Come One, Come All
The Baha'i Lotus Temple situated in New Delhi, India. The Baha'i religion was founded by Bahaullah in 19th century Persia and it emphasizes spiritual unity of all humankind and considers well-known prophets and messengers like Abraham, Buddha, Jesus, Muhammad etc. as divine messengers of the faith. The temple itself doesn't have any religious symbols. It is a very large space that is designed for self-reflection and meditation where followers of all religion are invited to reflect and pray to what they themselves believe in.
