Have you ever looked up at the sky, and wondered how the universe evolved? That sense of wonder, says our Moments of Meaning guest Faraneh Vargha-Khadem, defines our need for transcendence. 

In this episode of the Moments of Meaning podcast, Professor Varga-Khadem, a cognitive neuroscientist and a Baha'i, reveals how the Baha'i teachings led her on a journey of inner discovery that culminated in her fascinating, insightful profession – and her lifelong interest in discovering and studying the spiritual capacities we human beings all possess.

Please listen here as Professor Varga-Khadem explains her moment of meaning and what it has meant for her inner and outer life.
