Description
In Advancing the Oneness of Humanity: The Olympic Games Kiser Barnes takes us
on an exhilarating journey to the heart of the Olympic spirit. This compelling
narrative explores how Bahá'u'lláh's vision of the unity and oneness of humanity
resonates with the Olympic Games through their shared emphasis on bringing
together the diverse peoples of the world together, in a spirit of harmony and
cooperation. His verse, 'The earth is but one country, and mankind its citizens' -
penned in 1882, only a few years before the first modern Olympic Games in 1896
- aligns with the mission of the Olympic movement to transcend national and
cultural boundaries, fostering a global community united by the values of peace,
friendship and mutual respect.
Through vivid storytelling and insightful analysis, Barnes reveals the profound
impact of the Olympics on global unity, inspiring generations to embrace these
ideals. The Olympics serve as a platform where athletes from around the world
come together, embodying the principle of human solidarity and demonstrating
how vying with one another in the sports arena can coexist with camaraderie and
understanding.
