Introduction

The Second Baha'i World Congress commemorated the historic 100th anniversary of the passing of Baha'u'llah, the Prophet Founder of the Baha'i Faith.

30,000 Baha'is traveled from every major capital and countless small villages around the world in order to gather in New York City in November of 1992 in an extraordinary assemblage of humankind.
