: : When reading the instructions for the "long obligatory prayer" One finds "raise hands in supplication" etc. Does this
: : mean raise and lower them, or keep them up during the recitation? Anyone know of any detailed explainations of
: : obligatory prayer either from the Central Figures, Institutions, or even pilgrim's notes?

: Since the Revelation of Baha'u'llah continues "the process of the rise and setting of the Sun of Truth" (p. 117, WOB). Could these obligatory prayers be related to those in the Islamic Revelation?

: This may be. However I would be interested in finding conclusive evidence of this. Obligatory Prayer is one of the rare and precious rituals given to us by the Blessed Beauty. The idea of performing it as precisely as possible the way it was revealed, would be truly wonderful!
