Study Circles are regular gatherings of people interested in an in-depth and systematic study of the Baha'i Writings. A series of specialized classes with trained facilitators are available and the classes are held at the Baha'i Center, private homes, or elsewhere depending on the wishes of the participants.
The purpose of this study is to gain a deeper understanding of the Holy Word, begin to comprehend the meanings and then find ways to apply the Word to our lives through spiritual transformation and service to humanity. The frequency and duration of each study circle are set by the group, and a facilitator serves to maintain the focus and pace. Every participant in the group also makes a commitment to action or service. The first book in the series is entitled Reflections on the Life of the Spirit. This book focuses on univeral spiritual values, the power of prayer, and the spiritual life we live after departing from this world.

The heavenly teachings are expressed in parable in order to be understood and preserved for ages to come. When the spiritually minded dive deeply into the ocean of their meaning they bring to the surface the pearls of their inner significance. There is no greater pleasure than to study God’s Word with a spiritual mind." -Abdu'l-Baha
