🌸 Happy Ram Navami! 🌸 Today many are honoring Lord Rama – the noble hero of the Ramayana who embodied humility, virtue, and dharma (moral duty) in his roles as husband, brother, and king. May his legacy bring peace and strength. 🏹🌿 #RamNavami #LordRama #Ramayana #Hinduism

The #Annunciation celebrates archangel Gabriel appearing to Mary, but angels also appear in Judaism, Islam, Zoroastrianism and the Bahá’í faith – guiding, protecting, & delivering divine messages. Do you believe in #angels? Drop an 😇 if you do! #ReligiousArt #WorldReligions

💧 Happy #WorldWaterDay! 💧 Water is sacred across faiths – Hindus bathe in the Ganges, Jews use the mikveh, Christians practice baptism, Muslims perform wudu before prayers. One element, many traditions. Let's protect it. 🌍 #SacredWater #WorldReligions

This #altar, still at the Buddhist Temple in Chicago, was built inside a WWII Japanese internment camp using salvaged materials. ☸️ On this date, 1942, the order creating the camps was signed. But Japanese Americans’ resilience and faith persisted. #JapaneseAmerican #Buddhism

St. Patrick’s Day: More Than Shamrocks & Green Beer 🍀 St. Patrick, Ireland’s patron saint, helped spread Christianity in the 5th century & legend says, explained the Trinity with shamrocks. Fun fact: 1st St. Pat’s Day parade was in America (1601) – not Ireland! #StPatricksDay

Heard of #Zoroastrianism but don’t know much else? 🤔 Today begins #Muktad, the final 10 days of the Zoroastrian calendar year. Fravashis (the divine spirits in all things) are welcomed and honored, especially those of ancestors. The #Faravahar symbol represents the #Fravashi.

One of the best parts of #Ramadan? #Interfaith #iftars. At this “Abraham’s Table” event @Western_Carolina we discussed: What should a believer’s attitude be when faced with calamity? Great conversation AND amazing food. Blessings in the final 10 days of Ramadan. 🌙 #multifaith
