Illumine My Being is a collection of prayers and meditations from Baha'i scripture that are intended to provide spiritual healing for the individual during times of crisis. Many of these prayers ask God for the healing of the individual as well as the community, the nation, and the world.

These extracts from the sacred writings explain how individual healing can be achieved through one's relationship with God, and they also elaborate on the nature of spiritual healing and how the healing of the entire human race can be achieved. Healing has always been an essential component of religion, and these prayers and meditations are meant to provide comfort, hope, and reassurance to anyone during these troubled times.
