency of Baha'u'llah's writings on such fundamental questions as: What is a human being? What is the purpose of human existence? Where did we come from? Is there a God? What is God like? Do we each have a preordained role or mission in life? Is there life after death? Are some religions ""true"" and others ""false""? How can one evaluate religions? This compilation provides a sample of the Baha'i religion's vast teachings on the nature of man and answers these questions and more."
