Default Concerning the Baha'i Faith?

Could anyone tell me which book they follow? Their "Bible" so to speak? AND where you can get a copy of it. I've already looked at their websites and couldn't find it.

look for the children's story "The Blind Man And The Elephant"
this sums it up nicely

From what little I know of them, they claim to be a faith that accepts all faiths... So I don't think they have scripture of their own. I could be mistaken, however.

We don't have a single book. Rather, all the authenticated texts by the Central Figures in the Faith, the Bab, Baha'u'llah, and Abdu'l-Baha constitute our scripture.

I would suggest as an introduction, that you get a copy of The Hidden Words. It is available as text at http://bahai-library.com/?file=bahaullah_hidden_words

Most of the most important Scriptures translated into English are available on line at http://bahai-library.com/?collection=Scripture

A more complete listing of materials available can be found at http://www.bahaibookstore.com/catalog.cfm?CatPos=240

If you have further questions, contact me directly.
