Today I visited with the friends at the Irfan Colloqium sessions held at Louhelen Baha'i School in Michgan. There I presented asome excerpts from the book in the form of two presentation, both in English and Persian.
After the talk many were interested to know more about the Jews and the Baha'is of Iran. In particular the integration of the early Baha'is from the Jewish background into the Baha'i Community was of great interest and generated audience participation which continued after the talk.
One of the audience's questions conerned the difficulty in braking away from past traditions when becoming a Baha'i. From anecdotes and stories, I related that most portray this transformation as slow and difficult.
